Reminders Don't fofget to mark your calendar for the LPPOA meeting on Nov. 6 at the community house - 3 p.m. . Have you written for or mailed yourself a surprise package for the bazaar? A TEN FOOT MAN?? A human skelton was unearthed in Leixtip, Scotland, in August, 1812, of an unusually tall man. Each bone was almost twice the size of that of a normal hurrtan skelton. Could this be the person Keats mentioned in his writings? tfsing parjdrig lights when driving at dusk is like walking in a forest holding a candle. You can't see the trees for the lumps on your head. Turn on your low beams when twilight falls. High-speed highways are no place to poke along and enjoy the View. In fact, some states have established minimum speed limits that must be observed on high-speed roads. In brief, don't drive so slowly other drivers must take risks to pass you. Twenty-seven places in United States are named Franklin. The Drivers Seat The' wheels of government often turn slowly. When it comes to traffic safety, often the wheels get stuck altogether. More than thirty years ago conscientious safety experts began to worry about the hitor- miss systems of traffic regulations springing up in different states. These "forwardlooking individuals anticipated the time when drivers would travel long distances by automobile and pass through many states. They foresaw confusion if each state had its own motor vehicle regulations. In. 1927 the National Conference on Street and Highway Safety published a model Uniform Vehicle Code that recommehded a set of uniform regulations designed for nationwide use. The code was heralded widely. Certain Code provisions were adopted, but until last year no study had been made to determine which opes and how widely. Then the Federation ot Business and Prof e s s i o n a 1 Women's Clubs conducted a nation-wide survey oh the standards set up for traffic signs, signals and markings recommended by the code. The women found that the traffic sign situation is little improved from what it was thirty years ago. Of the fifty states'surveyed, only three had achieved as much as 75 per cent conformity to the recommended standards. Seventeen had achieved between 60 and 75 per cent conformity and the rest had less than 60 per cent conformity. Many dangerous traffic situations were found. Among them was the invisible railroad warning- sign. Few railroad crossings were marked, the VILLA* NURSING HOME I '£ ON PISTAKEE BAT NEAR McHENRY i I Home for the Aged | | SENILE . . . .

The survey report carried a strong recommendation for reflective signs to be set up at every railroad crossing. Perhaps the results of this project will awake state officials to the need for adopt|« standards of the Uniform V£nicle Code to end the confusion of signs and markings. But how long it will take is anybody's guess. The wheels of government turn slowly. One of the very few American cities sporting a waterfall in the business section is Spokane, Wash., with its 70 foot Spokane Falls. 9 BUILDING BLOCKS 4S "The flight's been cancelled, Mom, because the pilot didn't show up!
