number one problem in highway
safety. All municipal authorities
in towns where police protection j
is available, should have the pro-1
gram ready for the opening of
school. Municipal authorities have
been prone to assist to the fullest
in the campaign to stop ac-1
eidents in Brunswick County.
The campaign "watch out for
aur children" has already begun
in thn nnnntv nronaration for the I
opening of schools just 3 weeks
off. On this day many children
in Brunswick county will be on
the highways going to and from
school. Approximately 6,000 of
this number will be on school
buses and the other 50% will be
pedestrians on the sidewalks and
highways. Motorists are cautionid
to observe safety precautions
at all times. Under the laws for
the operation of a school bus,
the bus does not leave the center
of the highway when stopping
to take on or put on school chilIren.
It is unlawful to pass a
school bus while engaged in taking
on or putting off children
until the motorist has come to |
a complete stop. Although the
law permits passing, under cer-'
tain conditions, it is requested j
that all motorist stop and remain
stopped until the school bus
has given an all clear signal. ;
Each school bus is equipped with
a dual signalling device. A large i
side signal with the word "stop" j
is on each bus. The driver of
the bus must display this signal j
at all times when approaching
a stop and while engaged in his !
passenger work. All children who j
are to cross the highway must

do so, in leaving the bus, from ^
in front of the bus while it is |
stopped. No child is permitted to !
cross a highway from the rear
of a stopped school bus. Although !
this rule is rightly enforced, oc- j
casionally a child will run around j
the rear of the bus and attempt
to cross the highway. Several
children have been struck in Co-j
lumbus County in this manner. |
Motorists are urged to watch out
for this situation at all times i
when approaching a school bus,
either from rear or front.
Motorists are cautioned to ob- [
serve the school zone law when];
passing a school while the chil- j
dren are on the highway either |1
to or from school and while chil- j
dren are at play at the school, j I
The speed limit in a school zone i
is 15 miles per hour for any auto- i
mobile. The school zone is clearly
defined by signs along the high
way at each school. This is of
special importance in the moring,I'
at noon, and in the afternoon on j
school days. (

The pupils were asked to con- j,
struct a sentence containing the j
word "amphibious." As quick as ;

gave out the following: "Most j

Teacher: "Sammy, you know'
that you mustn't laugh in the!
schoolroom."
Sammy: "I know, ma'am. I was
only smiling and the smile burst"

IT'S JUST a can of soup. But
during a long lifetime, the
man who made it found some
way to advertise it. At first, ,
just a sign over his little soup
kitchen, a few newspaper ads, !
a few billboards. But as the
advertising grew, so did the"]
business.
Now the business employs
thousands of workers, helps to
support tens of thousands of
retail clerks and transportation
men, and gives the housewife
a better, cheaper soup <
than she could prepare at i
home.
