FACE EIGHT THE FRANKLIN PRESS AND THE HIGHLAND? MACON IAN THURSDAY, APRIL 11 W SUNDAY WILL BE SAFETY DAY Ministers Will Deliver Special Messages On Safe Driving i The Ministerial association of Franklin is cooperating with the press, the radio, and the Carolina Motor Club in their war on high way deaths in sponsoring "Safety . Sabbath" on April 18. The minis ters of Frankliq and community are being asked to bring special messages' on this day to their con gregations in regard to safety on our public roads. Last year this special day was held on the Sunday preceding July 4 in an effort to curb the high, toll of deaths injuries and accidents on the highways that usually occur on this anniversary of the nations birth. Only one fatality was report ed over the Carolinas for that day. Everyone is cordially invited to at tend the services of the churches In Franklin and community .next Sunday morning and enlist in this mobilization for highway safety. The following proclamation has ' been issued by George B. Pattern, Mayor of Franklin, urging obser vance of "Safety Sabbath:" Proclamation The appalling number of prevent able accidents and deaths upon the highways of our community, State and Nation has become a menace of major concern to all the people. Our beautiful threads of travel, de signed for pleasure and trade have been converted by the reckless driver and the careless, incompe- tent operator into lanes of horror. Daily the newspapers carry gory accounts of lost limbs and lives and of maimed and injured bodies. On Sunday, April 18, the Caro lina Motor club is sponsoring a Carolina-wide observance of "Safe ty Sabbath." This date being se lected upon the eve of summer travel season in an effort to make the general public safety-conscious, so as to decrease, if not eliminate, the terrible road tragedies incident to the seasonal increase in the use of automobiles. I, therefore, proclaim April -18, Safety Sabbath in this community, and do hereby urge the leaders of religious "and civil t life to fittingly observe with well-planned programs this date, and by precept and ex ample to foster the ideal of con sideration for the rights of others, ta the end that the irreducible minimum in accidents and death may 'be accomplished. The ministers, the Sunday school superintendents and the. laymen can, by a strong sermon, a prayer offered or a word spoken, join the program in encouraging a concen tration of thought upon this prob? lem. .

What shall I plant in my garden ? Consider the daily food essentials needed. Plan the garden so that the family will have enough of each of these for use fresh in the summer and canned for winter use. . It is just as impossible to build up the human body and keep it in good health without the proper amount of the necessary foods as it is impossible to make a per fect cake with the wrong propor tion of sugar, butter, baking powder or flour. The wrong amount of each of the ingredients in a cake makes a sad cake, the wrong amounts or the wrong mixtures of foods make woefully sad specimens of humanity.

"Critics of Works Progress Ad ministration accuse us of digging trenches and then filling them up," continued Mr. Coan, "but they neglect to add that we put sewer line or water pipe in these ditches before they are filled. "The paramount concern of WPA has been employment for relief laborers," the state administrator observed, "but our purpose in re leasing this accomplishment re port is to show North Carolina tax payers that the efforts of these thousands have been directed to wards projects of lasting usefulness, Oyer one hundred and fifty mayors and chairmen of county boards of commissioners have expressed them selves as being highly gratified with work relief in "Tarheelia."
