The narrow road leading from the residence of Kermit Cody to the Marshall Recreation Park is fast becoming one of the most dangerous strips in the corporate limits. For some reason, or lack of reason, many teenagers are reck lessly driving on this strip as if it were a speedway. Something must be done to protect them as well as others who use this road. Although there is a 15-mile-per-hour limit on this road, several are com pletely ignoring the law. It is impossible for a policeman or any other of ficer to be "everywhere at the same time." When some of the youngsters know where the policeman is, they will act like cfczy and when a policeman does get close by, naturally, they slow down. In order to help stop this reckless and useless practice, it must become the duty of the residents who live on this road to take down license numbers and names and turn them in to the proper authorities. Then the residents must "back up" their actions when the case is heard before J. Hubert Davis. This seems to be the only way in which these violations can be curbed. By this cooperation of residents, those who persist in making this road a speedway can be cited, tried and fined. Some complain that cars and "squealing rubber" are becoming quite common, even late at night. Tnis practice MUST be stopped before a serious accident occurs. You can help if you want to. -oOo- HAZARD CHIMNEYS V a MTinauoV monf nrrnrred iir Marshall Tuday morning when several bricks from a chim- ney on a house on Mam street leu, BtriKinjj me walk with a few bricks landing in the street. For tunately, no one was passing the residence at the time of the mishap. Local firemen went to the scene and quickly tore down the remaining portions of the chim ney which threatened to fall on the roof and side walk. When Fire Chief Allen Duckett and fireman Jimmy Sprinkle started tearing down the chimney they discovered that the bricks were loose and the "mortar" was nothing but sand. The other chimneys at the house are also in a dangerous condition. It isn't often that a chimney falls, but at the same time, it might be wise to inspect your chimneys and if they look to be in a dangerous condition it would well pay you to get them rebuilt before dam age is done to your roof or perhaps injury to some person.

'I ;' $ t'i rrikern arf i L J THEliikaV ; LISTEN MEN I "lAhewise, yt hutbandt, dwell with them (your w wivtt) accord ing , to knowledge, giving' honour unto the wife, . I Peter 8:7a, Are you ; a married man? If you are, . you should . read this carefully. If you are not mar ried, you should read it before you get married. Being a husband is a difficult task, because very few husbands understand their wives. Peter says, If you want to be happy as a husband, you must use some common sense That is the meaning of the phrase, "dwell with them accord' ing to knowledge." Consider the welfare of your wife before your own. Live to iplease your wife and not yourself. Consider her desires before your own. And then Peter adds: "giving honour unto the wife." The word "hon our" anay be translated "digni ty." The husband is to make bis wife feel dignified, proud of her husband. The word "honour" al so may be translated import ance." Do you ever tell your wife bow really important she is, or do you make her feel embar rassed and inferior? It's those little things you remember which really count. Do you remember anniversaries? These are im portant to a woman. Do you ev- er tell her she is beautiful? It will not make her viain, don't worry. How long since you've told her, "I love you more than ever?" Do you ever comment on her now hat? Does she ever hear word of appreciation for some special dish? Little things, you say? Oh, no, these are big things they give dignity to love. They make a woman feel she is needed, important yea: lnaispens&me. uur -great exam ple is Jesus. Paul says in E phesians 5:25: "Husbands love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave him self for it." He GAVE HIM SELF! What are you GIVING to the one YOU love? She wants more tJhan clothes, a home, and gadgets It is love which gives dignity to a faithful - wife, and mother. For true lovers the honeymoon never ends. (M.R-D.) Memorv Vers.

Gray) Make Your Farm A Safer Place This week is National Farm Safety Week. Each year farm ac cidents cost farmers and their families much misery, and, in some instances, death. Most of these accidents could be prevented by taking the proper precautions at the proper time. Too many times "the barn door is closed after the bull escapes." , Mr. John ' Silver of the White Oak section in Madison County says hat a seemly harmless tool left out of place may cause a se rious accident. He referred to a rake not properly stored which he stepped on and was almost knocked out by the rake handle. Our farms and homes can be a safer place in which tov live. Let's make it our goal for each member of the household to elim inate at least one hazard in thev home or on the farm. .

He was mi nug a car due to the decision of his car owners, Eddie Joyner and Toy Jones, to keep their racers out of competition for a while. But Jones and Joyner agreed to put tfieir racers back in the field when Track Director C. F. Powell said measures have been taken to reduce recent alleged rough driving instances. The decision to re-field their cars means that Jones and Joy ner also will put the racers driv en byvDick Plemmons and Rags Carter back on the track. 'Thus, it is expected that Banjo and Ralph Earnhardt will again hook up in a fast race. They've been battling it out all season with Banjo holding the upper hand, five victories to Earrfhardt's one. Sportsmen will compete in a 40-lap feature, two 10-lap heats and a 15-lap consolation. Ama teurs scheduled to run a 30-lap main event and three 10-lap heats. Time trials will begin at 7' and racing at 8. In addition to the regular rac es, a 10-lap Powder Puff Derby will be held for women drivers.
