Schultz. large proportion of those child deaths are directly traceable to faulty, insufficient, or even a total lack of child training in the art of recognizing and avoiding traffic hazâ€" ards. Summer Teachers‘ Courses "In an effort to overcome this condition, an accident prevention program was carried last summer to 30,000 teachers in 20 states by the Education Division of the Naâ€" tional Conservation Bureau, the Center for Safety Education at New York university, and over 70 colâ€" leges and universities. The results in safety education of the campaign of the summer just past far surpass those of previous years. "Although the whole field of safeâ€" ty education was covered in these teacher courses, particular emphasis was laid on traffic hazards. Positive, not negative, methods of teaching safety were stressed. The teacher was shown that the best approach to the child is by appealing to the child‘s innate desire to excell, in contrast to the old method of terriâ€" fying him with a grim succession of ‘Don‘ts‘. The child is taught that intelligent alertness, plus courtesy and consideration for the rights of others, are the most sensible of huâ€" man attitudes. He is shown how to avoid accidents in much the same way that a football player is shown how to evade the opponents‘ interâ€" ference." Rules for Child and Driver For the child: 1. Always cross the street under the supervision of the officer or teacher if one is present; always obâ€" serve the traffic lights; whether or not there is a traffic signal, always look both ways before crossing the street. The driver may not be on his job; you should be on yours. 2. Do not run into the street in pursuit of a ball or playmate withâ€" out first making sure you will be able to return to the curb safely. 3. Do not annoy drivers by runâ€" ning alongside their cars or darting in and out of the street without warning. How would you like to have motorists make a game of tryâ€" ing to drive as close to you as posâ€" sible without knocking you down? For the motorist: 1. Beginning today, observe all SCHOOL signs. During the sumâ€" mer you may have acquired the habit of ignoring these signs; break it now. 2. Children especially young chilâ€" dren, are liable to do the unexâ€" pected; they act first and think afâ€" terward. When you have to drive past a child playing near the street, slow down. He may dart out in front of your car. Mario Pagliai, student at the Art Institute this summer, is designing the posters advertising the Columbus 3. Be especially observant of parked cars.
