Thought Of viewing scene devoid
Of all signs is not to be expected
under the present program, but
the more serious offenders-bang-
up to the roads-have gone or are
doomed. The offending signs now
standing on leased land may adver-
tise their messages to the public as
late as the coming November l.
Then, if they are within so feet of
the center of a 30-foot right of
way. they must go. Several large
outdoor advertisers have agreed to
move back from the road when they
undertake spring work.
The highway commission passed
its ordinance on the theory that
signs within 20 feet of the right of
way boundaries constituted a traffic
hazard, but did not pursue the
policy within the corporate limits
of towns. The babel of signs thus
continues to mark the approach to
cities and towns, almost defining
the boundary line. The contrast of
city and country has prompted civic
organizations to act. and the COM
mission is assisting in working out
joint program with municipal
governments for uniform removal.
Roadside beauty is being further
enhanced by a policy of promot-
ing the planting of dogwood. which
the 1941 Legislature adopted as the
official State flower. Gov. Brough-
ton turned the earth for the first
dogwood in the program, which was
placed in Capitol Square.

The council points out that San

San Franciscans view with more
calmness now the placards on the

that danger exists. The signs read:

Klinkhammer of Stewart, Mimi,
president of the Minnesota Beet

His suggestion followed a report
from P. T. Robinson of the Amer

MINI, that his firm had increased
its contracts with beet growers 20
per cent this year and that other
plants probably would do the same.
Mr.. Klinkhammer suggested that

Visitors 10 Navajo
County Find Curious
Courtesy Customs
There Is Etiquette to
Watch to Avoid Being
Closed as III-Bred

GALLUP, N. Mex, March T.
Travellers contemplating a first visit
to the Navajo Indian Reservation,
which spreads over Western New
Mexico, will get much more from
the trip through working knowl-
edge of some of the common rules
of Navajo courtesy.
Probably the first rule to remem-
ber is that the Navajos do not shake
hands, but clasp them gently for
an interval depending upon the
length of time since the last meeting.
Omits Good-by.
1t should also be remembered that
1t is ill-mannered to ask q Navajo
his name, and after a pleasant chat
or visit, the traveller should feel no
concern If he receives no farewell
salute from the Indian. The Nava-
10 never says good-by.
The Navajos have visiting song
for social calls, and when some one
approaches the hogan singing this
song. it as impolite for the prospec-
tive host to go outside to see who
is coming.
When entering hogan, the visitor
should remember that it is impolite
to pass on the north side of the fire,
which burns in the middle of the
room. Always walk on the left side
when entering a Navajo's house.
Slow to Show Recognition.
At the many trading posts which
dot the vast expanse Of the Navajo
Reservation, the traveller may learn
some of the simple rules Of courtesy
observed by this proud and naughty
tribe.
When a Navajo enters q trading
post where several of his friends
may be gathered, he will at f1rst
show no signs Of recognition, but
after a prescribed length Of time, he
will clasp hands with all of them.
If he doesn't. it shows Ill manners
and his friends will be sighted.

Errors Responsible

18th in Is Storts

Despite a seven-run rally in

brief hint of a possible victory,

Twilight Leagues Blue division
fell to its 18th defeat in 13
starts last night by 14-10 count.
Victor over the Trailers were
the Business Men, who pounded
out their Ia runs in the first five
innings. A sixth-inning rally
which led to seven runs helped
out the Trailers, but they could
MT stick to the pace in the sew
enth.
ERRORS RESPONSIBLE
Included in the Business Mems
attack were three doubles, by
Girard, Byrnes and Weston. The
Trailers helped give the game
away by frequently kicking the
ball around. On five occasions,
errors put men on first, men who
later scored. The five runs
marked the difference between
victory and defeat for Covered
Wagon, as the winners collected
only two more hits than the
losers. Doubles by Colan Pipe
and Henry Duckert and a triple
by Bud Weier highlighted the
losers assault.
Calvin Pancuff held Covered
Wagon two hit hits until the
sixth frame, when he gave up
three, and then hurled perfect
ball in the final inning.
None of the players on either
team were able to collect two
hits.
