 You look out the window and watch your teenager hurry off to school with his books under his arm. What will he choose to be when he grows up? On the surface he seems 10 be thinking only about basketball and girls, but under meath he's probably giving serious thought to his future.
 In our country a boy doesn't have to follow in his fathers footsteps unless he wants to. There are thousands of different kinds of work to choose from. and he has a right to choose the kind that will give him the most satisfaction. But it takes more than just choosing. It takes ambition, education and eX- perience. And it takes good health to be able to get that education and experience and to follow a career successful. This is one part of his preparation for the future where you can really help.

Travel Safety

yet if passengers were seated facking back
ward and given parachutes on aircraft,
quite often number Of them could save
their lives
Likewise, if safety belts were furnished
in automobiles and possibly other safety
devices, it is entirely possible that more
than half the people being killed on the i
highway today could be saved.
Whether the air lines, the Government
regulators and the automobile companies
take the proper steps to provide more
safety for passengers depends upon the
attitude of the public. If that attitude be-
comes one Of demanding such safety de-
vices, then manufacturers will supply
them. However. we see little hope at pres
ent that such safety devices will be put
into use since the public is not vet sut1ici-
emily aroused to the carnage being caused
on the highways, and some times in the
air, by inadequate safety devices That is
a reflection ON the intelligence Of the
average American traveller
The Farmville herald and farmer-leader. (Farmville, Va.) 1934-1957, 1954-01-05

An exhibit Of the American Medical
"a Association in st. Louis recently stress
ed the theme that thousands Of lives could
be saved in automobile accidents if the
driver and passengers wore safety belts
The exhibit even suggested that 453 people.
out Of a total of 633 persons killed in one
wear in Indiana, would probably have sur
vived the accidents if they had worn safety
belts
1t has long been known that most
people are not killed by the destruction
Of the automobiles, but die from injuries
caused when they are thrown against the
side top or windshield or windows. Stunt
drivers long ago learned that safety belts
and crash helmets enabled them to endure
fantastic crashes without serious injury.
This question is something like that
concerning backwards seats and parachutes
in aircraft. The public does not want to
bother with safety belts in automobiles,
iust a TIE public does not want to worry
about parachutes on a passenger aircraft,
