DRIVE SANELY
LIVE AND LET LIVE
By R. C. scHUSTER


What is a more fitting title for
discussion than the above sub
ject? Do you know Of more IN
selfish spirit to assume than living
up TO this axiom?
l thought he was going to stop;
l thought he was going to make a
turn; thought | could make it
before it was too late-or, if he had
only given me a warning; Il he had
slowed up or stopped at the inter
section; if he wasn't travelling 50
fast, it would not have happened.
These are expressions always heard
when one is involved in any accl-
dent.
But, do these thoughts run
through your mind ordinarily?
II not, take stock OF yourself and
act at once! In other words, be
prepared to meet any emergercy
that might arise in a situation Of
this kind. You cannot be too careful
nor drive too safely. Always be on
your guard and you won't have
anything TO regret.
It is my opinion that II we would
only practice the old sdase, live
and let live'-much would be ac-
complished in cutting down the
number Of accidents that take place.
Much can be done in that direction
to achieve this end with the CO.
operation Of every motorist.
Being in charge of the wheel is a
serious business and should be
treated as such. It isn't funny to
run down and injure or kill per-
son: it isn't any fun 10 watch the
pain and grief-stricken faces Of
their beloved families; nor is it
funny to Observation-Disclosures care
lessness-strike and damage some
body else's property, involving the
expenditure OF many dollars Does
this picture appear funny to you?
The aftermath Of an accident
especially a serious one-generally
leaves a bitter taste in your mouth
that is hard to eradicate. and the
effects Of it is hard to overcome.
But. this can be avoided if we arc
willing to make the necessary sacri-
fices, take the time, and have the
patience to do everything we cab
10 prevent these things from hap
pening 1t is said. an uurre- of pre-
vention is better than a pound Of
cure
Anyway, you-can do your part by
driving carefully at all times
thereby living up 10 the saying.

 CHRISTMAS FUND

The Salvation Army is supply ing needy families with Christmas baskets and any aid toward this end will be appreciated.

Dutifully, she went back to the radio room and sat down. The operator. was busy and so ignored her until once he turned to say, They're coming together by now, at the appointed place. I'll tell you when I learn anything, ma'am."
 Thank you kindly" she said. After that she just sat and thought.
 She tried to envision Sheridan Starr in action. By now he would be in a car. She wondered what car, with whom. His teammate Hope was, in Mexico. They had long functioned as Border Pa trol team. Would Sheridan be confused now without him? Sher- idan was fiercely loyal to his friend, she knew. She admired loyalty.
 She envisioned Sherry's very broad shoulders, his 1.-the grace He moved in an easy flow of musicle, quick, effortless. His face was at once refined and strong his lips full, his eyes deeply set his chin chiseled as if by some sculptor's tool.
 "He carried me across the river last night is if were a baby!' she was thinking, now. T wonder why he hasn't already - why he hasn't married"
 For another half hour she sal there quietly, but after that she could stand it no longer. She tried to interest herself in 8 magazine that was at hand; she tried look. ing out 8 window over the city lights; she tried to interest her. self in the radio equipment. But it was futile.

walk. rode four abreast, and Hope unanswered his horse to follow an inner row, the better to escape sus- uicious glanceS from Barro or his henchmen. Beside him now rode two Chinese and another Asiatic whose nationality he couldn't quite guess. None of them spoke either English or Spanish, he discovered. Apparent | ly they belived he was in his Mexican disguise, another of the aliens anxious to be sent across the intentional line. In the darkness he was simply another human form.
 Keep moving and make no un- necessary noise," Barro and his interpreter, Gonzales, urged the line of riders, riding up and down speaking in low voices. "No talk ing no breaking line. We can't afford to scatter. If strangers ap- pear, say nothing. I will handle it."
 Hope wasn't at all sure why he had slipped into the line of march himself. Still, he couldn't possibly have worked his way back to E. Paso in time to join his fellow officers in the mobilization which his red signal flares would surely cause. He would have been afoot, and he would have had to keep under cover lest he be caught or detained. This way, riding boldly with the smuggler and aliens themselves, he would certainly be on the scene if and when any &C., ton occurred. The thought gave him certain boyish exultation.
 "I've just got pistol" he told himself, glancing around. T won- der if I could conk one of these aliens on the head and take his rifle"
 He considered that a t length but finally gave up the idea for the time being. Maybe later, If the chance presented. Or, maybe, at New Channel Island, he could - glory! Maybe he could maneuvel then to ride in the darkness right beside Luis Barro himself, and render genuine service to the United States Border Patrol!
 Hot dawg!" breathed Hope thinking it out in detail.
 When the rdiao call for mobiliza. ton was sent out, Sheridan Starr paused only to drop few more clips of ammunition in his pockets, ano } to say last word to Betty Mary. Listen, Yank," he had slipped into calling her that pet name : we're about to have some fun } and have a hunch it may be the old rootin' tootin' two-gun shootin variety before it's done. You'll naturally be jittery to know what happens, so don't go to your hotel , Hang right here-you can doze 1T there on the old couch if you like and the radio operator will tel you everything that comes in Every bit of news. He'll get every telephone report. and put every thing on the air that eneds to go I've asked him to keep you posted right up to date"
 But Sherry"
 "1ts all right, don't thank me I just wanted it fixed so you'd know it promptly, when bat down Luis Barro's ears. Or gel mine batted down. Well, hell's g poppin-so long!"
 He was out the door, whistling before she could get in a word oi protest. He had been unusually sober of late, seemed actually happy now about the impending battle down the Rio Grande. His face had been more animated, his
