The melancholy of darkness gently sweeps away the rainy
tears/L
ißlt
A thousand dreamy fancies burst into my head - as I listen to
the patter of the soft rain overhead •
As I listen to the murmur of the soft rain on the roof -a
thousand recollections weave their bright hues into a long
wool scraf worn loosely around a lady’s shoulders •
I sit and think when the sunset’s gold - with ringlets of
winters cold -
Somewhere, I know on the unseen shore - she will not sunder
the scraf - depart -
As the clouds lay sleeping across the Azure sky • A little
silver bell was rining across the country side - In town a
mother entered her daughter’s room - Thinking she was
asleep -
Call her for supper - As a silver bell rang the little raindrops
keep sinking and ran trickling to the ground-
So, with an equal splendor the morning sun-rays meet the
eternity of glory -
The long bright scarf with its thousands of bright hues of
colors weave a dream -
The melancholy of darkness gently sweeps away the rainy
tears until a brighter day emerge •
Look at the cold radiant scarf winter wears as his broad-face
smiles on the land - with a hollow cold blast.

Warning To Drunk" Drivers
WASHINGTON, D. C. -
When is enough enoueh? ■;
When it comes to mixing
alcohol and driving, more
than enough is when your
judgment and reactions
begin to be affected.
This is the warning from
Norman Darwick, executive
director of the International
Association of Chiefs of
Police, who represents
enforcement authorities
throughout the nation.
A person’s tolerance for
liquor depends upon many
factors, Darwick contends -
weight, food intake,
medication, even the sex of
the driver since recent
surveys indicate that
women in general have a
lower tolerance for alcohol
than most men.
Darwick’s point is that
each individual should know

his own limits and ad just his
behavior accordingly, when
it comes to in
traffic - either as a driver or
as a pedestrian.
“You take chances and
misjudge risks entirely
differently when you’re
under the influence than you
would stone-cold sober,”
Darwick claims.
“An officer observing
your behavior in traffic has
no way of knowing .the
factors I’ve just mentioned.
He can only conclude that
your actions are not librntal
and that he must take the
necessary steps to get you
off the road.”
This is especially critical
at this time of year when
adverse winter conditions
require a clear head and
sound thinking. ~
Darwick, who in addition'
to his IACP duties is also a
director of the Safe Winter
Driving League,
headquartered in Chicago,
went on to review recom
mended driving techniques
that require a motorist’s
unclouded attention during
the winter months; ' ’
