Bicycles, if ridden thoughtlessly, can get children into the same kind of trouble that adults often experi- ence* with a car. Statistics show that at least 25,000 injuries and 800 deaths on the highway occurred to cyclists during the past year, mostly resulting from actions which were traffic regulation violations. Defective bicycles accounted for one out of every three of these ac- cidents. With the opening of school, when hundreds of additional youngsters will be riding bicycles, parents should make sure that children know and obey the following regu- lations and common sense practices: When turning left or right, use the same arm signals that are fol- lowed by motorists. Traffic lights, be obeyed. At busy intersections, dismount and walk across. In many places riding on side- walks is taboo. Where this is the law obey it! For night riding, keep your headlamp and tail reflector in good working order. For all riding, equip your bicycle with horn or bell. Give passing cars plenty of room, hug right side of road. Never ride in center or two-abreast. Take the necessary time and pains to learn to ride well. Get an experienced cyclist to help. Practice in a safe area, away from traffic. Make sure handlebars and saddle are properly adjusted. Set saddle so that when pedal is at lowest point rider's leg is comfortably straight. Stunts like riding no -hands, standing on seat, coasting with feet on handlebars belong in the circus. Leave them for professionals. Two-on-a-bike is dangerous since it interferes with rider's vision, steering and balance, Use special care on rainy days to prevent skidding. Take wet street- car tracks at right angles (90°) or as nearly so as possible. Watch out for the standing car FASHION FUN—Just for fun is this conversation piece, an Eng- skirt.
