Editor and Publisher Thursday, Se pt ent be 19*J9___ ITS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRYWith the schools of Syracuse in session, there is an extra hazard in driving, caused by the number of school children on the streets. Care now must be taken by car owners, by drivers, that these youngsters, some taking their venture “into the unknown realms of knowledge" for the first.time, are not struck and injured, fatally. J Drivers must now be cautious not to pass school busses while they are stopped. Some child may be just getting off the bus, or just running from the curb to the waiting machine. And your car, passing the staffed bus is the cause of an accident which you will never cease to regret, The bus drivers have instructions to report any one to the authorities who passes a school bus while it is not in motion. Any one so reported is subject to a heavy fine. Every driver should feel deeply obligated to his part in observing satfey rules. Let’s all make the streets safer for children. It has been brought to our attention that the town treasurer has not yet balanced his books for last July. What’s the hurry? ■ o— ——— —- ■ ■ • W. C. T. I .
