together, we can help our Youngsters
be good, independent and happy citi-
zens, free from the temptations and
discouargements that have already
wrought such havoc. offer to the

to start them thinking in the right
direction.

Interesting Sketch
braun OF Seal Sale
CONTINUED from Page /

| (NOuC1uuSU 4GOIU Z 6k0 ~
For twenty-eight years, the LITTLE
successors to the seals of three score
and ten years ago have been carry
ing a message of hope and help fol
sufferers from tuberculosis. Thu
seals will be placed on sale, as usual
throughout the State, by the Maryland
tuberculosis Association, on Thanks
giving Day and they will remain on
sale until the close of the Christmas
season.
"Like the flaming sign in the heav-
ems, many centuries ago, the double
barred cross of the tuberculosis seals
is symbol of courage and conquest,
to all who are engaged in any way in
the fight against tuberculosis" DR..
R. H. Riley, Director of the State De-
partment of Health said in reminding
Marylanders of the chance they have
to help through the purchase of the
Christmas seals.
"The proceeds from the sale of the
seals will be used" he continued, Ito
ward the support Of tuberculosis work
in this State, some of it going toward
the maintenance of the chest clinics
that are held in the counties under
the joint auspices of the State Tuber-
culosis Association and the State De-
partment of Health. Some will be
used for the upkeep of the Prevention
ium at Claiborne for children in need
of care of that sort and some for edu-
cational activities.
"Thirty years ago one death in
every eight in Maryland was due to
tuberculosis Last year one death out
of every sixteen was charged to that
disease. We have made great prog
ress but we have long way to go
before the fight will be ended. The
Christmas seals make it possible for
every one Of us to have share in
the battle. At penny apiece even
the children can help.

WEEKLY PAPER
TALKS ROADS
Shows Where There Is Enough
Money To Keep Everybody
Quiet On Question

"The Pathfinder" the official or
gan of the Pocomoke City Rotary
Club, in it's issue Of November 2, has
the following very pertinent article
concerning the present road discuss
ion:
A great deal of propaganda has
been spread in the upper part OF Wor'
cester County regarding the building
of the State Roads. Published state
ments that were indeed misleading
regarding the proposed road from Po'
comoke to Salisbury; that no funds
would be available for road building
in Worcester County, for a period Of
three years, should the Pocomoke-Sal'
isbury road become reality. Let's
look into this matter little further
Has the writer of these articles &C.
quainted himself with the real facts
in the case and would these propagan'
dists presume to add that neither
Somerset nor Wicomico Counties
would receive any monies for road
building should this Pocomoke-Sal-
isbury road be built. AS a matter
of fact, there lies about eight miles
of this proposed road in Somerset
County and about seven miles in Wi
four miles for Worcester County
comico County; which leaves only
These four miles, built at a cost OF
$40, 100000 per mile, would equal $780,
100000.
Can it be the intent of the Eastern
Shore Times to make us believe, that
out of all of the P. w. A. funds ano
the gasoline tax, that Worcester
County is only entitled to the sum OF
approximately $26,500.O0 per year il
way of funds for road building. It is
estimated that Worcester Couhty's
share of P. w. A. funds would bt
around $750,O00.00. 1t is also esti
mated that Worcester County pays il
gasoline tax alone sum equivelan
to all other taxation.
What will become of all of thi'
money should the Pocomoke-S Salisbury
road be built? The facts in the cas'
are that Worcester County shoul'
have ample money to build Pocomoke
Salisbury road; improved Snow Hill
to Berlin to Ocean, and bypass from
Dryden's Mill-Snow Hill road ant
then have plenty of money left t.

KEYSTONE CLUB
WARNS EVERYBODY
TO BE CAREFUL
Impossible To Decrease Acct
dents By Wedding Out The
Most Careless Drivers

Garrison P. Knox, Manager of thu
Keystone Automobile Club of Mary
land, gives Mr., Mrs. and Miss Aver
age Motorist something serious tx
think about.
He has been studying the report Of
the 100000 Massachusetts, Highway
Accident Survey with view to ap'
plying the lessons to local drivers, ano
he has found that eternal vigilance
is the only assurance any driver has
of escaping accident.
"It has been stated so often thai
all the accidents are caused by less
than 10 per cent of the drivers" said
the Club official, "that it is popularity
believed elimination of the dangerous
minority would make the highways
safe.
"With this thought in mind, the
Massachusetts, Investigators examined
the four-year records of TITO motor
lists, drawn form the files in blocks
of approximately 100, spaced evenly
throughout the alphabet to obtain 3
representative sample of the States
100000 drivers.
cit was found that of this num-
Der 6812 had gone through the -four
years without an accident. A tota
of S48 had one accident in that per.
iod, and the remainder, 1873, were re
peaters,' with two or more accidents
"The conclusion of the survey i:
that, on the basis of this test, any
definite campaign against 'repeaters
would have relatively little effect il
reducing the number of highway cas-
ualties. The point is emphasized thai
the great majority Of accidents hap
pened to the ordinary driver, rather
than any small class.
OBVIOUSLY, therefore, the big jol
in accident prevention is not the weed
ing out of 'repeaters', although thai
is important, but to convince every
man and woman who drives car thai
anyone is liable to accident unless the
utmost care is exercised in operation
of motor vehicles"
