I PAGE CUSU Uniform Ro Designed to To Travellir Reading and obeying bighway signs is an important part of safe driving. To assist the mo- to'ist Ontario bas been intro- ducing for some time now a uniform system of highway signs. Four Types These are in four distinctive shapes and calors. A sign with a vertical rectangle and white background indicates a traffce regulation, sucb as a speed lim- it. A sign actangular in shape, with rcd background always means a full stop before pro- ceeding. Diamond Éhaped signs with yeilow background and black lettering and markings rreans warning, and drivers should slacken speed and be on the lookout for the conditions the sjgns describe. Fînaily, hor- izontal rectangle, with green background, and with white lettering indicates destination. or information. Special signs, blue in color. with white mnarkings, indicate r hiool zones or crossings, and recquire speed adjusted ta, this condition. On new stop signs the aid' words, Througb Highway, are eliminated in favor of the sim- ple word, STOP. This means coming ta a full stop, not mere- lv slackening speea, then pro- ceeding when the way is clear. Speed limit regulatian signs indicate the. maximum speed permîtted by law under. ideal conditions. This is nat a target,' but a limit, and under poor con- ditions drivers may be charged for driving too fast for road or traffie conditions, whatever the igns say. Warning Signa Warning sigas of ail types are now diamond shaped and have black lettering. These replace the famiiar white and black signs. These include sucb warn- irigs as Divided higbway ends, Narrow road ahead, Concealed intersection, Narrow subwgy ahead, Signais ahead, Dead end, Deer crossing or cattie crossing, Stop ahead* Swing bridge, Steep bll ahead, Narrow bridge, Pavement narrows, Divided highway ahead, Two way traf- tic ahead and Soft Shoulders. The famniliar checkperboard in- dicating a sharp right angle turn, will now be a yellow'dia- inond with black checkerboard border, and the sright angle mark in the centre. One of the newer signs in this clasg is the yield right of way marking, which means that the motorist approaching such a sign must Vield the rigbt of way ta mo- torists approaching from right ta left, and must slow ta 15 miles per, hour. . Railroad crossing signa will aiso be yellow, with additional signs showing how many tracks there are and the angle at which the road intersects the tracks. 0f course the 20 mph speed lim- it at crossings remains in force. Other famiiar signs show turns, intersections and j une- tions as usual. Other regulatory signs, on white background, indicate parking rules, turns permissible and similar rules. Traffie Signals Traffic signais are also im- portant signs. A green light is commonly thaugbt ta mean simply Go. But accarding ta law the green light means that drivers may proceed if the way is clear.

During the three months, June, July and Au- gust, this average jumped ta 115. Injuries averaged 2,5001 each month, rising ta 2,900 ini the summer months. It bas been estimated that the eeonomic loas resuiting from these summer accidents amount- ed ta over $41,000,000. This eost is a hidden tax imposed on every citizen in Ontario whe- ther he operates a motor vehi- cie or flot. Each one of Ontario's two million drivers could have bad a vacation bonus of $20.00, and 82 cbildren would have return- ed ta sehool in Septemnber if this needieps waste of life, beaith and property had not oc- curred. MO VIE RE VIE W RoyaL. MOU.-Thur., Aug 4 -7 7-ith ic:Hudson, Jenih:., Wlth ]Rock Hudson, Jenniter Jones. (Cinem&Scope « DeLuze Color) With caressing care David 0. Selznick has produced a stun.- ning entertainment fromn the Ernest Hemingway novel. After a retirement from the screen of çlose ta a decade Da- vid O. Selznick signais bis re- turn with a spectacular display of showmanship. As a roman- tic tragedy of World War 1, based on Ernest Hemingway's celebrated novel, A Farewell ta Arms is a picture of extraor- dinary scope, beauty and appeal. It bas been accorded a lustrous production treatment by Seiz- nick that includes CinemaScope1 and DeLuxe colar as weil as some of the most lyricaily-beau- tiful location scenes of Itaiy ever to reach the screen. Those with long cinema mem- aries Wiil recali Paramount's 1932 Production starring Helen Hayes, Gary Cooper and Adol- phe Menjou. In the current ver- sion it is Rock Hudson, Jenni- fer Jones and Vittorio De Sica v that hold forth. The Piicture stands as a superb achievement in the popular and lively art of motion pictures. Measured by any barometer of popularity it' wili range tremendously with the paying customers. De Sica portrays the cynical Italian doctor always involved with women or in friendly ar- gument with Aiberto Soridi, a priest. Thus same of Heming- wav 's philosophy about God and man are fitted unobtrusiveiy into the background of the story for the delectation of the more discriminating moviegoer. Hemingway's well-known no- vel has been translated into just about every language in whichi 1books are printed. Ben Hecht1, always a consummate crafts- man, has given it a screenplay of matching skill. The Photo- graphiv bv Piero Portalupi and Oswald Morris, and the musc by Maria I'ýascimbene are a strong partrershirn in the dedi- cationi of a beautifully touching- movie.

His mother, Mrs. Kathleen Musson, ber face also working, stepped off an airliner* from London, England, and into the 'arms of the tall young man she hadi give~n up for adoption as an infant 29 years before. Later she left with Don and bis 31-year-old brother, Fred Musson. for Lindsay and a two- month visit to Fred's farmn home where families of both sons will live during ber stay. How did it feel tu find a mother? Don groped for words, gestured futilely with his hands. "Well," he sald "you under- stand. And to rediscover a lost son? Mrs. Musson also-groped. "Wonderful," she said at last, lamely. Deserted By Husband Mrs. Musson was deserted by her husband before Don was born, when she was 21. Dis- traught, she feit her child's best chances lay in being raised as a son ini the home of good adop- tive parents. She took he; oLder son, Fred, to live with her mother in Eng- land, and did not return to Can- ada until today. She heard Don hid been placed with well-to- do parents, an important con- sideration during the depres- sion and war years. Don was adopted by a Whil- lans family. *11 guess it was al right until his wife -died when I was a year old," he said. "4Then there was a succession of house- keepers." When Don showed up in kmn- dergarten one day bleeding from a beating administered by a housekeeper, be was turned over to the children's aid. He was raised in 13 foster homes, in two of which he was happy, and beiieved himself to be an Illegitimate child. Don urgentlyý wanted to find his mother, to tie up -the, ends of bis existence and neyer lost hope.
