SCHOOL WAGON DRIVERS BLAMED FOR ACCIDENT.

L. N. Hines, state superintendent of public instruction, has been asked to co-operate with railway officials of Indiana in a campaign for more general observance of safety regulations by school conveyance drivers when crossing railroad and interurban tracks. A number of accidents have occurred recently. The Indiana law provides that the person driving a school wagon shall stop before crossing' tracks and have some responsible occupant of the conveyance get out, walk ahead to the tracks and see that no trains or interurban cars are approaching.
