What Is
A Trifle—
A loose thread a lost minute,
a penny more or less? Any
oi these things may lead to
unexpected but important
consequences.
}ust how important is the
penny? The ads in this paper
give you a good illustration.
The pennies you save, multi
plied by the minutes you gain,
will become savings that mount
into the dollars. These are trifles
worth while.

A thing of beauty is a joy for

The Use
of
0
Highways
by
Pedestrians
KEEP TO THE RIGHT is a rule which does
not,apply to the pedestrian using the
highways. When walking along a high
way or road, always stay on the left side, so
as to face oncoming traffic. The person who
walks on the right with vehicular traffic must
constantly look to the rear to see if a car is
approaching. As the man, No. 3, in the above
illustration, he cannot see car No. 1 and if it
is making very little noise he will not hear it.
This is doubly dangerous at night, as a pedes
trian cannot be easily seen by a driver when he
is facing the lights of cars coming from the
opposite direction. Walk as pedestrian No. 4
in the illustration. He is facing vehicle No. 2,
and can easily see how much room he must
give to avoid the danger of accident. The
person who walks with traffic on the right side
of a highway places his life in great danger,
as well as the lives of those in automobiles, as
striking a person could easily cause a car to
be turned over, inflicting serious injury or
even death to its occupants. If you must walk
on a public road, KEEP TO THE LEFT!

Traffic Violations are increasing daily—motor vehicle accidents also are greater as the speed
mania grips the nation and carelessness in driving remains unchecked. A comprehensive study of
this ever-present problem is being sponsored by this group of O’Neill merchants who are present
