CAUTION CAMPAIGN
A Safety First Measure For Auto
1 Drivers to Exercise Caution
At Eailroad Crossings.
Ffea Miar Dally.
One of the greatest menaces to the
country Is the reckless auto driver
who shows no regard for his own
safety or the Bafety of his fellow man
and in the hope of creating a greater
show of caution on the part of -the
traveling public the Burlington rail
road is urging a Safety First cam
paign, tq cover-jthis Important part
of the' safety" first movement.
The man or woman who tries to
beat a railroad train across the cross
ing is one of the chief factors in the
list of auto fatalities the country
over and while they may in several
cases get across before the train,
there is sooner or later coming the
time when they will merely tie the
train and then comes death and sor
row In its wake.
If every person traveling the high
ways of the country would do the
three important things: Stop, Look
and. listen, there would be a very
small percentage of accidents occur-
lng instead of hundreds every day
in the year. The engineer of a
locomotive has set measures that he
must follow to insure safety to his
Dassengers and among these is a re
snect for signals, orders and other
mediums provided to insure safety
to the traveling public, while tiie au
tomobile driver has merely to siop ai
a crossing, look and listen for an ap
Droachine train and if the train is
coming wait for its passage. Many
have thought themselves well able
to beat the train across, the engine
dies on the crossing and the result la
that there is the destruction of -the
Ruto and its occupants. A few mo
ments delay would mean nothing to
the occupants of the car, except, per
haps, their lives.
Every person In the country and
esneciallv those who drive autos
should join the "Stop Before a Rail
mad Crossine" club and Insure a
long life to themselves and their fam
ily and friends.

From Mondays Dally.
Yesterday afternoon Ihe local C.
B. & Q. baseball team annexed an
other game to their credit when theyi
trimmed up the Magnolia club of
Omaha to the score of 8 to 6, the!
grounds being rough and slow on ac
count of the heavy rainfall, but the
members of the local organization
played a very pleasing game .thru-
out the battle and up to the last In-;
ning held the visitors by a wide mar
gin, but in that stanza the Magnolias
ran In four scores and for a few mo
ments grew dangerous, but were
held without any further damage.
Several .errors, a misjudged fly and
one base hit in the last frame ac
counted for the runs garnered by the
visitors.
The hurling for the locals was by
Herb Swanson and he had twelve of
the visitors . on his list when the
smoke of battle rolled away, while
Gordon, who "did the work on the
mound for the Magnolias was only
able to whiff one of the locals. '
The fans were treated to a very
sensational catch in the second inn
ing when Herbert Klauschie, who
operates in the center garden, spear
ed a hard drive and made a wonder
ful peg to the home plate, shutting
off a run and the play was one that
proved a real treat for the assembled
tans. ' '
