serve as guides to pleasant and
profitable living.

Feature of the Week
Watch Your Step by John j.
Floherty. This is a book of SIM
pie rules for safety on the road, in
school and sports, and at home.
Everyone will agree that this is a
timely book for days when a cam
paign for safety is as urgently
needed as is our campaign for
world peace. The death toll from
accidents which occur when rules
of safety are disregarded is rising
steadily. In "Watch Your STEP
the rules are clearly presented. To
read and follow them is to dras-
tically reduce our accident toll.
Prolong life, reduce misery and
distress with watch Your Step"
