CHILDREN AND THE ROAD
A novel idea in school trophies and one that is likely to command a good deal of public approval, was outlined to the gathering at- the opening of the new Springlands School on Saturday by the . deputyMayor'ot'Blenheim (Mr. C. T. Smith). During his speech ■he remarked that one of the greatest problems today was the loss of life, being caused through, motor accidents, largely among children. In the borough it was pleasing to see more attention being paid to the rules of the road, and Mr. Smith offered four prizes to the senior and junior boy and girl at Springlands School who best observed these rules during the next term. . Mr. Smith was thanked, on behalf 'of the school, by Mr. A. M. Gascoigne, chairman of the committee, and was given three cheers by the children.
