For Aid Of !.
Local Seryicenlen.

Mrs. Montana Watts of Har-
din has announced that she is
initiating a Help Your Service
man" service, purpose of which
is to furnish Big Horn county
men in the armed services with
addresses of other SerVicemen
who may be, stationed nearby,
so that the men may have an
opportunity to contact each
other while in service.
Mrs. Watts said that in the
past several men from Big Horn
county have been stationed at
the same or nearby camps but
did not get to visit together
because none knew that the
others were in the vicinity.
Relatives and friends who
wish to aid men in the armed
forces in this respect are in
vited to send Servicenen'S adj
dresses to Mrs. Watts, and she
will see that those stationed
near each other are notified of
each others addresses.
Addresses submitted will not
be disclosed to persons other
than those in service, Mrs
Watts said, pointing out that
the program is not for the
benefit of some folks wanting
addresses of men in the armed
forces. s55* 4s.ss

of the local draft board, also
pointed out that the program
has no connection with Selec-

tives and friends Of service
men, she hopes to succeed in
making it possible for service
men from this county to get to-
gether, both in the States and

Rppling
Of the Rivers

A case in point to subStan-
tate rumorS' of needless
waste in government bureaus
and the armed services came
to our desk this week.
A news release from a branch
of the armed services reached
us by mail this week. The en-
velope contained not one, not
three-but five identical copies
of the same news story, neatly
clipped together.
We appreciate immensely the
public information offices OF
the services sending us news
about those from this area In
service, but one copy would be
sufficient. So please, fellows
save our tax money. IF we need
more than one copy, We'll make
them ourselves.
1t seems to this reporter that
more than the usual amount
of wild and careless driving,
especially among young people
of high school age, has reared
its ugly head in Hardin this
spring. Hardly a day passes
that one doesn't see at least
one exhibit of excessive speed
ing or careleSsneSS in the res
idential district of the city.
One possible reason for the
increase in irresponsible driv-
ing is the fact that every year,
we believe, more and more teen
ayers are able to purchase a
car - or retrieve one from the
junk yard and make it run.
The fact that SO much care
leSSneSS is evident is no reflec-
ton on the police force, nor
on school officials. We're sure
the police are doing their best
to control the situation - but
they can't he everywhere at
once. Many warnings by the
police force, and arrests of these
young people have been made
in recent weeks, but still care
lesSneSS persists.
The schools, we understand,
have made it a point to stress
careful driving practices In the
claSSroomS, with special pro
grams given by highway patrol
men and other law enforce
ment officers, and perhaps that
has helped, but we think 1t
still isn't enough.
1t is our belief that parents
of teen ayers should be made
directly responsible for their
youngsters who own or drive
automobiles. The chances of a
small child - or, for that mat
ter, an adult = of our COM
munity being killed or manned
on the streets of the city are
greatly increased by this squirt
in irresponsible driving. We be-
lieve parents can do more than
anyone else to counteract the
situation. s.5s.: q
incidentally, this newspaper
has been following a policy Of
not publishing names of school
students which appear on the
police court docket for traffic
violations. 49,, IL.
We are now convinced that
is the wrong approach to the
problem, and the policy will be
discontinued in the immediate
future.
