FEBRUARY 17, 1922 Sa ne ‘ THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE ’ 5 PAGE THREE FAST BOXERS TO APPEAR IN RING HERE; : ~ RAILROAD BODY URGES DRIVERS TO BE CAREFUL Issues Appeal to Drivers of School Busses Setting Out. Dangers The state ra{lroad commission; as a part of its “Safety First’? campaign has addressed an appeal to drivers of school busses urging care in crossing railroad tracks: In a letter the com- milseion calls attention to the follow- ing: “The majority of accidents at rail- road grade crossings are ‘the fault of the driver of the vehicle. “All crossngs are dangerous. Sta- tistics show that more accidents oc- cur at crossings where trains may be seen for half a mile or more than on blind crossings. “It is impossible to judge the speed of an approaching train. Passenger trains run from 45 to 60 mles per hour in the open country; freight trains av- erage from 25 to 45 miles per hour. A train running 60 miles per hour moves 88 feet per second, and at 50 miles per hour, moves 73 feet per second. An automobile or other ve- hicle can be easily stopped, whereas the speed of a train can scarcely ‘be slackened after it is apparent that the driver intends crossing ahead of a train. ‘ “Drivers of busses should exercise great care in crossing railroad tracks not only as a matter of safety, ‘but also as an object lesson to the child- ren. If the children are impressed with the necessity of using care in crossing railroad tracks, they will be very likely to use the same degree of care when driving a car or team them- selves. On the-other hand, if drivers of school busses take chances on railroad crossings, (and they are taking chances unless they positively! know there is no train within a half| mile) the children will later do the same thing, and it is only a question of time when a fatal accdent will oc- cur. Don’t Take Chance ‘Do not depend on a railroad time table. to determine whether or not trains have passed. Passenger trains are frequently late, especiajly in the winter time and during bad weather. Freight trains may be expected at any hour, since comparatively few of them are operated on a regular schedule. “Don’t take a chance. Before crossing a railroad track, the driver of a bus should come to a full stop} and have someone go ahead to make; sure that no train is approaching. We| ask your cooperation in our, efforts} to reduce the‘ train crossing acci- dents.” 3 GREAT-GRAND CHILDREN COME _IN 48 HOURS Thereby, Mrs. Bertha Perkins, 97 Years Old, Experienced | Real Thrill Sabetha, Kan., Feb. 17.—Mrs. Bertha Perkins, who will be 98 years old next! April, found,a real thrill recently when three additional great-grand childrén arrived in three Sabetha homes, within a period of 48 hours. They brought the number of her des- cendants up to 274. ‘Mrs. Perkins’ five generations of descendants are divided as follows: Ten children, eight of whom are living. s: Seventy-five grand children. One hundred fifty-five great grand children. Twenty-five great-great grandchild- ren. Nine great-great-great grandchild- ren. Mrs, Perkins was born in Virginia, | April 25, 1824; married David Perkins | in Ohio, March 16, 1843. Her maiden | name was Bertha Marcum. In 1848) they emigrated to Iowa, and in 1867 | took a homestead in this—Nemaha! county—where she has ilved ever) since... Mr. Perkins died in 1893. | “Good and old fashioned cooking,” | is the recipe Mrs. Perkins gives for; her longevity. ‘It is no wonder peo- ple do not live to old age like they| used to; considering the rich foods, they put in their stomachs nowa-' day. People do not eat enough| coarse food. Corn bread once or) twice a day would improve their health. Here, are a few of her ideas as she expressed them. | “I believe women should aid their husbands in voting right, but do not believe women should go into politics,; or vote. | “Cooking courses in schools and colleges run too much to fudge and fancy dishes. I believe still, that the) best place for a girl to learn house-| keeping and cooking is from mother | —but I am in doubt whethér some of | these modern day mothers know much | about such things. | “Work is the best tonic. Why I do something every day. In the summer! time I take care of my vegetable garden. Last summer I raised so, many vegetables I had them to pass; them around among the neighbors.” DELEGATES TO HARBORS MEET ff The following North Dakota dele- | gates to the National River and Har-| tors ‘Congress at Washington have | been appointed by Governor Nestos: | .
