Traffic Accidents
Destroying ManpOwer

Traffic accidents are destroying
this nations greatest natural re-
source-its manpower, Judson b.
Branch, president of Allstate In
surance Companies, declared re-
Gently. It's a terrible indictment
of our national standards when we
generate such little effort to pre-
serve human life on the highways,
he said.
People who deliberately violate
traffic laws can hardly be consci-
entious, says A. E. Spottke. vice
president of Allstate Insurance
Companies. Willful disregard OF
the law is a clear indication of dis.
respect for the rights of others.
Hs&
Cut-rate education will not cut
the traffic accident rate, warns e.
R. Klamm, accident prevention di-
rector of Allstate Insurance Com
panies. Before applying for a dri-
ver's license, every high school stu
dent should first be required to
pass a thorough course in driver
training and should be taught by
qualified instructors in this field.

Be on your guard for carbon
monoxide poisoning which takes
the lives of some 800 persons an
nually, warns the National Safety
Council. Although carbon monox-
ide is colorless, odorless and taste
less, you can assume its presence
whenever you smell exhaust fumes
$50
Avoid unnecessary sudden stops
the Allstate Safety Crusade urges
You may stop in time, but the fel-
low behind can never react as fast
as the person ahead of him and a
back-end collision can result.
$50
Keep a sharp lookout for elderly
pedestrians, particularly in bad
weather and after dark, advises the
Allstate Safety Crusade. Older
people move more slowly, usually
dress in darker clothing, judge
speed and distance less accurately
and are more readily confused in
traffic.
Ground fog can be just as dang
erous as the blanket variety, warns
the Allstate Safety Crusade. De-
spite otherwise clear visibility, low
roadhugging swirls of fog can OBJ
scure pavement markings, curves
and chuckholes.
In winter weather select the
route with the fewest hills, profess
ional drivers advise. That way
you'll reduce the odds of getting
stuck or being tied up in traffic
by others.
When travelling in cOngested traf.
fic, close fresh air vents so that
the heater will not pick up carbon
monoxide from the vehicles ahead
of you, the Allstate Safety Crusade
Milford chronicle., 1960-03-18

When you slow down to look for
a street or house number. keep TO
the right and don't block intersec-
tions. the Allstate Safety Crusade
cautions. When possible. wave
other drivers on around you so you
don't create a bottleneck.
Make sure the fire hydrant near
your home is clear of snow. the ALI
state Safety Crusade advises. Fire
men need every second they can
get.
In case of a fire. hide. behind a
door until you find safe exit. the
National Fire Protection Associa-
ton suggests. Even a thin wooden
door will temporarily stop smoke
and hot gases and may not burn
through for several minutes.
Be careful where and how you
store flammable cleaners, cautions
the Allstate Safety Crusade. Escap-
ing fumes can build up undetected
to the point of explosion. S
In trying to get out of smoke
filled building stay close to- the moor
and hold your breath for long inter-
walls. the Allstate Safety Crusade
advises. The air is usually better
near the floor.

Crobgross Ahead

Materials to kill dormant
crabgraSs, so it will not sprout,
should be put on in a three
week period prior to sprouting
time, which is late April. This
lets the ingredients work on
the dormant seed.
There are several materials
now on the market-Chlordane,
Di-sodium methyl arsenite and
Dacthal.a The first two are not
given as high a rating as might
be expected. The chlordane,
because it is not uniform in
its results; the Di-sodium
methyl arsenite. because it
usually burns the bluegrass
and fescues. Dacthal is new
this spring. Reports from Col
lege Park were more favorable
in that it did not injure the
bluegrass and fescues, but gave
a satisfactory kill of the crab
grass seed. 1t is not feasible
to apply these materials and
then try to reseed the lawn in
the spring. Use the crabgrass
killer in the spring and do the
reSeeding in the early fall.

Send a sample Of soil to the

or not lime is needed, and if it
is, how much per thousand

commended rather than the hy-
drafted lime since it does not
burn up the humus matter in

The other day someone
asked naively whether there is
an American way of arranging
flowers. I naturally said yes.
A permanent contemporary
American way has evolved over
the years and has even become
a cultural export.
Basic, strong roots of our
present-day arrangements had
their origin in the traditional
Western art concepts which our
ancestors brought with them.
A second and more recent
root originated in the Orient,
where the Japanese, especially,
produced a style based on Far
Eastern art concepts.
Both these roots are funda-
mental, but seem completely
opposite in technique as well
as in their concept of beauty
and an expression of it with
living, cut plant material. The
American love Of tradition, plus
inquisitive unsaturated minds
and a spirit Of adventure made
acceptance of both creative
currents quite natural.
Many Devotees of Both
Appealing. beautiful and yet
distinctly different from each
other, both styles have ardent
devoteeS. Alternately or con-
currently, they grace our
homes.
The occidental style is al
ways maSsed, colorful and form
conscious with an equilibrium
which rests symetrically within
itself.
The Oriental style is light
and sparse. Line is emphasized
1t is restrained and has in
herent motion and usually bal
ances assymetrically.
Our homes and our way Of
life show a contemporary
characteristic neither tradi.
tional nor Oriental. It is 8
blend which is simply Ameri.
can. A great love for form anc
color is entwined with great
sensitivity to beauty and har.
mony, and a sense for dynamic
motion and streamlined sim.
plicity. Though originally in.
fluenced by both established
styles Of the East and West
today's ever-changing combi.
nations create fascinating
ever-changing new ideas.

You Can Create
Beauty
With Flowers
The American Way of Arranging
BY MRS. HERBERT H. GREGER-

birthday, Martha Washington
would have stepped into her
"orangery," the green house, "
as her husband called it, and
combined her flowers with fine
porcelain in a manner which
was then the current fashion.
Today, her style would be
called a Federal period arrange
ment.
To celebrate George Wash
ington'S birthday nowadays,
we might take some forced
cherry or plum blossoms and
combine them with bright
flowers such as tulips, ranuncu-
luS, camelias or roses. The
container could be old Ameri-
cana. I used a reproduction of
an old cheeSeholder from the
bygone country store. Its simple
lines and fine craftsmanship
make it a wonderful container.
Light and Airy erection
The branches of plum bios
SONS rise light and airy. The
stem line with its clustered
blossoms is unhindered and
clean. The deep red roses form
a loose gathering and are bal
anced in all their beauty OF
blossom and leaf directly in
the center over the container
Through them, the container
becomes integrated into the
design.
Remember to cut the stems
of the plum branches twice,
crisscrossing your cuts into the
stem end. This will make il
easy for you to stick the
branches onto the nails of your
holder. Always secure your
holder to the container with
modelling clay. To balance the
arrangement is easy in such q
straightforward, upright design
If you feel patriotic, try 6
soft gray-blue base under thi:
arrangement. 1t will give you
if only subtly. a red, white ano
blue color scheme.
The combination Of beautiful,
lines and a strong center at.
traction within the design is Q
contemporary expression ol
dignity which marks today's
special occasion.
