SAFETY FOR PEDESTRIANS.
The difficulty and danger in congested areas in crossing the streets could be obviated considerably by having little elevated >or depressed crossing ways at short intervals. The elevated area "could be protected with hand rails or netting, and the underground might have electric bulbs. This would provent accidents,, and be a great improvement on the present system. • Also, I would suggest fpotpaths in the country districts (not necessarily elaborate ones) as a necessity. both for safety and comfort. Even if they are not metalled, it would a sense of security, and more pleasure for the pedestrian. COUNTRY RAMBLER.
