MurxisTn Overfoken

The us. would be happier in a world
that was not only safe for democracy but
entirely democratic. But we have adjusted
to the fact that this is not likely to come
about. The USSR believing in its own in
carnations, has hitherto envisioned a Com
munistic world. But Moscow must see this
is most improbable. 1t has simultaneously
been faced down by an adversary and
stabbed in the side by partner. One would
hope these stark facts might produce q
realization that dogmatic Mar7dsm has been
overtaken by pragmatic events. - O. L.

LOVE AND LAUGHTER

Beauty in your own back yard.
Coming into the kitchen to start breakfast one
morning you find that last nights huge melon colored
moon still is shining through the trees to the west
But as you work, the deep purple tones of the sky
fade to avendar, then rosy pink and going into the
living room to sweep curtains back there is the
scarlet head peerng the hill So that in the space
of few minutes you have them both-sunriSe and
moonset.
AS your husband aptly phrases it when you tell
him: well, you got the up and put the moon to
bed!"

The figures simply point up
c ontention held by many persons in
assessing responsibility for the
ragic accident rate on our high
ways. That nice guy. Mr.. Solid
Citizen, the friendly neighbor next
door, who'll lend you his lawn
mower, feed your dog while you're
on vacation. and help you in time
of need is the person who must heed
the traffic safety message.
What makes that nice guy or
that good neighbor violate the rules
of safe driving. He proved he knew
the laws and safe driving habits
when he passed his license test in
Arizona. Is he pre-occupied, "mad
at the world, "thoughrless, or does
he think traffic laws are made for
every one but him.
Highway Patrol officers have
pointed out many times the three
rs of driving. They are Inatten-
tion, Impatience. and Irresponsi-
bility. Motorists can solve the
accident problem in Arizona by
being Attentive, Patient and Re-
sponsible. When motorists all re-
alize that fact. believe it, and at
temp to put the knowledge to good
use, the accident problem in our
state will be solved.
