WHITBY Representative James Holden Phone House 18 Office 434 PUPILS HEAR OF SAFETY MEASURES P, B, La Trobe of Safety League Visits Whitby Public Schools (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, March 29.--~Between six and seven hundred children, pupils of the public and separate schools here, assembled in the town hall auditorium yesterday afternoon, af- ter recess, to attend an {llustrated lecture on safety, presented by P. B. LaTrobe, representative of the Ontario Safety League. The pu- pila were accompanied by their teachers and after the program had been concluded Mr, LaTrobe ex- pressed himself pleased with the good order which prevailed and the courteous attention which had been given him by the youthful au- dience. Chief Gunson rendered as. sistance by directing the children into the hall and by operating the lantern for the first few slides. The pietures. shown depicted the dangers resulting from careless- ness in manifold ways such as crossing intersections, motoring, walking on rallway tracks and so forth, The abe's of safety, the speaker claimed were "Always be careful." Last year in Ontario, he pointed out, there were one thou- sand five hundred and forty-eight persons who lost their lives througn the motor car, an increase of nine- ty-seven over the previous year On the other hand there was a decrease in the number of children killed on the streets indicating that young Ontario 1s gradually realiz- ing the perils encountered on the highways. Mr. LaTohe cautioned about the habit of "jay walking" and angle crossing at intersections. The illustrations were vary graphic and convincing. Mr. LaTohe also showed a two- reel motion picture play entitled "Ask Raddy", which dealt with the story of a little girl, her bro- ther and their hoy chum. The lat- ter two, while playing with a load- ed gun, narrowly missed slaying the child when they accidentally shot her. Fortunately she did not receive a serious wound, byt as a direct result the children of the neighborhood decided to form a safety first club, The film then disclosed the various ways in which children might assist one another to avoid accidents, In addition to the lecture the as- sembled schools joined in the sing- ing of the National Anthem, "0 Canada' and "The Maple Leaf for Ever."
