That edge is retro- reflective material. "I didn't see him in time," is the most common explana- tion given by drivers hitting pedestrians, particularly at night when a driver's view is limited to the length of the headlight beam. Children in dark clothing are the most susceptible to such accidents but even white clothing is only safely visible at speeds of up to 50 m.p.h. "On the other hand," Dr. Newhouse said, 'Studies have found that retro-reflec- tive material is safely visible even at speeds of 70 and 80 m.p.h." Retro-reflective material is available in either iron-on or sew-on fabrics and tape, so youngsters can make up their own designs.

ALL LINES OF GENERAL INSURANCE certain they will be visible from front, back and sides," said Dr. Newhouse. " The other side of Hal- lowe'en safety is to see safe- ly. A poorly fitted mask, which can easily slip out of position, or one with small eye slits poses a potential danger because it can block a child's view of oncoming cars, objects in his path, a hole, a step, or the curb. Dr. Newhouse goes on to say he favours using make- up as a disguise rather than masks. '"'with make-up, the child has a normal field of vision and is less likely to have an accident because of not seeing something ahead or to the side. He cautioned that the make-up should be of the non-allergic type and should be applied carefully by an adult to avoid getting partic- les or applicators in a child's eye. Dr. Newhouse had some advice for home owners, too.

Be sure your steps are well lighted and that all toys and garden tools are put away," he said. Parents accompanying their children on Hallowe'en trek should be certain to add retro-reflective material to their own clothing, the optometrist suggested, so that drivers can see them, too. ¥ All parents should caution their children not to walk in the street (to use yards if there are no sidewalks), to look carefully before cross- ing a street, and to cross at a corner with a streetlight if at# all possible. In addition, give the child a battery-powered light to carry.
