And yet we cannot allow des-
pair to overcome our morale.
We can hope and have faith in
better times to come. 1t is with
this thought that wish you all
a very happy new year. Who
knows, the tyke 1851 may be
smarter in the ways Of the world
than the old man 1850 who
marches into oblivion on Dec.
81. We all hope SO.
President Truman's letter to
music critic Hume in Washing
ton brought back an old, oft re-
peated thought to my mind.
Somehow it is hard to think of
a president as being a guy" like
the rest of us, with family argu-
ments and all. Yet he must go
through the same marital trials
as Joe Doe does.
What I've been wondering Is
what Mrs. Truman said to Harry
when the lid blew off on that
letter. I'll bet 1t was a mighty
strained dinner that night as
Harry knitted his lamb chop in
the kitchenette of Blair House.
I imagine that Mrs. T. had a
few we'll chosen words to say,
and I wouldn't be surprised If
even Margaret was little miffed
with Dads highly publicized
concern.
And yet, if your daughter had
gotten a bad review on a con-
cert, wouldn't you have felt much
the same as HIST did? Shucks.
He knows that a music critic
has a right to his opinion, but
sometimes parental pride over
comes reason. And Harry is not
prone to nlince words!
I'd still have hated to be a
dinner guest that night.

The 1850 Shiloh Christmas
Sunday sermon was preached
inspiringly by assistant pastor,
Rev. Oscar Phillips last Sunday
morning before a large congrega-
ton which included many serv-
icemen home on furlough. To the
vast happiness of the young men,
their parents, relatives and
friends, several Medford service
men from various branches of
the Armed Services arrived home
in time to enjoy the Christmas
celebration.

The state Patrol, which has Sc
lected vacation driving as its theme
for July, is working in cooperation
with the National Safety Council
through it's Operation Safety pro-
ject, a year-round program OF traf-
fic safety education.
1.-The National Safety Council"
Kirkman said, recently polled the
state police officials of all 4S staes
not only on differences existing be-
tween state speed limits, but also
on other factors in each state that
might be confusing or dangerous to
the unwary out-of-stater."
According to the poll, the Florida
Highway Patrol reports. the Off
Gals showed great concern over
driving conditions brought about by
unfamiliar topography. Flat, level
states reported that the biggest
danger to drivers unfamiliar with
such terrain was the feeling of over
confidence. This often lulls the drlv-
err into drowsiness, excessive speed
or both.
1.-THE officials of mountain states
such as Colorado" Kirkman said,
"have pointed out that drivers un-
familiar with mountain driving have
a tendency to hug the center stripe
too closely. This creates a hazardous
situation for both themselves and
drivers in the other lane"
Other hazards brought to light by
the National Safety Councils poll,
the Patrol said, include tourists who
do not pull off the roadway before
stopping to admire the scenery

In connection with the Florida

emphasis on Vacation Driving, par.
ticular stress is being laid on the
part played by state police through.

"A lot of grief can be lodged by
the vacationist this SINNER" Kirk
man said, eff he will consult the
state Patrol upon entering a state.
These men are quite anxious to
make your vacation within their
borders a safe, interesting visit. Not
only will they be glad to tell you
the local regulations and pitfalls
to be encountered, but they can be
mighty helpful in pointing out to
you the best routes and points Of
