It Might Be You Take a good 'look" at this picture --it's a verbal one, but it tells the story just the same. Even though you won't like it, still it is something you must face if Ontario's annual highway slaughter is to be stamped out. It is a gruesome picture--and one that happens every day on our streets and highways. This accident happened because the driver was careless. He died--his face a grotesque caricature with his skull split open like a cocoanut, his chest a gaping hole where he had beben stabbed by the jagged steering column. His wife was less fortunate-^she lived. But every time she looks into j a .mirror she wishes she had died, too. Modern plastic surgery can per-j form miracles, but it has limitations. When she looks at herself in the' mirror with the eye that isn't glass she still shudders, even though the accident happened three long years ago. Their five-year-old daughter lived, too. But she doesn't realize it. Her skull was fractured and her brain injured. It is much more difficult to rebuild a brain than a face. Don't say it can't happen tto you-- because it can and you know it" ~. day's headlines of dead, dying and injured people may be telling a story about you in to-morrow's papers. But you can help to protect yourself. How? DEMAND SANE AND CAREFUL DRIVING FROM EVERY MOTORIST. Report those you see driving dangerously. And more important-- drive sanely and carefully yourself. W.

YOUR NAME MONDAY'S IN PAPERS! Will your name appear in Monday's newspapers? If it does, will you be writhing with pain in the emergency ward of a hospital, will your mangled remains be resting in a funeral parlor--or will you be held by the Police on a charge of manslaughter? If you are a motorist and value life and property, help to stop this slaughter of innocent people. The death toll from car accidents in Ontario must go down! We are justly proud of the Police of this Province--but they cannot be everywhere. Most accidents occur when a policeman is not around. Traffic violators know better than to speed, cut in or crowd other cars with a policeman in sight.
