Uniform Traffic Signs
Asked

GENEVA P - European
traffic experts have worked out a
formula for giving motorists in
most of Europe traffic signals and
warnings in the same size and col
or, if not in the same language.
Working under the auspices of the
Economic Commission for Europe,
o working party on road traffic con-
ditiOns has drafted recOmmenda-
tiOns. Some of the puzZling and
hair-raising signs now in use will
be scrapped.
The experts also reached agree
ment on traffic light systems and a
routine of signals for traffic police
men which will mean the same
thing in any country. At present
the motions of traffic policemen are
interpreted variOusly and a go
sign in one country may mean the
opposite a hundred miles away.
The recommendations of the
working party are now being mail
ed to all governments of Europe fol
consideration. It is planned to in
clude the approved version Of thu
uniform system in the internatiOna
convention on road traffic now bein'
drafted by the commission.
The traffic experts agreed tina
warning signs. such as those a
crossroads, should be triangular il
shape with a red border and wit
dark symbols on a light background
PrOhibitOry or mandatory signs
used for one-Way streets and pre-
scribed routes, would be circular
with a red border and white letter
ing on a blue background. InfOrma
tive signs will be rectangular, wit
each country choosing its color.

only OF Saul as he was then called;
and nobody heard anything good.
He was a bitter. ruthless man. He
had TO use for Christians. Exter-
mination was his only answer to the
Christian challenge. The name Of
Saul brought terror.
On this day Of our story Saul had
been only three days a Christian.
He had had nothing to eat all that
time, and he was said to be blind.
You may be sure that Christians
stayed away from him. His Jer-
usalem cronies had no doubt given
him up as crazy; but no Christian
would go near him either. At this
point our Ananias had a vision:
The Lord told him to go to Saul and
lay his hands on him in help and
blessing. Naturally Ananias held
back. This was d dangerous man,
said he. But again the Lord in the
vision said, Go" and Ananias
went
Suppose Ananias had said "No'?
That might have changed the whole
course Of Christian history. How?
He could have thought OF many an
excuse. "Aren't there other men
who can baptize Saul as well as I
can? . This whole vision may be.
only mistake =" And so forth.
But not when it became clear to
him that this was Gods will,
Ananias went, though he still did
not like it.
How is it with you? When
you know what you ought TO do,
what is the first thing you think
Of? How to do it, Or how to get
cut of doing it?

ORDER OF PUBLICATION
Mary Maude Shevel, Plaintiff


Roy Clayton Shevel, Defendant,
No 4042 Equity. In the Circuit Court
for Garrett County, Maryland.
The object Of this suit is to procure
decree of divorce a vinculo matri-
monii by the plaintiff from the defen-
dant and the custody Of the minor
child Of the parties.
The bill recites that the plaintiff
was married to the defendant at
Frostburg, Allegany County, Mary
land, on or about June %, 1886, by a
duly ordained Minister Of Gospel; that
the plaintiff is a resident of Garrett
County, Maryland, and that she has
been a resident of the State Of Mary
land for more than one year cOntinu-
usly Immediately preceding the bring
ing Of this suit and that the defendant
is a nonresident Of said state and
when last heard of he was residing at
664 Van Buren, Street, Gary, Indiana;
that one child was born to the said
parties as a result Of said marriage,
namely: Paul Clayton Shevel, aged
three years, said child being in the
custody Of the plaintiff; that, although
the conduct Of the plaintiff toward the
defendant has always been that of the
kind chaste and affectionate wife, the
defendant without just cause or rea-
son, deserted the plaintiff at Balti-
more. Maryland, on or about the 22nd
day of October, 1915, and that said
abandonment has continued uninter-
ruptedly since the date thereof and it
was deliberate and final and the
separation Of the parties is beyond
any reasonable hope or expectation of
! reconciliation; and that the plaintiff
is not possessed of the means with
which to maintain the infant child Of
the parties, while the defendant is
regularly employed and earns suffi-
cient money to properly support said
child
The bill than prays for a divorce a
ivinculo matrimonii of the plaintiff
from the defendant, and the custody
Of the infant child Of the parties, for
an adequate sum of money for its
support and maintenance, for general
relief and for an order Of publication.
1t is thereupon, this 5th day of Au-
gust, l94S, ordered by the Circuit
Court for Garrett County, Maryland,

ing copy Of this order to be inserted

Roy Clayton Shevel, Of the object and
substance of the bill Of complaint and
warning him to be and appear in this
court in person or by solicitor, on or
before the 18th day Of September,

have, why d decree should not be
