none Examiner Published by Canadian Newspapers limitch to Bayfield Street Barrie Obtario won months Brian Sleight General Mans or WEBDAY AUGUST IDS Polod Need More Thcin To Reduce Higthiy Toll There has been succession of hor rible road accidents in Oniairo in recent weeks In some of these accidents whole families have been wl ed out in others one or two have been lied and the rest sobadly injured they may be maimed for life Civic Holiday weekend in this district was no exception Many of thevictims are young chil dren teenagers and young people in their twenties and thirties This tragic ivaste of human lives goes on week at ter week month after month What can be done about it Educa tion is suggested by highway safety groups But it is proving much more difficult to educate motorists in this re gard than it should indeed when one considers the continuing high toll in deaths and damage thero may be rea son to ask whether education in safety is making any real progress at all Thereis large segment of theme toring public that remains openly resist ant to all efforts to persuade them to adopt safety measures The methods emplloyed up to the present do not seem to ave penetrated the hard shell that requirevmore than warnin encrusts their minds And yet this problem is not one that applies only to motoring safety The disregard for pro per driving habits is but symptom of moreggeneral social disease Perhaps the symptoniitselt cannot be cured Unless society applies itself and works to adjust the basic malady highway safety will remain burning problem There is of course no defence for highway carelessness There is no de fence for motorists who reject social responsibility Butsurely the disease is not incurable Surely the most stub born and careless can be made to con form more consistently with the rules necessary for the perservation of life and limb But of an may gs and ad vice More stern action is indicated against offenders The public needs to he reminded constantly that traffic rul es must be obeyed Since ordinary suaslon appears futile it may take stiff penaltiesto make motorists realize that the law has Eurpose and that privileges cannot be used with impunity Womens institutes seldoiiifailto re spond to an appeal of human need and perhaps their sympathies are especially warm towards the needs of children So when the sponsorschild project was introduced year ago requestsfor child to adopt came in to the Fed erated Womens Institutes of Ontario office in Toronto at an amazing rate In cooperation with the Canadian Save the Children Fund close to 800 institutes have asked for child to adopt number of Simeoe county institutes along with other branches in all parts of Ontario provide 560 year towards the maintenance of child in its native country Their sponsorship of the children is much more than facts and figures with theWi members They speak affection ately of their ado ted children and wait anxiously for eitersand pictures from faroff lands The women ex ressed desire to do more than send sponsoring sum and manyarenowbusy makingclothingfor the chlidre Birthdays Christmas and etherespecial events are not forgotten as the women take pleasure in sending gifts of clothing and other treats to the youngsters living in the for corners of the world DOWN MEMORY LANE 30 YEARS AGO IN TOWN Barrie Examiner Aug 1932 On tario Motor
