NEED FOR SCHOOLS
TO ADOPT SAFETY
COURSE STRESSED
Highway Body Approves
Action Urging Less
4 Accidents.
ASK UNIFORM CODE
Plan to Teach Students Vital
Points in Traffic Methods
Is Urged.

"Eniciency and safety must, be the
slogan of the motorist Of the fu-
ture."
This fact Is being sounded by
thousands of motorists throughout
the country. Recent resolutions ap-
proved by the conference of the
highway education board stress the
need for training In schools and
colleges which will make for bet
ter regulation and segregation of
highway trafic and more safety for
life and limb. A study of the So
Geological aspects Of highway trans
portation in the interest of the farm
population also was presented In
resolutions and given approval.
Working with a unified tram code
as its objective the highway edu-
cation board will call attention to
the need for study of traffic admin
istration. the careful registration of
vehicles. and the education of both
drivers and the general public.
To this end the student in engi-
neering schools will be taught the
design OF highway and rolling stock.
the engineering features of high
ways and streets. and the important
part which Is played by parking
spaces. safety zones. cross walks,
street intersections. etc. The best
types of signs. traf1c devices for the
guidance of pedestrians and drivers
and vehicle and traffic lights will be
studied looking to the standardiza-
tion of same.
The farm population. it is pointed
out. should be brought in closer
touch for social and economic pur-
poses with trade. professional serv-
ice. hospitals, churches. schools and
amusements.
On the subject of the marking of
country highways. to which the Ma
tional Motorists Association has al
ready given constructive attention.
the resolutions adopted say in part:
-Since more than thirty million
people live on country roads, other
than the main trunk line highways,
II Is obvious that any general pro-
gram of road building and road
marking should have this important
element continually in mind
II the farm element Is given the
proper incentive. it will more cheer
rully and more generally support a
road building program. This will
naks bond issues much easier to

for quite some time has regarded
the automobile and motor truck as

This appreciation of the cars

import duties. despite the general
need for revenue Similarly, gov

urged that the taxes on motor ve-

Even in matters of organizing of
automobile shows and fostering of
highway projects, official interest
has been taken. AS a result several
shows have Already been held in
Mexico City and a national high
way proposed to traverse the entire
country.
Imports of American motor ve-

the preceding year. Shipments may

Flashlight Holder.

Many motorists carry a f1ashlight
in their cars, and this little piece of
equipment is extremely valuable for
emergency use. 1t is an excellent
idea to attach two clamps of appro-
pirate size to the dash under the
hood to hold this flashlight. In this
way the operator always knows
where to look for the lamp when
he needs 1t and saves himself the
trouble of paving through the tool
box for 1t.

When the headlights are out of

have worked out of place on one

BILE lies in the bulb itself. due to the

CUCUMBERS OF
. SALEM OUTCLASS
THOSE OF IDAHO

Several weeks ago The Capital
Journal carried story about a
large cucumber grown by farm
or in SilYerton. Almost immedi-
ately specimens of lacally grown
1acumbers began to come to The
Journal office and a regular con-
test was the result. Twin Falls,
Idaho, copied the first article and
several large cucumbers were tax
en- to the local newspaper offices
and a large account of the speci-
mems as grown by one Professor
J. IT, Bainbridge, musical director
Of the Twin Falls high school, was
published.
The two cucumbers far surpass
this one described in the Oregon
paper" says the Idaho paper. His
cucumber is 13% inches in length,
IL inches in circumference and
weighs pounds and IL ounces.
He has another monster cucumber
which weighs over pounds and
Is IL " inches in circumference
and AZ inches long. Both of these
would break the record set out in
The Capital Journals first article
and the claim of the Silyerton,
Oregon, farmer" To give the Ida
ho county monstrous boost the
paper by saying, this paper
claims that this is the largest cu-
cumber in the world"
The final paragraph OF the item
reads as follows and shows with
what conceit the adjoining eastern
state city thinks Of its crops:
Twin Falls has the worlds rec
ord in crop production in many
other lines and we see no reason
why we should not beat the state
Of Oregon on growing cucumbers.
Do you know of a better story
than this one?"
The Capital Journal does not
wish to be the instrument OF caus
ing the people of the Idaho city to
lose faith in their state, but to re-
mind them that 1t does know of
better story than this one" will re-
print story carried Thursday,
August 81.
Two more giant cucumbers were
brought to The Capital Journal Of
flee yesterday afternoon to vie for
Aonors with those already re-
ceived. To S. Page, Of 1860 South
Commercial street, goes the honor
Of raising the largest specimen so
far entered in the contest. The
Daddy OF EN- ALI weighs
pounds ounces and is 14B inch
es long and 12% inches in circum-
ference. Its closest competitor
