C. State University, June 7-11. Henry is a student at Hayesville High School and the son of Mr. and Mrs. Mas Chambers of Warne.

It is hoped that Night Safety Beads Dotted, double, broken-solid painted lines, and other high way markings are "literally the Morse Code of Safety " ac cording to John P. Manley, of Potter Bros., a Carlstadt, N. J. highway marking company. Far too many Americans are not 'tuning in' to these safety signals, and this is detrimental to safe driving," he explained. Calling attention to the in crease in accidents after dusk, he said that the growing use of glass beads which make the painted lines reflective is one development aiding nighttime visibility by creating a path of reflected light. A Home Safety Tip New York Police advise that all residences should have stronger security measures in eluding a double-lock for the entrance door, as well as a chain bolt lock. The chain should be short so that a hand cannot reach inside and be long enough for you to see the per son at your door. Tread Softly For those who desire "peace and quiet" acoustical tests have shown carpet with a ?? inch foam rubber underlay to be the best overall "sound con ditioner" for a house or apart ment. It will absorb airborne sounds, reduce noise generated by footsteps and other impacts and virtually eliminate many small sounds such as the shuffle "f fli t. It doubles the effective ness of the eariiet in sound reduction. the boys will obtain a greater appreciation of natural resources; what can be done to use these resources more wisely; career opportunities in these fields; and will pass this information along to their fellow students here in Clay and Cherokee counties, one year term beginning June 1, 1971.
