' The manager's advice was "Slow up for safety?you are going too last!" j In these days, many automobile I'drivers ought to slow up for safety. The list of daily disasters at the railroad crossing should be a warning to every driver to watch his step in that place of danger. You may have a natural expectancy of many years of life yet .to come. If ' ' so, you are fortunate and surely ought not to risk, by any rash act, the .spoiling of such pleasant prospects. ' There are drivers who do not come o attention when they approach racgks that are to be crossed.
