CARPENTIER See r e t j r y of S t . 1 to T On November 24 the nation will spend the day giving thanks for the ttany blessings received by all of us. Let's make sure that on November 25 we will still be able to be thankful because our family is still Intact--that no one has become a traffic fatality over the holiday.

There are relatives and friends to be visited; parties to be attended; a lot of things to be accomplished and little time in which to do them. 8peed is the essence. But speed alone is not responsible for deaths on the highways. Here in Illinois, in nonposted areas, motorists are allowed to drive their autos at a "safe and reasonable" speed. If a driver sticks to that "safe and reasonable" limit, he will be well on the way to avoiding an accident. But he must also consider the condition of the road, be ever on the alert for the unexpected and follow the rules of the road. c°Py t^e completely new 'Rules of the Road" booklet will be sent to you free upon request.
