School Kids Endangered
BY High-Speed Traffic

For our most priceless pos
sessions are our children, whose
lives may we'll depend at times
on our ability to think.
The law requires us to carry
various types of insurance on
our cars and vehicles. But this
insurance can hardly replace
the sorrow of a mother, the
grief of a father or the tears of
a family when they are con-
fronted with the broken and
lifelesS body of a child.
A child who will never know
the joys of childhood because a
motoriSt was careless and didn't
think to look in time.
For the past three months our
children have been free to roam
the Reservation in the happy
pursuits of childhood.
With their return to school,
they may be careless and forget
to look before crossing street,
highway or road.
While some of them may be
careless, all of them are still
children and they look to us, the
adults, to be careful and think
when driving.
Here in Apacheland, not too
many years ago, the fastest
means of travel was by horse.
Now we are caught in the auto
motive age of high speed ira
vel.
In Illinois, a safety slogan
goes like this:
Cars Can't Think
Children Don't Think
So You Think!
A moments thought behind
the wheel may save the life of a
child.
1t could be your child!

WHITERIVER-This month
hundreds of children, some as
young as six years of age, have
returned to classes in the vari-
Gus schools on the White Noun
tain Reservation.
With their return, we are
faced with the annual problem
of high-speed traffic endanger-
ing these children as they walk
the roads and highways of the
Reservation on their way to
classes.
Four times a day over 80 hap
py, laughing and carefree chill
dren walk down the main high
way running through White
river alone. Because of a lack
of sidewalks and other obStruc-
tionS they walk along the Shoul-
derS of the roads.
The roads, streets and trails
of the Reservation are carrying
an ever increasing load of truck,
car and pickup traffic, and this
movement of traffic, especially
in Whiteriver, has become
definite problem.
A problem that cannot be
solved alone by more signs, or
laws, or any of the standard
traffic controls. The problem
can be solved only by the indi-
vidual driver who must begin
to think.
We may believe that the vast
timber preserves on the reServa-
ton are our most valuable pos
sessions. Or that our greatest
assets are our cattle industries
or mineral deposits.
We are mistaken if we be-
lieve this!

Square Dance
Time

And a good time was had by all.
That was the general opinion of
everyone who attended the T h rd
Annual Crabtown Jamboree held
in Annapolis, Maryland, and spon-
sored by the Country Squares o f
Riva, Maryland.
Forty squares, representing
thirty-two clubs, danced to t h e
superb calling of Lee Billow of
Severna Park, Maryland, who was
the NC. for the evening. Also in
fine form were Tom Heron of Falls
Church, Virginia, Jack Carver o f
Baltimore, Maryland, md Bev
Kirkee of Silver Springs, Maryland,
who were the guest callers.
An added attraction this year
was Ginny Carver who did a fine
job of cuing round dances between
square dance tips.
AS usual, the Milford Club was
out in full force. Attending were
the McGinnis's, Widdowsons, Vim
yards, Smiths, Keens, Roosas, Cur
reys, Daviss', Links, Bowmans,
MOrgans, Gains, Sapps, Peppers

What is square dancing? Square
dancing is good, clean, healthy
form of exercise that is EASY :
FUN and FRIENDLY, and h e
same can be said for round dane
ing. If you would like to make new
friends, have a lot of fun doing it,
and still not put much of a dent
in the family budget; we think you
should look into the possibilities of
square dancing. If you like couple
dancing with group you will en-
joy round dancing.
Experience or aptitude for ball
room dancing is no requirement for
learning square dancing. Many o f
our best square dancers have never
done any ballroom dancing so don't
let that bother you.

A good mulch can relieve you of
the nuisance of weed pulling n

as important, a mulch will con-

According to Robert F. Stevens,

mulch of about 2 inches will ELI

few of the strongest perennial
weeds are able to grow up through
a thick mulch. Mulches virtually
can eliminate the need for hoeing
and only an occasional weed will
have to be pulled by hand.

servation of soil moisture. A good
mulch reduces the amount of water
lost through evaporation, extending
the supply available to plants. This
is particularly important during
hot or excessively dry weather.
Rain also soaks into mulched soil
more readily because the soils
physical condition is improved thru
use of a mulch.
You can use many different ma
terials for a satisfactory mulch,
Stevens says. Peat moss, leaves,
grass clippings, sawdust, pine need

hulls, straw and ground corn cobs
