 With several million men lock ed in mortal combat on French and Belgian soil, the relief needs of Belgian and French people are reaching staggering propor- tions. Already five million pitt ful refugees are clogging every road into central and southern France, trying to escape bombing and Strafing from airplanes. Our representatives in France report thousands dying by roadsides, of wounds, fright and hunger. Am erican Red Cross must rush re- lief of every kind, if these inno- cent people are to be saved.

Recent activities have brought
me into contact with several peo-
pie to whom Life Insurance Com
panies are paying money. Since
my usual contacts are with those
who are or who should be paying
money to some such saving insti-
tuition it is a new and pleasant ex-
perience to see "The dollars come
marching home"
Who are these people known to
the companies as "benefciaries ?"
They are your neighbors and mine.
Real flesh and blood people, as,
Mrs. c. - found her in her own
home in the country, in the home
her husband had taken her to as a
bride, the home in which her chill
dren had been reared and in which
her grandchildren now gather for
holiday festivities. One drives
through a vertual cathedral of
pines to reach this lovely little
home in grove. Mrs. c. is 10
years young; she works in her
garden; she is active in church
work and other community enter
prises, necessary income being pro-
vided through monthly checks from
three Insurance Companies, to be
paid as long as she lives, l mean,
as long as she needs income. "My
husband loved me so much" she
murmurs. Of course he did!

The School Bus Law Again

Last year Maryands school bus law which requires
motorists to stop when bus hats, went into effect.
llefe was criticism of the regulation then and there
kas been more since but on the whole motorists last
year observed the law, and enforcement officers had
little complaint
This year, however, it is beginning to look like
different story. Perhaps many motorists had forgotten
the law. Others feel that the restrictions traffic
are overcautious and work hardship on individual
drivers. At any rate numerous violations have been
reported and State and local police have warned that
the Offenders may become the object Of enforcement
campaign unless the law is strictly observed.
Chief criticism Of the is that it holds up
traffic needessly wherever and whenever school bus
stops along heavily travelled roads, That may be true,
but the fact remains that still have the law Our
school children familiar with it's provisions and rely
upon its observance by the motoring public to cross
law is observed they are taking chances. On the
other hand every violation is potentially fatal acct
dent involving one or more children.
Our present bus law and those of other states are
the result OF evergr0wng problem of bringing in
creasng numbers Of youngsters to school safely In the
days OF the horse and buggy and the small school house
in every community children who went to school at all
encountered few traffic hazards. But the automobile
and our expanding education system changed all that
Today one-eight Of this country's school children
travel in bSSeS Operation of these vehicles costs the
country some $660O0000 per year. The buses, about
$4,000 IN all go to 10000 schools and cover million
and quarter miles oneway every school day. It is
not surprising that system vast entails risk
to the children risk that every state and community
is striving to make as small as possible.
Marylands bus law was adopted with this object in
mind-though it may or may not be accomplishing its
end IN the most efficient way. should not be neces-
sary for the police to arrest of drivers for
violations in order to bring about enforcement.

Auxiliary Halloween Party
Tremendous Success

One of the most successful Hal
loween parties ever given by Boyce
Aten unit, American Legion AuXi-
liary, took place in the Veterans
hall, where guests had such a de-
lightful evening that everyone was
reluctant to end the party and to
go home.
The hall itself never looked pref
tier than it did in its festive Hal
loWeen decorations of cornStalkS,
lserpentine, pumpkins, bright ball
oons, and the traditional witches
and skeletons. Soft yellow lights
added to the effective setting as
did the colorful costumes. Gypsies,
Indians, including the valley Coco
paws, pirates, and other equally
colorful characters appeared that
evening lending atmosphere to the
scene
Whist and Bingo occupied the
first part of the evening, the whist
prizes going to Mrs. w. d. Parks
and Mrs. F.. II. Mitchell first and
second high scores for the women,
and to John Hawley and Charles E.
Farrell, holders of first and second.
After the card games fortune
telling and dancing provided plenty
of entertainment as guests learn
ed what the future holds for them
and enjoyed the old-fashioned
square dances called by Dan Grum-
bles, and the always-popular Paul
Jones.
Refreshments were equally popu-
lar, popcorn balls, apples, coffee
and doughnuts. Credit for the sue
cess of this party belongs to the
