According to the Institute for Safe Living, seat belts aid in absorbing the shock of an impact. They tend to restrain the force of a body blow against parts of a car, and also lessen the danger of beinj.-. thrown from the car. Thus, chances of survival are increased in most of the more prevalent accident situations. Marian Events On Feb. 24, the Marian Student Council will sponsor the second annual Mardi C.ras.

THE TTVSTDE STORY... COUNTY TV TOPICS TV STUFF by Ed Vestgard DOlTBLE TV TROUBLE Sometimes TV technicians are blamed when trouble recurs a short time after a TV set is repaired. This is like blaming your auto mechanic for bad brakes after he overhauls the motor. Reliable television firms carry substantially long guarantees on tubes and part replacements, and back-up their servicing jobs. But another breakdown could arise in another electronic section of the TV chassis. This is particularly true in old sets. We can hold down this kind of double-trouble to a minimum at COUNTY TV and Furniture Center because of our modern electronic equipment. We're able to service TV and radio quickly, and still, catch pending trouble signs for near-worn out parts. We'll let you know about these. This is why more and more folks phone 886-4020 for services. In the long run k costs you less. Call us next t}me and W us prove it. COUNTY TV & Furniture Center 841S W.

Each year hungry rabbits strip the bark from ornamental shrubs and fruit trees in search of food. The superintendent of plant industry, William T. Larkin, said repellents for rabbits are available commercially, and should be used according to recommendations of the manufacturer. Hardware cloth, or small mesh wire netting, placed around the trunks of trees and susceptible shrubs is also effective in protecting them. Trees and shrubs susceptible to rabbit appetites include apple trees, f l o w e r i n g c r a b s , J a p a n e s e quince, roses and cotoneasters, Larkin said.
