All service schools are available to those who qualify, including schools in engineering, electronics, or other chosen fields. He has an opportunity to receive a free education that otherwise might cost him from ten to 15 thousand dollars.

Drunken Driving
Hazard Depicted

A graphic picture of the hazards
of drunken driving and other bad
habits of motorists were presented
to several hundred military men
and civilians Wednesday afternoon
in the Fort Miles Post Theatre by
Capt. John P. Ferguson, director
of traffic of the Delaware State
Police.
An actual test of the effects of
liquor was made on a Fort Miles
soldier who volunteered as a
guinea pig"
Sgt. Richard C. Eastman was
first given driving test on a CAD
get Stimulating automobile brakes,
to record his physical reactions
while, sober.
Then he was given six ounces of
hard liquor and allowed about one
hour to become absorbed in the
blood stream to show the effects of
alcohol on the brain. His slowed
down reactions were recorded on
a police intoximeter.
Assisting with the demonstration
was Francis ]. Jameson, assistant
manager of the Delaware Safety
Council. Maj. Harry T. Lipsky, Fort
Miles safety officer, rnonitored the
program.
Col. Sterling B. Howard, COM
manding officer of the post, opened
the meeting and welcomed the ci-
william visitors. He explained it was
being held primarily in the interests
of holiday travelling safety
This IS e. routine Army pro-
gram" he said, '''to help reduce
traffic accidents of Army personnel
during the Christmas holidays. But,
naturally we have much interest in

New Magic For
Future U. S. Homes

THIS is THE AGE of unreason.
But don't let it fool you. Things
aren't what they seem, at all.
Take the home, for instance.
Men are the planners for the
little cottage or big manse that
women spend their lives in, and
thereby is the snag.
Women want more closets, han
dier work space, nursery centers,
recreation space, laundry centers
in ordinary homes and apartments,
not just in show place establish
ments and in ads. But what do the
men give them, meanwhile? Picture
windows.
All, yes, but just wait until 1875,
one group urges.
AT. THAT TIME, they predict,
your bedroom will feature radiant
panels suspended above the bed to
keep you comfortable without blan-
kets. The bed will push into the
wall when you aren't sleeping in
it. There will be a TV screen in
the bedroom so that Nom may
check on Junior in tie nursery
while she reclines.
Therell be television telephone
in the kitchen so Nom can keep
tabs on Dad all day, if she likes.
An electronics device will enable
her to plan menus, specify the num-
ber of servings for each meal and
select the time when it will be
automatically prepared and served.
Bed sheets, table linens, dishes
and cooking untensils will be the
disposable kind, so there'll be no
storage problems. (That's the way
they solved that one.)
OH, YES, if Junior gets out of
hand, all you do is push a button.
Out comes an electronic retract-
able paddler to do the spanking
job for the lazy or bashful parent.
A new light source will make. its
appearance, too-electronic light.
It'll be panels no thicker than
window glass that will line ceiling
and three walls, one company pre-
diets. Two control knobs will help
you adjust to any level of bright
ness.
But what have we got coming
up now?
SOME PEOPLE are enjoying the
new electronic ranges and futuris-
tic-type kitchens that contain every
type of electric appliance that will
do almost everything except shop
for the food And more of this
atomic-age equipment viii be or

One home shown recently is built
with attention to conversation and
entertaining. The ceiling is high in
the middle and low around the
sides so that tete-a-tetes will be
cosier. The fireplace has a poly
ester resin bonded to bricks above
it. and around it the low-built cell

