Answer;
Religion Is not silly. There are
many foolish people who are re-
ligious and many things that peo-
pie term religion that would have
a more appropriate name.
But real religion is perhaps
the greatest factor for goodness
and progress in the world.
All Of US know that there is
some kind of God, or the world
wouldn't be. We may not under
stand the details of our creation.
bat those of US who have faith
in a Creator know that this faith
can truly move mountains. :"
Things that seem impossible
without il, become quite simple
II we believe.
So give your child this oppor-
tunity of growing up in a church.
The church will teach her the
difference between right and
wrong in a more impressive way
than you can and will prove a
factor for happiness and peace
later on.

Local Briefs
Of The Week
High School Site
Comes Up Again

At the regular meeting of the
Board of County Commissioners on
Tuesday, president l. Keller Shank
appointed Commissioner Clarence
Eldridge to represent the Commits
sioners on a citizens committee that
William British, superintendent of
schools, advised the Commissioners
he is appointing to look into a pos
sible site for a new high school.
Some years ago, when Benjamin
Willis was superintendent, the Board
of Education purchased site off the
Dual Highway, which stirred up
quite controversy. The Board still
owns the site, but the Commissioners
are still opposed to it because of the
excessive cost of building a new
road and extending water and sewer
facilities.
1t will probably be next year be-
fore any new site is decided on and
purchased.

Bus Drivers Hear
Fine Talk On Safety
Professor Neyhart Of Penn
State College Addresses Over
200 Blue Ridge And Pc Men.

Over two hundred Blue Ridge and
Potomac Edison bus drivers, shop
men and supervisory personnel, this
week heard a traffic safety instruc-
ton talk by Professor Amos E. Ney-
hart, consultant on road training for
the American Automobile Associa-
ton and head of the Institute for
Public Safety at Penn State College.
Professor Neyhart told the trans
portation men that theirs is the sec
ond largest business in America -
the automotive business coming
clcsely behind agriculture. He said
that because of the rapid growth of
this profession, there are now over
AZ million vehicles on the nations
roads and So million drivers.
'"Ten million vehicles and drivers
have been added to the total each
year since before the war;" Profess
sor Neyhart stated, with the result
that congestion, delays and driving
tension have been increased"
These problems have come about
because the expansion of the nation S
highways and law enforcement has
not kept pace with the vehicular
growth, he said.
Most of you are professional driv-
ers," Professor Neyhart told the Pc
and Blue Ridge men. "This means
that you are obligated to meet pro-
fessional standards, as are the doc
tor, the lawyer, the accountant. It's
up to you to set an example of good,
safe driving"
The traffic safety expert then listed
as the most common 'troublemakers
on the road: excess speeding; ignor-
ing of signs, signals, and markings;
dangerous passing; misjudging We
hicle's location on the highway; and
lack of pedestrian consideration.
