CARPENTihR S c c r c t a r y of S t . 1 to Just about one of the easiest ways for a motorist to become Involved in an accident is £d continually weave from one land of traffic to the other. In the continuous battle of some drivers to "save" a few seconds of time (at the risk of their lives) these motorists will pick up the ridiculously dangerous: habit of weaving in and out of the lanes Of traffic. That the drivpr puts little value on his own. life is but one of the considerations. More important in this ease is that he is willing to sacrifice the lives of others because of his lack of courtesy. One can easily imagine the possibilities of an accident occurring when a driver weavtos in and out just prior to making a turn. And as unbelievable as it may seen, some of these drivers have been known to weave in and out of traffic and then oi^t in front of another vehicle to make a right hand turn. Also, such a motorist 1B unaware or unconcerned of the fact that such driving tactics are very apt to cause him to miss a traffic signal which could result in a serious accident.

HeaJA Talks NEW LIVES FOR OLD One of the most brilliant and satisfying advances in modern medicine is the rehabilitation of the physically handicapped person. Through it new courage is imbued in,the sightless, the hard or hearing, the cardiac, the congenially disabled and the person handicapped through accident, tne educational committee of the Illinois State Medical society observes in HEALTH TALK. What is rehabilitation of the handicapped? It is the'training period designed to restore use as far as possible to the affected part; to utilize the prostheses!, or appliances that substitute for missing limbs; to give courage to a despondent patient whose livelihood has been cut off because of the disablement. The over-all; objective is to return the hand-- capped" person to a state of usefulness, the ability to earn his livjng and to take an active part in his community. Rehabilitation is a teamwork effort. It requires close coordination on the part of physicians, speech counselors, physical therapists, psychologists, occupational therapists and job counselors. For example, should a patient WORWICK'S McHenry Camera Center Cameras Photographic Equipment Amateur and Professional Bought, Sold and Exchanged PHOTO SUPPLIES View Masters and Reels Color Films Processed Family Albums See Us Before Yon Bay Worwick's Studio 117 N. Riverside Drive PHONE McHENRY 275 be a hemlpliegic, that & a person who, because of a cerebral hemorrhage or apoplexy, has suffered an injury to the brain which resulted in a paralysis of one arm and leg both on the same side of the body, he must be taught many things. Speech, for examjple. He may be able to think words but not to pronounce them. Then he must learn to walk to achieve the proper balance heretofore supplied by two normal legs, and he must learn to use the affected arm by exercising it through physical therapy. Leg and arm braces may be necessary. Then the patient may be a paraplegic, that is one in whom the use of the legs is gone. Or the patient may be an amjputee, that is a person who has One or more extremities missing. Special types of prostheses are now developed to assist these patients to a new road of selfmanagement, so they can not only do things for themselves, such as dressing and eating, but can fulfil gainful employment. This process of rehabilitation is not a development for the future. It is with us today and should be understood by every- }I nmjtap.

Mattheslus Phone 718 one. We know that the patient can be rehabilitated, but what is harder to achieve is the 'rehabilitation of the people that make up his community, litis rehabilitation aims toward education of the community - and industry to understand that the physically handicapped person is part of the people and should be accepted as such. Once the community and industry understand that the disabled person can contribute, the paths of progress can be expanded. Until comparatively recently industry closed Its doors to the handicapped. The myth that they were' "risks" has been exploded in the light of numerous statistics to prove they were involved in fewer accidents and had less absenteeism than the non-handicapped worker.

While the fellow was looking over some stuff on the counter, Ruck handed a free peppermint stick to the boy, who promptly tore off the wrapper and went to work on it. Th^ father seemed quite put out about his son's lack of manners and held up his hand to stop him. "What do we say when Mr. Benson gives us something?" he demanded. "Charge it," replied the kid without hesitation. From where I sit, children aren't the only ones who "repeat things" without knowing what they're talking about. For instance, Tnt convinced that many of those who speak out against the old American custom of enjoying a glass of beer after work are just parroting what they've heard others say. It's better to get the facts--then make up dur own mindt--and permit our neighbors to do the same.
