II Consider the Railroads II —for Safety The safety of the service that is proi\ vided by the railroads is usually taken . i for granted. \ I There could be no greater tribute ito a safety record, but the things that are responsible for such a record can* not be taken so lightly. On the physical side, railroads can give safe service because they have their own roadways, the track is solidly built, flanged wheels hold the trains to their course, and signals guard the way. On the human side, too, there are reasons for railway safety. Trains are operated according to rules and orders vrfiich give safety first place, and .-t\ every employe who has any part in their operation is sober, physically fit and thoroughly trained. Safety is one reason why it pays to /~* ship and travel by rail. Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited. FOR SAFE L A. DOWNS transport USE THE RAILROADS
