A warning sign reading "Cave canem, beware of the dog" at Lake Maggiore reminds us to exercise caution in unfamiliar surroundings - wise counsel applicable anywhere in the world. During World War II, children were safer in the countryside according to evacuation posters - an important lesson about prioritizing safety during times of crisis.
