sKEEP YOUR HEAD"
SAFETY COUNCIL URGES

The Delaware Safety Council
urges all motorists to keep your
head and your temper if you want
to be safe driver. The driver
who is easily upset or who allows
himself to become distracted so
that he cannot give proper atten-
ton to driving is not safe behind
the wheels of a car If you have
a load on your mind, get rid of it
somehow before you get in, the
drivers seat. Driving nowadays,
demands constant alertness. You
cannot be a part-time safe driver.
Always drive we'll to the right
side of the road. On three or four
lane highways always drive in the
lane to the extreme right except
when actually overtaking and pass
ing other vehicles.
Be on the lookout for pedes-
trians walking on country roads
do not depend on them to get out
of the way as you approach. Do
not try to blow pedestrians out OF
the road with your horn-but, re-
member, it is both safe and cour-
teous to give the pedestrian un
aware of your approach, definite
warning.
The Delaware Safety Council
suggests that driving motor cal
would be much safer and pleas.
anter occupation if every driver
would follow these simple funda
mental rules:
1. Observe the reasonable speed
limits posted on the highway.
2. Keep to the right-the "out
ter lane" on any thoroughfare, ex
cept when passing other cars.
3. Pass the auto ahead only OF
its left-hand side and only afte
sounding your horn.
4. Drive only at safe speeds 81
that you can stop in plenty O
time should emergency arise.
The Delaware Safety Counci
would like every motorist to kee
this thought in mind: "The Lif
You Save May Be Your Own"

Milford Memorial
Hospital News

With the arrival of fall and va
cationists returning home, activi-
ties of a civic and community ma
ture will take on new life.
The Women's Auxiliary sof the
hospital has maintained a working
force of hostesses for the visiting
hours all during the summer and
have rendered this service very
efficiently. This branch of hospi-
tai organization is one that never
lacks for something to do. The
opportunities are unlimited and it
occurred to the writer that in view
of the fact that 1870 or better of
our patients come from towns and
areas, outside of Milford, a work
ing organization of women could
be formed in each town in this
area which would be of material
aid in fund raising campaign for
all projects in which the auxiliary
is interested.
A wonderful opportunity is in
sight in the near future, that oi
furnishing the new wing and the
new nurses home and class room
This is to be sure is a large project
which will take a lot of organizing
and planning, but if our women's
auxiliary will take on this propos.
al, I'm sure they can be sure oi
the fullest support of all the mer
and women in lower Delaware.
