Dear Sir:
From early grammar school
days until last August, I consid-
cred the West to be nothing
more than a geographical area
containing miles and miles of
ranch land and mountains, inter-
mixed with small bodies of wa
ter. Although magazine articles
and advertisements depict the
West as something breathtaking
and panoramic, l was ncvcrthe-
less satisfied in my own mind
that the East held the key to
everything - especially in in.

In August there came an op.
portunity to travel throughout
the Western and Far Western
states. With an indifferent atti.

The materials for their memo

there in your daily living - fam
lily fun, holiday traditions, ser

That is one more thing
would like to mention in connec.
ton with family traditions and
thankfulncss - prayer. Offering
prayer not only gives US chance
to show our thankfulncss to God,
it strengthens the family's to-
gcthcrncss.
The Israclitcs are probably the
first to have offered prayer be-
fore eating, out of gratitude for
having food to eat. And then the
Egyptians copied the idea from
them. The Egyptians rarely sat
down to cat without saying grace,
and like the Israclitcs, they of.

taking of it themselves.

world today who have expert.

arc truly grateful for food to eat.
In many busy families, it's
impossible for all the members
to be together for every meal -
or even for one meal a day. But
there's at least one meal a week
when the entire household can
cat together and offer thanks
for their blessings. The same
blessing said over and over by
the same person can become
just Formally and tends to
weaken children's respect for
religion. Vary the saying of
grace to make it's significance
and meaning genuine.
In some homes. each family
member takes his turn in giving
thanks in his own words. In 9th.

cident studies for 1853 show that
SIS per cent of all fatal mishaps
occurred at night. Fifty.three per
cent of the rural traffic deaths
occurred between sunset and
sunrise.
For greater safety in night
driving, here are a few rules to
follow: Slow down, and keep a
constant lookout for pedestrians
and for vehicles without lights,
or with dim lights. Never wear
tinted glasses at night. Use your
headlights properly, and dim
when approaching another car,
even though the other driver
fails to dim his lights. Make sure
that all your lights are turned on
before pulling onto the highway.
If a flat tire, or other trouble
makes it necessary to stop, pull
off as far as possible to the side
of the highway. Carry flares or
blinkcr warning lights that can
be set out in such emergencies.
Now about pedestrians. If you
must walk on the highway at
night, walk on the shoulder fac.
ing traffic. Remember too, that
pedestrians in dark clothing are
difficult for motorists to see.
Don't trust your judgement too
far in estimating the speed of an
approaching car by its head.
lights at night. Whenever pos.
sible. cross the highway at inter.
sections.
BY following these rules, our
night traffic accidents can be
reduced.
