Reprieves From Death

Five thousand Americans won
reprieves from death last year.
These lucky Americans would
have died violently, along with
10000 of their fellow citizens, if
accidental deaths had not dropped
5 per cent from the year before.
The death rate in 1854 was 55.8
per 100000 persons-a z per cent
decrease from the 1858 rate and
the lowest rate on record. This
decrease in accidental deaths oc-
Cured despite an increase in pop
ulation, high employment and
booming motor vehicle travel, ac-
cording to the 1855 edition of "Ac-
cident Facts" the National Safety
Councils statistical yearbook,
which is just off the press. The
greatest reductions were in indus
try, which achieved a per cent
reduction in fatal accidents, and
in motor vehicle deaths, which
dropped 6 per cent. Home deaths
were down 5 per cent and public
(non-motor vehicle) deaths show
ed 3 per cent reduction.

How spiritual understanding OF

Christian Science services this
Sunday. The Lesson-Sermon en-
titled Love" will include the fol-
lowing passage from the Biblical
account of the guidance the child
rem of Israel received in their
flight from Egypt: "And the Lord
went before them by day in a pill
lar of cloud, to lead them the
way; and by night in pillar of
fire, to give them light; to go by
day and night: He took not away
the pillar of the cloud by day,
not the pillar of fire by night,
from before the people" (Exodys
1921, ,22). Among the correlative
passages to be read from Science
and Health with Key to the Scrip
lures" by Mary Baker Eddy is
the following (454:18-21): Love
inspires, illumines, designates, and
leads the way. Right motives give
pinions to thought, and strength
and freedom to speech and ac-
tion." The Golden Text is from
/ John (4:8): "He that loveth moi
knoweth not God; for God is
love-"

while, then at the back of the
neck and I can just feel the
tension disappearing. Another
favorite relaxer Of mine is q
board which ! lie on. set at an
angle which reverses the pull
of gravity. If ! knew you

I'D be lying on 1t right now"
/ urged June not to stand

June confessed there were
still a few things she had to
oyercome-such as Shyness.
rs o m ething which has
helped me in that regard Is
a bit OF encouragement some
one gave me once as I was
standing In the wings, waiting
to go on stage. An old char

done to soothing music.
There's nothing strenuous
about them but they get re-
suits. This is a new approach
to exercise. More attention is
paid to circulation and breath

that you must work 10 g point
Of exhaustion in order to get
results.
"As for diet, sweets are not
a problem-it's salt that's my
undoing. I love it so I could
pour it on everything I eat,
but taken in large quantities
it causes water retention In
the system so I try to curb
my appetite for it.
1--WE had to work to create
an Illusion of glamor. Beauty
has always seemed a remote
thing to me-" June conflded.
My sister Gypsy Rose Leei
is such a naturally perfect
specimen from head to toe
while I've had to work hard
to make the most Of my good
points to create an Illusion Of
glamor.
"a beautiful woman can get
away with things other women
can't but too often this makes
her lazy. If she goes through
life trading on her beauty.
when that's gone there is
nothing left for her.
Life is never dull so long
as you are learning. I had
little formal education so I
need to- work all the time.
I've found that a lively mind
and a healthy curiosity win
carry you a long way even
though your face and figure
may not measure up to the
acknowledged standard Of
beauty" she said with con-
viction.
June has beautiful hair
which she admitted was one
of her best assets.

1--WE never been tempted to
cut it, though I tighten it
every so often. I have a vir-
tual beauty salon at home-a
hair dryer. an electric cap to
steam my hair and scalp when.

a massage table and a wonder
full little vibrator which has a
relaxing effect on the body.

organized in associations and put out direc-

Some regional guide books offer shopping
suggestions.
Z. See What You Read About
Finally there is the vacation purpose with
an intellectual flavor but offering plenty of
excitement. The idea is to visit places in
your favorite books; the homes and shrines
and regions in biographies; the battlefields
and monuments in historical stories; the
background areas of novels.
One of the most beguiling Journeys
ever made is also one Of the best-known
pilgrimages. II took me along a wilderness
trail starting with the Lincoln log cabin in
Kentucky, through the forests of southern
Indiana, where Lincoln's mother is buried,
to the famed tomb in Springfield, I'll. I've
been an avid collector of Lincolniana since.
You can not only make your tour drama
the what you have read, but you can start
a new reading interest. A friend Of mine
from near Chicago knew little about
Thomas Jefferson until his wife dragged
him to Monticello. Since then he has spent
three holidays roaming Virginia, has one Of
the best collections in the country of books
about jefferson.
Like Westerns? There are ghost towns
and authentic COW towns in the West, where
you can still almost smell the gunsmoke,
see the houses, the saloons and graves that
stud the literature of the Wild West. Enjoy
Mark Twain? Try Hannibal, Mo-, or poke
around in the Mother Lode country Of Cali
fornia, where he and Bret Harte cavorted.
You'll enjoy Steinbeck more when you've
seen the 'Cannery Row" country near
Monterey, California. There's lots more
literary country" too.
You can start planning your readers
holiday now, and when you come home
you'll have enough new notions to fill an
extra shelf in your bookcase and reading
for the longest and coldeSt winter.
LET'S make it plain once more that
Vacation with Point doesn't mean you
forego conventional vacation fun. Take
along your bathing suit, throw your golf
clubs and fishing tackle in the car. Along
every road to vacation target with pur-
pose, there are lakes and streams and
beaches, golf courses, sights to see and
fun to be had.
Remember that the purpose is the third
dimension of your holiday, adding to nor
NAL vacation diversions, zeSt and future
opportunity. 1t is no substitute for the
thrill of three pound bass on fly rod, or
par on the third hole, or the magic of the
Grand Canyon at sunset. The End

holiday by setting up a shopping tour. You
might even succeed in doing all your Christ
mas shopping on such junket.
A friend of mine concentrates on second
hand stores crammed with genuine junk.
In several vacations he has picked up for
trifiing sums - by shrewd eye for style
and value - some notable treasures. Refin-
ishing and restoring them is a basement
hobby for him. Result: some unique pos
sessions and fun besides.
Evening star., 1955-06-12
CARROLL sECHERs II

How to set up shopping tour? Watch
advertising. Most of the better establish
ments do some of it - general mail-order
notices, often little more than classified ads.
Write for descriptive literature. Some of
the larger and older establishments have
catalogues that are fascinating to read, real
gems of Americana.
Again your library can help. There are
a few books on regional shopping and
