“Always Be Careful.” is the slogan

I of automobiles. If put in practice. !
: you cannot go wrong. It covers a
multitude of don'ts and puts you on
the safe side at the same time.
This is an old topic, but never
goes amiss, for you cannot be too
careful at anytime. Many persons
have found this to be true—being
unmindful of this saving—and have
regretted it bitterly. either as a
result of injury or death of some-
I one. It is rot only a slogan, but
there is a purpose and warning !
; behind it that should be heeded.
With the increasing number of ,
i traffic accidents—avoidable ones— j
• we pause to wonder what the causes j
i are. You may not attach much im- !
! portance to it at the present time. |
Will you wait till then’ Other loved j
ones are just as precious to their
families as yours are to you. Won’t '
you consider them.’ Even if it takes
loi.ger to be careful, isn’t the price
worth it’ It may save many a heart
ache and many a dollar. Think of
