Act Free Wednesday January CI Mill Numter OBIS f The cletytf cut by Rev Andrew Knox Presbyterian Church The distressing loss of life In automobile accidents in this community and in places should cause each one of us to ask if there is anything we can do as citizens parents human beings endowed with a sense or responsibility for ourselves and others to reduce this wasteful cam ago That more people arc killed in traffic mishaps than in warfare should register in our consciousness some solid intentions to change this sad situation as well as profound regret over persons we have known and loved whose lives were snuffed out In other words there is a moral responsibility devolving upon every mature individual in our society to make our streets and highways safer by the development of safer drivers safer highways and safer powered vehicles Increasingly ministers in their pulpits are emphasizing the moral and spiritual aspects of the problem On Nov 16 the Rev Lloyd Cracknel said in St s Church in London I think that killing people on the highway is one of the worst sins weve got it can be avoided Those with a concern about this problem will endeavour to be better informed about what is being done to traffic safety The Ontario of Transport has issued for the past 12 years a monthly fourpage EBENEZER newspaper and it Is to anyone interested in safer highway travel A parent with a genuine for his teenage son or daughter will no I his approval to that child getting a driver license at the age of 16 even though thut Is legally permissible unless ho is sure that his child has a maturity of judgment and regard for the safety of others commensurate with the responsibility ho assumes when he takes a high powered motor car on to the road When someone is destroyed as the result of sheer adolescent immaturity frequently created by the piling up of the immaturities of several persons the parent or guardian in the background is not exempted from blame Courses of instruction for automobile drivers should be encouraged and higher standards of proficiency will have to be required if our death toll is to be reduced But when all the steps involving knowledge and skill have been insisted upon it will still be most important to make sure that the morality of driving according to the conditions of the road the vehicle the traffic and the driver himself is kept in sight Your life is precious to you and to others Don shorten it by taking unnecessary gambles The life you save may be your own Full program Santa at Christmas concert By Mrs McLean A good crowd
