Since they're detachable, road
shock is likely TO jar them out Ct
aim after only a few months of
driving.
Headlights aimed too high or too
far TO the left can blind oncoming
motorists. Headlights aimed too
low or to the right do not shine far
enough ahead TO pick out obstacles
in the road in time for a safe stop
especially in winter.
When lamps are aimed only
three inches too low. nearly half
the light is lost 500 feet ahead.
When they're aimed three inches
high, glare is up 76 per cent.
BE safe. Have your headlights
checked NOW.
Other night-diiving advice:
If your lights flicker, have the
wiring and battery tested.
If all the lights 60 out, it's prob
ably defective wiring or a blown
fuse. Always carry spare fuses. If
you don't know how to replace one,
any Shell service station attendant
can show you how
Check your tail lights, too. It's
easy to drive for miles without
knowing one is out.
Carry a roll Of reflector tape in
the car. If lights fail. apply some
tape to the bumpers so other cars
can spot you.

A statement by H. c. Secrest,
superintendent of county schools,
at the public meeting held last
week in the Knights of Colum-
bus hall, on the question of con-
solidation, clearly identified the
course of action that will be
taken by schools over which he
directs policies and procedures.
Supt. Secrest, when comment
ing on question directed to him
for answering said, in part,
believe it best for all to
get together and build one large
high school. However, the county
board is going ahead with plans
formulated during the past sew
eral years plan to go ahead
and try to solve their problems
by combining seven districts,
giving them an opportunity to
vote on consolidation in the next
general election"
With this now a known fact,
it becomes apparent that regard
less of the position the Caldwell
school board takes on consolida-
ton, the county schools are
definitely moving to effect some
major change from their present
status.
The seven districts considered
in the county consolidation are
