These signals are not supported
by tbt'wresence of a police of
ficer, t f motorists are trusted
to obe^ ■'them without such in
timidation. Of course, punish
ment is often swift and deadly
to the violator, but the unfortu
nate thing is that innocent vic
tims are usually involved, when
such an offense is committed.
Obviously, only a reckless fool
will deliberately endanger his
own life by totally disregarding
traffic signals, but there are too
many motorists today who are
nullifying the value of these
by “cheating” on them. I refer
to drivers who run through the
orange lights or “get ready’’ sig
nals of intersection traffic con
trols, or who merely slow down
a bit at “Stop” signs, without
coming to the full, safe pause
that is intended, for example.
This sort of thing breeds a con
tempt for traffic signals, and Is
in itself extremely dangerous
and a potential cause of serious
accidents.
Our safety lesson today treats
this hazard and I 'incerely hope it

all motorists who see it to bear in

challenge to their good faith and
law abiding character, designed

from our past experiences and
observations, however, we are
destined to run along in much
the same manner as in the past.
’There has never been any one
year or even a period ot time
that has a monopoly on all the
great and startling events of
history. We have lived to an age
when we need not be astonished
at any event that might happen.
As long as the earth retains its
rotnndlty and continues to re
volve methodically upon Us axis
w® need have no tears ot any
great impending calamity provid
ed our lives hav® been planned
along th® strait an norrow way.
Wie will no doubt continue to
have wars, for conquest as long
as we have an Imperfect human
ity, we will 'have upsets in the
political world which in the long
run amount 4o but little. There
is one great consolation to all
humanity, whether It be relig
iously inclined or not, there is a
gradual increase in a real spirit
of unity and tolerance among the
really rellgrous people of the
world. You need not brand the
religious world with any parti
cular sect or denomination, be
lieve it Or not it is those who
have a high regard for brother
hood and religion that continues
to pilot the old globe along Us
unknown and uncharted pathway,
to a better condition of life.
This is only a little Involuntary
subconscious reflection, however,
that w® cannot help but visnalize
on when we push out into a new
year. We started out to tell the
news happenings in and around
the little village and community
of Ferguson.
The Christmas Holidays have
come and gone without any very
startling occurences in our midst.

MSujUUfeaW particularly when you can get
more motoring pleasure in addition to substan
tial savings ... and that is the happy experi
ence of people who buy new 1936 Chevrolets.
This new Chevrolet is fast! It’s spirited! It
goes places as you want your new car to go!
And goes tcUh less gas and oil! All of which
naturally makes it a much better investment.
Then, too, the new Chevrolet for 1936 is
smarter, safer and more comfortable to ride in
tliRii any other car selling at or near its price.
Come in—take a ride in this only complete
loto-pricedcar—and get proof of its greater value.