There is more concentration or

New MVD Filing
System Is Readied

A change in the handling of de-
tails by the Motor Vehicle De-
partment which will be as impor-
tant to the records of the depart
ment as that of the time when
titles were first established, is
rapidly becoming completed.
The entire filing system of the
department is being converted into
a card filing system with a series
of punch cards containing the data
previously maintained on numerous
papers placed in spacious files.
Motor Vehicle Commissioner
Charles G. Moore reports that the
work of changing these records
into punch card file system, which
has been in progress for about six
months, will be completed early in
January By that time, Mr.. Moore
stated, the process of converting
the titles, registration files and
operational license files in a~punch
card system, will have been COM
pleted in compliance with re-
cent law authorizing this work.
The improvement in the working
of the department through these
changes will be tremendous, accord
ing to Mr.. Moore, who pointed out
that at the present time it requires
about Is days for a title to be
issued, while under the new system
the title can be issued immediate
ly.
Effective January 2, he said, it
will be possible to make appli-
cation for an original title or the
transfer of title at any one of the
three branch offices in Wilmington,
Dover or Georgetown.
In commenting on the new sys-
tenn the Motor Vehicle Commits
sioner said, tThe present title and
registration files consist of 1.150,0O0
punch cards, while the present
license cards consist of 100000
punch cards.
at is estimated that about so
per cent of the work in processing
the files will be done by machines
and this will offer the department
better file control of documents
efficient operation and will require
about one-third of the floor space
used nv the nresent system.
'Tt is honed that the denartment
will he able to. start mailing re-
newaI registration notices with the
nvniration of the registrations for
the second quarter of 1857"

this area was not discussed, as
many had expected.
Captain Ferguson said after
wards, however, that a law is in
process of enactment by the Safe
Legislature to provide for safety
of all railroad crossings not yet
protected.
While Sergeant Eastman was
'mellowing" under the big dose
of liquor administered for mis-
test. Captain Ferguson gave a
lecture on safety measures. He
warned against bad habits in driv-
ing.
Develop the good habits of obey
ing all traffic signs" he said. while

American Legion
Newsletter

National Commander Dan Daniel
recently notified John M Longbo-
than, Delaware Department Com
mander that The American Legion
stands poised today on the highest
springboard it has ever achieved
for leap into new membership
dimensions during 1857.
1t was swept to this record PIN
nacle by the greatest advance mem-
bership landslide in all the 3S
years of its history. The peak of
this huge crest put The American
Legion 598,00G memberships ahead
of its early enrollments on this
date year ago. AS of December Is,
1,820,246 veterans had already paid
their 1857 dues in The American
Legion.
National Commander Daniel has
requested the Department of Della
ware to join in the Legion's ma
tional ASK YOUR NEIGHBOR"
campaign TO enroll 100000 or
more membership during the new
year.
Special material in color will be
sent from national headquarters at
Indianapolis to all departments and
posts in the country.
There are 1S,000,0O0 veterans to-
day who are eligible for American
Legion membership. Millions of
them have never been asked and
during this campaign Legionnaires
will be urged to make a house-to-
house canvass in their neighbor-
hood to seek out the eligible vet
eran and solicit his membership in
the Legion.
Department Vice Commander DR..
Park w. Huntington in charge of
membership announced that the
Department of Delaware has reach
ed as of this date the highest mem
bership in recent years and it is the
aim of the four District Command
ers to equal or surpass the Nation
al Quota of 4,063 before the end of
the year.
District Commander John Beau
sang of New Castle County has
challenged the other three District
Commanders in the Department
Donald Campbell of the City of
Wilmington, John Teal of Kent
County and Ralph Lyons of Sussex
County-that District No. 2 will be
the first to pass the National Quota
before the end of the year.
Newell Duncan, Department Ad-
jutant, stated that there is a total
of 4S,6G0 eligible veterans today
living in Delaware. Instead of a
National Quota of 4,063 the Depart
ment of Delaware should have q
membership of 10000 or more. With
SO Legion Posts scattered through
out the state, if the post officers
should put on a concerted local
effort, a Delaware membership OF
10000 could easily be attained.
If the veterans are made to real
ize that practically all the present
benefits. that they have and are
now enjoying, were enacted into
law through the efforts of the Am
erican Legion's strong Legislative
commission, then the veteran would
not hesitate to become a member
of The American Legion which has
been fighting and will continue tC
battle for every benefit that has
been earned and deserving through
their personal sacrifices in time oi
war.

Why We Soy

DEATH PLEDGE: When we
buy a house with just a down
payment, we might sign a mort
gage. The word is actually
derived from the Latin word
mort" death, and Old French
gage" for pledge. Originally
when an older son wanted to
borrow money, he would sign q
pledge to pay when he inherited
his estate. which was after the
death of his father.
