for child safety to parents and dri-
vers:

1) Make a conscious effort to
seo that children know and under-
stand safety rules and regulations,

example set by older persons, 50
obey these rules yourself and set a

streeta at stoplights or.,.where cros-
sing guards are on duty.

4) Encourage children to play
in school yards or playgrounds —
not on the street,

5) “Campaign for school. cros-
sing guards in your community.

* 6) Slow down when driving in
the vicinity of schools ‘or play-
grounds.

7 Keep careful watch for
children’ in the morning, at noon,
and when schools jet out. for ‘the

8) Don’t’ pass a stopped schoo)

Insulation Makes Differance

‘One of ‘the least expensive

With a fan ventilating system
