A CIJACJ ms®
He had worked late — he was tired — thoughtlessly he walked to the
right along'the darkened highway Beyond the turn of the road were
the lights of home
Speeding through the early darkness a driver urged his car
along hugging the edge of the road A dim shape a sudden sicken-
ing jolt — and the terrorized driver his car careening sped on —
around the curve past the lighted cottage beside the road And in
the still of the pight a! man died x
These are the ingredients of accidents and death at night Often
the victim contributes to his own death by not walking to the left
facing traffic But far tdo many pay with their lives for the reckless
driving of the hit-and-run car coward To him self-preservation is
more urgent than the saving of a life
-
To his kind let this be a warning Of all highway and traffic vio-
lators the hit-and-run driver fares worst Sooner or later his crime
leads to prison and disgrace
The highways shall be dearedof these auto highwaymen
