I ips on raffic CHARLES F. CARPFNTir.R Secretary of State Pedestrians have an important role in keeping down the highway accident rate. Just as a motorist inust heed the rules ot the road, So must the pedestrian. Pedestrians must obey all traffic signals. Pedestrians crossing a street or highway in compliance With the law at a crosswalk at an intersection -- whether marked or unmarked --- have the right-of-way over all vehicles. However, they yield their right-of-way to all moving vehicles if they cross the street between intersections, or in the^ middle of the block. iii n ri n i rr m rrii i i n i ii i i 11 n; 11 mun i m i ni: It Payi Home Illlllil|1lll|il!ll)!i!ll|l|ll!ll|llll!lll!lllllll!|ilil!l;|ll!l!lllfl1lllll!lllll!l!l1!tlllfi Pedestrians shall not cross the street in the direction of a pedestrian "wait" signal. There are those who believe they can safely cross the street if the light has just changed from "walk" to "wait." Apparently they will not concede that these devices are timed by experts on the subject. And motorists should always remember one thing. The moment they step out of an automobile they are pedestrians. They should not enter or alight from an auto on the street side.

You exttect more frorh and get iH trr Avoid Starting Fears In Childr'eh Parents are wonderful people. So eager are they to do right by their child they surround him with, gifts, . delight in . his glee, and silently promise to give their offspring everything possible during the , course ' of his growth, yet these sapne parents use the threat of the "bogeyriian" every time the child needs punishment, the .Educational committee of the Illinois State Medical society cautions in a health talk. Unfortunately the "bogeyman", doesn't stay in the abstract form we know him to be. He takes the shape of t-fie pbli'demari, the dentist, the physician ;fe*i'd ; the nurse. Parents should realize how wrong this is. Some day, Johnnie may be lost. How can he go to the policeman if he has been, taught to be frightened of him? How much better to have the child look on the man in the blue uniform as a friend that will safely return him to hiis mother and father? Now the trip to the dentist] The child is restless and pokes about. And what dpe$ mother, say? "You be gootj or; tfip dentist will put you in the' chair and pull out all of your teeth." This is a fine beginning for the youngster who needs dental attention, Once he gets in the chair he will be frightened and upset. Thus another emotional fear is established. And the parent is at fault! In the office of the physician, the child, who has been taught that if he isn't' good, the lady in white will spank him. As soon as ' the nurse appears, the crying starts. As mother and child eriter the physician's examining room, the frightened wailing increases because he's been told if he doesn't behave "that man" or woman, as the case m^y be, will "get" him. Fear, that .unpleasant threat of childhood, has been established. And, strangely enough, by no other person than the parent. The same parent will innocently .deny having done a thing to encourage such emotional instability in the child, when it develops to a more: obvious stage a few years later. Wise is the parent who will refrain from discussing some personal hurt by the dentist or physician in front of her children. To tell her husband at dinner that the doctor nearly killed me'today is one means of establishing another fear. Children are a strange little people that live in their own worlds. Their thoughts of fantasy are largely engendered by the comments of "that grownup world in which their parents live. Environmentally and socially youngsters have great trust. Through experience, they realize their protection comes from their parents. This physical and emotional protection includes adequate rtutrition, comfortable living quarters, love and attention. It is the protection that comes from prevention or cure of illness which is afforded by the physician, tfi'e protection that, steins from preventing or repairing tooth decay that comes from tlie dentist, and . the protection that cbmefc from the policeman., that provides confidence not only in the tiny tot, but in the parents. All these are essential to the normal emotional development of your child. Remember in children threats bring tears and tantrums! Children should be punished. Take away a toy or a privilege, but don't contribute to your own child's instability and fear by threatening him with the policeman, physician, dentist or. nurse.
