Cartoonist Hatlo Sets a Safe Crossing Warning

Not To Be Forgot HERE are few cartoonists who are the equal of Jimmy Hatlo in originality of conception and in consistently good humored portrayal. In his cartoon appearing on the right of this column Mr Hatlo is not angling for a chuckle. He seeks to produce an effect and with originality he has achieved it. The cartoon strikes the imagination in a way that columns of type and other cartoons could not. Only a genius could conceive of this simple effective way of making the reader realize the danger at a grade crossing. That cartoon is not easily forgot and being remembered it may save more than one life.
