Birthday Party For A. w. Shinn


Mrs. A. w. Shinn of McConnels-
vile was hostess to very enjoyable
party Friday, Feb. 6, the occasion
being the anniversary of her hus-
bands birthday. The affair was
secretly planned, and it was a COM
plete surprise to the man in ques-
ton.
About 10 a. M, the guests began
to arrive. They were Howard Shinn
and wife of East Fultonham; Mrs.
Mary L. Mautz and daughter Edith
Zinsmeister of GAINESVILLE; R. E.
Shinn, wife and son Donald OF
| Tabor; A. J. Monroe and wife of
the west side, and Phillip Manly,
aged Is, Malta. The latter's BIRTH
day was also on Feb. 6. Fully a
dozen of Mr.. Shinn's good neigh
bors called in the afternoon to ex-
tend congratulations. He also re-
ceived a large number of cards
from friends far and near. At
the noon hour was served sump-
tuous chicken dinner of which the
guests and home folks partook joy
fully. Geo. E. Shinn did not ar
rive from Athens in time for din
ner, but 'the feast did coldly serve
for his repast" The birthday cake
was a wonderful creation, and was
made by Mr.. Shinn's daughter,
Mrs. Evelyn Monroe. Indeed it was
thing of beauty and a joy while
it lasted.
Mr. Shinn's stepson and wife of
Alpena, Mich, called up at noon to
express congratulations, and latei
Louise Shinn, and his granddaugh-
ter, called from Washington, D. G.
His son Floyd also called in the ev-
ening, from Brentwood, Md. He
received a number of valuable pres
ents from friends and relatives.
Among the floral offerings were a
beautiful potted primrose from his
wife and Mrs. Sarah Gantz of the
home. Then there was gorgeous
cyclamen from his Sunday school
class, which was greatly appreciat-
ed, and last but not least, were 80
red carnations from Louise and Nor
ma of Washington.
Mr.. Shinn says that day spent
like last Friday is fitting excuse
for him to try to clutter the earth
with his presence for another dec
ade.-XX.

BEWARE 'TOO
 GOOD DRIVER"
He Needs Friendly Warn- ing, Says Commis-
 SiOner StOeCkel
COMPLEX TO BE AVOIDED

The "other fellow" does not cause all the accidents in spite Of the common expression "it Is the other fellow you have to look out for on the highways" says Commis- sioner of Motor Vehicles Robbins E. Stoeckel. It is quite true he says that an eye has to be kept open for the actions of other operators, and that a driver must be alive to all the unusual situations which may be created by other people.
 However" says the commis- sioner, "the man who attributes the cause of his troubles to the actions of others has probably arrived at the point where he thinks he is a little better in performance than other people. As soon as driver reaches that frame of mind. he should be. careful, for there is no more dangerous person on the highway today than the "too good driver" The man who does things because he can get away with them but does not consider the effect his actions will have on others is not only dangerous, but is pest and a nuisance. His character Is usually defective, in that he lacks consid- eration for others.
 "When a driver thinks that all his difficulties are caused by the "other fellow" 1t is time for him to receive friendly warning. When he has the complex that he must do unusually skillful driving be- cause all others are doing such bad driving, he had better consider whether, possibly. his own conduct has been responsible for some of the situations which offend him.
 Don't consider yourself too skill full q driver!" is a slogan which ought to be posted in plain sight of every person who makes asser- tions about the driving of others. It remains a simple fact that no mat ter how bad traffic is. how unusual the situation, every person who goes into 1t does so presumably of his own accord, and recognizes to some extent the dangers and diffi- cuIties which are sure to beset him. Once in traffic 1t is up to him to drive with regard for the problems of everyone else, as well as those which he himself experiences. If this were not duty, and if 1t were not lived up to by at least S5 per cent of the whole number of opera tors, traffic would be impossible. The maxim "Live and let live" Is more applicable to motor vehicle operation than 1t is to almost any other activity"

secretary of the concern. MT Goss stated that the Scovill company does not follow the practice of clos ing its entire plant for recesses of such length and will not do so at this time.
 When interviewed, MT Goss said that it is true that various depart .ments in the Scovill plant are ex- periencing lay-offs from time to time, the recesses varying in length. As a whole, though. the plant is kept in constant action and will continue to operate despite the depression.
 In various departments of the Scovill company. 1t is explained, the work catches up sufficient to allow a layoff of certain section. These sectional lay-offs. however, have nothing to do with the plant as a whole and many times the Scovill company is operating throughout its entire plant.
