IJ8TKN." Supreme Cwt Decision Says It Really Mt-aiih Something. L;The "Stop! I,ouk! Listen!" signs lit railroad grade crossings take on new significance* through a recent ! ruling of the Unitel State supreme! court. '1 he public, we are reminded by the New York Times, "hus been accuatomed to throw the blauie for all grade-crossing accidents on the railroads." Hut the supreme court, in a decision bunded down by Associate Justice Holmes, holds that motorists, not railroad companies, are reaponsible for their own safety when crossing railroad tracks. The case which was carried to our highest tribunal, was that of an Ohio automobile truck driver who approached a railroad crossing at five miles an hour, and was killed by a train going at the rate of sixty. His widow testified and the lower courts held that this driver hud taken all the precautions required of him; the supreme court holds otherwise. Said Mr. Justice Holmes, in his ruling: "When a man goes upon a railroad track; he knows that he goes to a place where he will be killed if a train comes upon him before he is clear of the track. He knows that he rpust stop for the train; not the train for him. "In such circumstances, it seems to us that if a driver can not be sure otherwise wherever a train is dangerously near, he must stop and get out of his vehicle, although obviously he will not often be required to do more than atop and look. It seems to us that if he relies upon not hearing the train, or upon any signal, and takes no further precaution, he does so at his own risk." "It would be hard to exaggerate the far-reaching effects of this dictum of our highest court," observes the Providence News. One editor recalls that two thousand persons are killed each year and six thousand injured, on the average, in grade-crossing accidents throughout the United States. "It is the proper duty of the railroad to mark the crossing so that even the stranger along the highway shall be aware of its presence. The railroad should also warn the motorist of the train's approach. But the responsibility of 'due care' rests upon the individual driver," maintains the Philadelphia Bulletin. If he can not be sure that it is safe to cross the railroad tracks points out one editor, he must satisfy himself on that point "even if to do so it is necessary for him to alight and look up and down the tracks."?-Literary Digest. The lowest temperature ever officially observed in continental United States occurred a few winters ago at Fort Keogh, near Miles City in northeastern Montana, when the thermometer dropped to sixty-five degrees below zero. The word Canada is derived from the Huron-Indian word kanata, meaning a collection of huts. FORECLOSURE SALTS State of South Carolina, County of Kershaw.
