Pay Attention To i
Highway Signs
Paraphrasing Abraham Llncoln'e
famous utterance, Ronald Hocutt, di
rector of the Higghwav Safety Division.
said this week that "you" can
ignore some warning signs all of
ihe time. and all warning signs
Mime of the time, but >pu can't ig- {
nore all warning signs all of the
time." ' ,
The safety director made this
comment .after lonkng over a report!
tgJMvh ahowed that 12."XaiihH"Ytf inians
were killed and more than a !
score injured during the first six |
months of this year as a result of j
Mtiasliiug into brtdne abutments. j
< overpasses and underpasses.
' " There is no conceivable excuse ,
for accidents of this nature." said \
Hocutt, "It is true that a cowl ma- I
' snhe ovm-pusses and. underhasse are
dangerously narrow, but every sinI
gle one of them la plainly marked.
It will take lots of time anil money
to widen all these bridges and underpasses.
and moanwhHe it is up to
j motor vehicle' operators to pay at'
tint-ion to the signs the State has
erected to call attention to these
I hazards."
llocutt stated that every one of
j the CO highway bridges aiul underpasses
into which automobiles
smashed during the first half of
this year were plainly indicated by
' large warning signs. These signs
read: Dangr ? Narrow Bridge; or
Slow ? Underpass Ahead, or some
such warning message.
| "You just can't continually ignore
warning sigs without eventually
coming to grief." Hocutt declared. '
"My advise to drivers is to read and I
heed every highway warning you I
see. Nlnet-nlne times out or a hund-1
red you might be able to Ignore a Isign
without meeting with an accl- '
dent, but you never know whrleh
time is the hundredth.
Profitable maintenance of the soybean
industry at its present level ot
production may be materially- affected
by the rigid blockade surrounding
warring European countries.

ries plain and berries fancy,
try a new trick. It s raspberry roll
which folds juicy raspberries in a
crisp pastry. It's delicious, you'll
agree.
An aid to shorter hours indoors is
the new self-rising flour which
makes hot biscuits, cakes and desserts
in two shakes. The baking
powder and salt are ready-mixed
into it, thus a double saving of (1)
price of these two ingredients, and
(2) the time of sifting them with
the flour.
