No matter if he is the most skill.
full operator, mere driving skill
won't protect motorist, stated
Highway Director Robert S. Beight
Ter.
Combined with luck" declared
Mr.. Beightler, driving skill may be
a lifesaver in one Or two, perhaps
several, narrow shaves, but sooner
or later an accident happens:
it's all over!
Safety in driving" he added
''rests in the drivers head more
than in just adroit handling of the
car. Many accidents undoubtedly
are due to the failure of large part
of the motorists to think. 1t takes
human good sense and intelligence
to operate motor vehicle so that
accidents of damaging nature do
not result
Think first and then drive. Don't
depend upon driving skill alone.
You may be the best driver on the
road but that can't save you if trou-
bic is always arising because you
don't use your head" concluded the
highway director

THE attention of historians
will doubtless always be TO-
cused on Custer's charge in
1876, with its aftermath of death
shrouded tragedy. The intervening
g years have not succeeded in
dimming that interest. And, as
many times as the subject has been
hashed and rehashed, with biased
writer's seeking to fix the blame
on this one or that, with discus
sions still hot, yet constantly new
facts continue to spring to life
out of the dead past, new side
lights, new angles, tanning interest
to bright flame.
For instance, Sergeant Kipe, in his
diary. states that the only living thing
found on Clusters battlefield was Can
tain keogh's horse, Commanche, rid
died by seven different bullets but still
breathing. Most historians have ac-
cepted that statement as an indis-
putable fact. There have been some
however, who tend to include Curly
the Grow scout under Custer, as a
worthy contender for Commanche,s
fame as the only living survivor. Curly
himself, during his lifetime, stoutly
asserted and reasserted his boasts to
that notoriety, which brought him into
the limelight, at the same time label
ing him a deserter.
Curly said: What am going to tell
Just short was always with

been older I would have stayed there
and got killed. I had to run away. ]
