In the interest of safety of the cit
liens of Henderson and Vance County,

those who have been crippled for life

thanks to those who are respecting
the rights and lives of others, by driv-
ing and walking safely, and as plea
to every human being in our city,
county and state, to do his part in
making the streets and highways of
North Carolina safe for everybody:
and
Whereas the Henderson Junior
Chamber Of Commerce is preparing a
spectacular Safety Parade and Trade
With Safety Day, I hereby proclaim
Friday, July Both as SAFETY DAY
AND TRADE DAY, and ask that
every citizen, business firm, institution
and organization, give every possible
cooperation in making TRADE DAY

SAFETY CAMPAIGN
OCUT ACCIDENTS
Junior Chamber of Com
merce Sponsoring I'm
dertaking in City

The Junior Chamber of Commerce
plan for Safety Drive Campaign"
and the TRADE With Safety Day" has
taken definite form and plans were
completed yesterday for the event.
The object of a Safety Campaign,
is to prevent possible accidents thro
ugh the medium of various form OF
education, for those who have not al
ready been enlightened on the neces-
sity for "Safe thinking" and as re-
minder to those who already know,
but who have become careless and
forgotten, by reason of not having
been directly implicated in an accl-
dent or not connected with Safety
movement.
The SUBJECT of Safety in itself, is
cold, dry subject and cannot be
forced on the average persons, who
are the class that are responsible for
the majority of accidents. However,
this same class of people can be in
vited and encouraged to think of
Safety, by duplicating something of
general Public Interest with every
Safety movement; something that is
Of interest to young and old, and to
people in all walks of life, and all
classes.
In order to get "John Public" in
terested in anything that is ret now
affecting him personally, it is neces
sary to either FEED him. or ENTER
TAIN him, and it costs too much to
feed him, so it will have to be en-
tertainment, either in the form OF
visible action; radio motion pictures,
or entertainment written into printed
articles or posters. All of this comes
under the heading of so-called elk
Gus" methods, but after all, sub
iect as cold, dry and distasteful as
SAFETY, must be Grammatical,
"Glamorized' and "Publicized," in or
der to be absorbed by the people for
whom such programs are intended,
and people are far more receptive,
when in an open frame of mind, and
are concentrating on a particular ev-
ent and in large crowds.
The quickest and best results, can
naturally be gained, by reaching the
greatest number of people in the
shortest length of time, and this can
only be gained through Circus" me-
thods,. changing from time to time, in
order to keep the subject fresh in the
minds of everyone.
Every Safety Organization is a
"Public Relations Organization, Gre
ated for the welfare of everyone, and
to carry on research work as to caus-
es and possible remedies of accidents,
either Traffic or Industrial, and to
this end. the greatest asset is the
GOODWILL, of the Public, and all In
stitutions, whether Civic, City, Coun-
ty, State or National.

Tender, Aching,
: Swollen Feet

Your feet may be so swollen and in
famed that you think you can't go
another step. Your shoes may feel as
if they are cutting right into the
the flesh. You feel sick all over with
the pain and torture; you'd give any,
thing to get relief.
Two or three applications of Moone's
the pain and soreness disappears. A
few more app1ica tions at regular in
tervals and the swelling reduces.
And as for Soft Corns and CallOuseS
a few applications each night at bed
time and they Just seem to shrivel
right up and scale off. No matter how
discouraged you have been if you
have not tried Emerald Oil then you
have something to learn, and best of
all any offensive odor is gone for
good. Page Hocutt Drug Co., will be
glad to supply you.--Adv.

By Medical Examination
willing to cooperate.

willing to cooperate.
A man, for instance, with even
so serious a disability as two arti-
fetal legs, but whose mental atti-
tude is careful and considerate, and
who picks the kind of traffic high
ways which are suitable to him, is
safer driver than harum-scar-
UNI and reckless irresponsible who
has four perfectly sound members.
Diseased Heart Cause of Accidents
People with heart disease of the
type which may cause unconscious
ness or sudden syncope, have been
known to lose control of the car
and crash into safety zones. Those
with facilitating diseases, such as
tuberculosis, should not drive on
long journeys; they are soon ia
tigued and their alertneSs lost.
People subject to convulsive states
should be denied driving privileges
until satisfactory treatment has
been instituted. Many who are
subject to petit attacks are en-
tirely unaware of that fact.
Specific instances cited by DR..
Selling, in which proper physical
examination included a young man
10 years old, apparently in perfect
health and even unusual vigor,
showed muscular coordination so
poor from central nervous system
disease, that it was recommended
to the judge that his license be per-
manently revoked. Another SINH
lar case, however, responded to re-
Mobilization exercises so well that
there was no reason to curtail his
driving liberty.
A man 26 was arrested for using
and displaying another mans Ii
cense, and it was the judges inten-
ton to give him a light sentence
and let him go. But it occurred to
the Judge that it might be worth
while to have him examined, when
it was found that he had an extern
sive opacity Of the eyes, causing
marked impairment Of the vision.
The crux of the problem OF re-
ducing automobile accidents Is the
treatment of the chronic ofender.
Those who have been in accidents
more than once should have care
full mental tests. . The attitude and
makeup Of the accident-prone driv-
ers is one which modern psychiatry
can be interested in. The accident
prone driver should also have very
complete eye examinations.

 The Cubs have the wabbles and are rapidly Squandering their lead. They've lost eight of their last i4 games and their lead has been trimmed to four games. They hit the road today for ie days and many 6 Cub team of the past has gone to pieces playing abroad with c pennant in sight.
 The Giants have perked up. Mel Ott has made the infield. The re- turn of dandy Dick Bartell at short. stop has put life in the club. With. out him the Giants are as dead as last Sundays newspaper. New York's starting hurlers have com- pleted i3 out of their last ie games. Only two Cub pitchers have gone the route in the last 10 games.
 Even the Yanks have hit the skids. They did the unheard of by losing three in 6 row to the last place Athletics-the first three game series they've lost oil season. One fan, playing Q hunch, won S660 by betting Si0 the As would sweep the series.
 To bolster the Yanks wobbling pitching staff Ivy Paul Andrews has been landed via the waiver route from Cleveland. He's the only pitcher to shut out the Yanks this season. It's c mystery why the The dians don't use him more ire. quently.
 With yesterday an of day the only development was the signing of Jimmy Dykes to Q two year con- tract to manage the Chicago White Sox in 1888 and 1889. Dykes took over last place outfit and by con- stantiy installing the wili-to-win into a gang Of mediocre players ac- complished miracles with them. He should get @ prize for doing the most with the least material. More than half his team are castoffs.
