Council FOrsees
Some IS Million
Motorists On 4th

Keep your safety guard uE
and keep accidents down..
That is the advice of the Ma
tional Safety Council as Ameri
ca gets ready to celebrate the
Fourth of July.
People get a little too care.
free simply because it's a holi
day." the Council warned. They
forget to be cautious. They gel
holiday happy
The Council added that holi-
day periods are among the most
dangerous times of the year
25 to 80 per cent more danger
GUS on the highway, for ex-
ample, than normal periods.
And that's the time" said
the Council, when everyone
should be more safety-conscious
than ever. The fact that it's In
dependence Day doesn't mean
we can afford to be independent
on the highway. Cooperation
and courtesy are the keys to
traffic safety"
Some As million motorists are
expected on the highways dur
ing the three-day Fourth of July
weekend.
During the three-day Four of
July weekend last year more
than $50 persons died in acci-
dents. Traffic deaths led all 9TH
er holiday fatalities with $40.
The Council feels it is posi-
BILE to keep the highway acci-
dent toll down this year if driv-
ers use simple common sense
and courtesy.
Here's its code for the road
this Fourth of July:
If you drive, don't drink.
Look out for the other guy
and yourself.
Adjust your speed to condi-
tions.
Take it easy-don't tire your
self.
Be considerate.
Use your seat belts. And if
you don't have seat belts, get
them. They can save your life.
Remember" said the Coun-
Gil, there are millions of others
just as eager as you are for a
happy holiday. If you forget it
you may not have a second
chance to remember.

Korean Student
Rotary Speaker

Yu S. Chang, a Korean stu
dent attending Wesley College
at Dover, was the guest speaker
at the regular weekly meeting
of the Smyrna Rotary Club held
at the Wayside Inn. He told of
the educational, religious, and
industrial life in Korea, describ-
ing it as a country dominated by
Japan for many years and now
a country divided into north and
south. South Korea today has
free elections, maintains its own
army, assisted by United States
military forces, he said. Pupils
attend school six days week,
tuition paid by the students,
each scholar wearing a school
uniform which he described.
Methodism has built many
schools and colleges, he told the
Rotarians. The population is As
percent Buddhists, 35 percent
Catholic, and the rest of the Pro-
testant faith. There is progress
in industry through the advent
of modern machinery, according
to MIR. Chang. Nelson S. Ever
hart was host to the speaker
and chairman of the program.
Edward Everhart, also a guest
of his brother, directed group
singing, with George V. Kirk as

Georgia Gal Wins
True Security Contest

Pretty, redheaded Martha Rey-
nolds, IS, of Marietta, Georgia,

zoe, 900 high school seniors from all
over the country entered this
speech writing and delivery con-
test sponsored by the U. S. Junior

tual Benefit Life Insurance Com
pany of Newark New Jersey.

the Importance of self reliance and
initiative in the free enterprise
system. Martha was one of the 81
State finalists, 33 girls and Is
boys, including the District of Co.
lumbia who were brought to Wash
ington, d. c. for touring and at
tending the National Awards Ban
quet at the Statler Hilton Hotel on

better life for all. In my own life
time I've seen the wonder of color

broadcast to all the world from
outer. space, and probably in my
time l will see man at least reach

"In the height of this wonderful
age, however, l find that cannot
ignore the hazards of a moving
world. A Cold War as deadly as
any battle now exists. An ICBM
could destroy in a few moments the

practically at my doorstep, fight to
preserve and extend freedoms
too often take for granted. Today
is time when both young and old
must be continuously struggling
to preserve the dignity of the indi-
vidual."
The my True Security" contest
was open to all high school seniors
in public and parochial schools all
over the nation.

How Can Nice
Girl Meet Boys?
P)Newsfeatures


1t seems pitiful that some girls
just can't meet boys. One 18-year-
old girl laments this condition,
and says she just can't seem to get
dates because she has none of the
usual opportunities for introduce
tions close at hand. She has no
brothers and no friends living near
her home.
What do you do about it, she
asks, because summer is partic-
ulary lonely time.
Some of the ways to meet a man
include:
1. If you are summer school
bound, let's hope it is coed and
that you choose a boy-type course,
not pie making or sewing. There
are a lot of home &c students in
the bachelor girl bracket for that
reason.
2. If you are going to a vacation
resort, make sure it majors in
golf or tennis and other man-size
attractions. Get dad to take you to
fishing camp. (He'll be glad to
get away from it all.)
3. Choose a hobby that attracts
boys. and spend honest time at it.
Take your choice:
(a) Photography: Att d
classes, visit camera shops, go to
lectures and exhibits.
(b) Art school: Take a course
in painting, sculpturing, drawing.
visit the museums.
(c) Poetry and short story:
These attract young men to classes
and it'll be fun attending discuss
ion groups.
4. Attend shooting matches, car
races, other sports programs. In
vest in a small sail boat, learn how
to sail it, enter the races.
5. Learn the types of men who
are attracted to you. People who
resemble each other seem to have
some out-of-the-ordinary feature
in common-long nose, protruding
teeth.
6. When you meet a man casu-
ally, avoid being overly familiar
There is more to be gained in an
air of mystery than in telling all
on the first meeting. Give him a
reason to- see you again and to
yearn for a date.
T. If you haven't located a sum-
mer job, seek one that offers man
meeting opportunities.
8. Avoid time-wasting types who
mean nothing to your future. (a)
Engaged or married men (b) Those
who plan long sojourns away from
home or to other shores.
8. Attend church parties and
those held by local organizations.
There is a much better oppOrtuni-
ty for romance when the boy is a
local citizen who may be reminded
of you occasionally by meeting you
at social gatherings.
10. Make friends with girls your
own age who have older brothers.
This is an excellent chance to ad-
vance your boy-meets-girl stock,
and to keep in touch with the boys
by seeing more of your girl friends
at their homes.

We have been studying about
weather In science. We learned
many things about ice that we
didn't know.
What We Know Ab0ut Ice
We learned that ice Is water
frozen solid. Pure water freezes
quicker than sea water.
The temperature must be 80 de-
grees before water starts to freeze.
The Ice always starts to form at
the top. 1t gradually gets thicker
as the temperature gets lower.
Always test ice before you go
on 1T. To test ice remember:
One Inch-Keep Off: Two Inch
es-One May; Three Inches-Small
Groups; Four Inches-O.K.
Some ice is made in ice plants.
1t is made by putting water into
tanks and letting 1t freeze. Manu-
factured ice is used to keep foods
cold 1t is also used to keep foods
from spelling.
