Highway Accidents
In Montana Decline

A marked decrease in highway acci-
dents throughout Montana has been
noted since motorists, bent on conserv-
ing their tires, are travelling at slower
speeds. Col. Charles L. Sheridan,

states.
Sheridan said that Montanans. be-
coming more conscious Of wartime Iimi-
tations on materials, are using auto
mobiles sparingly and are driving slow
er to conserve rubber Slower driving
speeds, he declared, has tended to inn
prove highway safety.

Blowing Rock
Youth Killed
In Accident

Fon Troy Mullins, %. son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Tivis Mullins of
Blowing Rock, was killed instant
ly Sunday at his home at Dwale
by an electrical shock received
when he came into contact with
the Appalachian power line.
Mullins had gone out to hang
a wire from the power line to an
electric fence near the home.
After some time, it was said, his
wife was attracted by the bark
ing of dog and went to investi-
gate. She found her husband, ap-
parently lifeless, lying on the
ground. Neighbors were called
and came hurriedly and admin
istered artificial respiration in an
attempt to save the injured man.
Radford Mullins stated that aftec
short time they had him breath
ing strongly and thought he
would recover, but by the time
doctor arrived he passed away.
According to report, Mullins
had fashioned a wire with a hook
on one end to hang to the powe
line with loop in the othe>
end, evidently to hold on to the
wire. When it was thrown he
evidently received the full force
of power and was killed. The
lights went off in that entire Sec
ton when the accident occurred.
A large throng of friends and
relatives from this and surround
ing counties was present at the
impressive funeral services Tues
day at the Brethren Church near
Skeetrcok. Services were conduct
ed by the Rev. Prichett of White
Pine Tenn, and burial was in
the family cemetery near his old
home at O'Clock.
Surviving are: his wife, Della
Childress Mullins, daughter of
Judge and Mrs. J. E. Childress
of Pikeville; his. father and moth
er; two brothers, Lonzo and Jack
lie Mullins, and one sister, Mrs.
George Artrip of Dwale.

Well Known
County Citizen
Dies

Dickinson county lost one of
its most colorful citizens and
Skeetrock people one of then
best loved neighbors when John
Floyd Colley succumbed early
last Thursday to losing battle
against complications due to adj
vanced age.
Burial was in the family grave
yard near Skeetrock Friday,
large crowd attending to pa,
their final respects. Religious ser
vices were in charge of Elder
Howard Colley, a nephew Of the
deceased, and Elder Alex Rakes,
of the Regular Baptist church.
Jack Dutton, venerable minister
of the Brethren Church, attended,
and by request paid brief ano
fitting tribute to his old neighbor.
Mr. Colley was the son Of Mr..
and Mrs. j. H.. Colley and was
born at Bart Lick June 20, 1865.
In early life he married Miss Per
Meta Ann Mullins of the same
neighborhood and later settled
near what is now Skeetrock,
where he resided to the end of
his days. Always an industrious
man, he engaged in farming and
in such other occasional activi-
ties as presented themselves in a
backwoods settlement to support
family. He was known as one
of the most hospitable men in
the world and visitors were al
ways welcome at his home
He was long in demand as a
singer at funerals and social
gatherings. He knew and sang
all of the old ballads handed
down for generations in voice
and manner that delighted thou
sands in his day. In his later
years severe and lingering at
tacks of asthma cut short his
musical songs, but neither age
nor misfortunes ever soured his
gentle spirit.
Surviving is the widow and the
following sons and daughters
Mrs. Iza Maine Hawkins and
Mrs. Maggie Artrip of DWale,
Mrs. Tina Vanover and Josh Col
ley of Skeetrock, and Walter Coz
ley of Splashdam. Two children
preceded him to the grave many
years ago. He is also survived by
one brother, Josh Colley, now in
his 77th year.
An incident of interest is the
fact that Noah Vanover, father of
c.. C. Vanover, died on Saturday
, and that John Colley, father of
Mrs. Vanover, died the following
Thursday.

Congressman Coffee Fovors Another
U. S. Naval Academy on Puget Sound

Americas military strength as
. permanent proposition after the
war is q topic for increasing at
tention. Already a growing public
sentiment is indicated in behalf Of
establishing four more govern
ment institutions to supplement
army and navy officers turned out
by the venerable academies at
West Point and Annapolis.
Current events make 1t obvious
that the United States must in
future peacetimes maintain a two
ocean fleet. an invincible air force
and a standing army Of probably
more than a million men.
Demand Too Heavy
The nations two splendid mill
tary academies, however efficient
they may be, would be unable to
cope with the demand for OFFICERS,
neither would expansion OF their
facilities provide any adequate or
practical solution TO great need
for thoroughly trained military
leaders.
To meet the problems of Amer
ica's military future, the nation
needs three army academies and
the same number of naval aca-
demies-that thought is definitely
gaining credence and support IN
eastern metropolitan centers and
particularly in the war-tense ma
tional capital.
