BE A GOOD DRIVER

Now is a good time for autoists
to resolve to drive ore carefully
than they possibly have in the past
and to be more courteous to those
whom they will meet on the great
highways. Cody will entertain
thousands and thousands of tourists
this season, and the biggest percent
of them will come thru driving
their own cars. There are many
things which make the impression
the tourist receives of the people
whom he meets on the road. If
they are careful drivers, considerable
of his safety as well as their own.
the tourist forms a better impress
sion of the section thru which he
is travelling.
Here are a few suggestions re-
garding your driving which will be
worthy of consideration. Look the
list over and resolve hal you will
do your part in keeping auto acct
dents to a minimum during 1924:
l.. 1 will. always be ready for an
emergency by keeping my eyes on
the road.
2. 1 will watch particularly for
curves, crossings and bridges.
3. l will always keep my car
under perfect control.
4. 1 will never stop or slow
down without signalling the ear be-
hind me.
5. l will never make a left-hand
turn without first signalling.
G. 1 will never cut off another
car unless 1 am sure there is I'M
pie space for both of us.
7. l will never start out from
the curb without making sure the
road is clear.
8. 1 will not try to save a min
ute or two by risking my life or
the lives of others.
8. l will obey rules of the road,
whether it's law or common sense.
10. 1 will always be courteous
"a gentleman wherever l am.

KENTUCKY COLLEGE
 FIGHT ILLIYERACY
Two Institutions Help Educate
 Men ol Back Hills

Frankfort, Ky. Nov. In the mountainous district of Kentucky are two schools, Berea College. the largest and most widely known mountain school of the South, and Withersroon College, another known among 200 mountain schools.
 The students at Berea work their way, training to teach, in the profes- slons of law, farming and business. Their expenses are negligible but their means are limited, President William ] Hutchins points out. The enrolment runs as high as 2,73S students, who come from the neiFhborinE mountains.
 The system is one of self-support The faculty has arranged that the stdents may work half day and study half day, While President Hutchins' sons education costs more than $l,o0o year at prominent university, the students here average $146 annual expenditure. Most of them do not have that much money 50 they receive faculty loans of s3o each, then work out the remainder of their expenses.
 The dedication Of. the new home economFs building brought out the largest body of mountain men and women ever assembled. It was con- sidered a demonstratiye response to the campaign against illiterscy, one of the features of which was the inauguration of moonlight schools" for iilltorate adults
 Governor Fields recently dedicated the latest addition to Witherspoon College, q gymnasium of rough hewn timber, to reach which, he and his party made much of the tourney on mules. The school is located in pocket between high mountains. The gymnasium was built entirely by the community, situated on Squabble Creek, a half milo from it's confluence with the Kentucky river.
 A non-sectarian institution, an or phanage and two branch schools, 1t is supported chiefly by the Lafayette Avenue Presbyterian church, Brook lyn. Although one of the largest schools in the mountains it Is little known within the state.
