MOTOR SAFETY If you want to be on the safe side in relation to autos, follow these rules: (1) Be a driver, not a pedes- trian; (2) be a woman, not a man; (3) if you walk, don't be a jay- walker; use the crossing; (4) be an adult, not a child. Observe these rules closely and you'll not be kill- ed by automobiles. With regard to being a woman rather than a man: Listen to the report of the Chicago Safety Coun cil. In the 334 deaths in Cook County from January through July of this year traceable to automo- biles, only seven were women. It must be remembered, however, that most drivers are men. In these fatalities, 327 men were involved. If you're a woman your chances, speaking roughly, of not dying pre- maturely are over one hundred times as good as if you're a man. It's a sad blow to man's pride, if this report proves that woman is a safer (maybe not better) driver. Only seven chauffeurs were kill- ed in these motor engagements. Above all don't be a child. They topped the list with 63 deaths. Here's another reason that adults have for gratitude. Adults are sur- vivals of the fittest. Don't cross in the middle of the Hock. 157 of these jay-walkers ^uTe~"exeTcising meif privilege of doing the irregular thing. Some of us, however, will insist on cross- ing at the block bisection even if "bur career is ended in the attempt. A feature in this report of auto deaths should bring a blush of shame to the cheeks of every grown person.

WILLIAM NET- .,., STRAETER I Fifty-two years rector of St. Joseph Parish of Wilmette and Gross Point. When one reviews hastily all that has happened since 1872, when Father Netstraeter took charge of his little flock now grown to 400 families, he is amazed. It's doubtful if any pastor itt America neighbor's big yard. So far July has been red-hot, but we're hoping that the incandescence has at last ended. The robin, hearing the worm, cocks his head and listens in rapt attention. In an instant the attack is on, and soon mother earth has lost one fat worm. Here and there on.the top* branches of the oak is a little cluster of browned leaves. Only five months to Christmas! WILMETTE BRIER GATE A chicken dinner at Brier Gate! A very enjoyable ride from Wil- mette to Deerfield in a palatial ve- hicle! Those two experiences marked for us (not the writer of this little commentary, alas!) the initial trip of the North Shore Motor Coach route. Past fields of purple cabbages and golden grain (we're not farm- ers, and didn't go on this trip) the luxurious Coach rolled on its way to Glenview and thence northward to Brier Gate. Anybody can have this very pleasant ride for a modest fare, but the chicken dinner at Brier Gate Golf club is gone forever. Just our luck! "ITS COMING!" Not the circus parade. Some- thing better than that. Something that we've waited for and wanted a long time. The truck highway will soon be a real thing. If the County Commissioners help stand the expense. Forty-five feet wide and, we trust, an extra heavy pavement. What a benefit it will be to all concerned! . The trucks can keep up a fairly fast speed all the way from Evans- ton through Glencoe. Poor little Fords and rich Rolls Royces needn't get stalled any more be- hind elephantine trucks. NEW TRIER BANKS Resources over.almost six million dollars! Deposits over five million! These surprising totals show not merely the present importance of the banks Of Wilmette, Winnetka, 3P^U2j£3£oe^b^^ theyhave inspired in the citizens of New Trier Township.

It was the first auto ride for many of them. We who have become as accus- tomed to motor cars as to street cars will find it hard to recall our first experience of this kind.
