By 1976, at the present, rate, the second million will have been killed. We are an auto generation. And ?nr present trend of thinking seems paral lel to the British officer. We've grown accustomed to the idea that accidents are the inevitable by-product of our ever-expanding mobility. .

In Wholesale lota, Bke the 1,080 killed last year in North Carolina, these deaths produce some faint cries. But the protests arc rather like thoee of the conscientious Objectors of both World Wars ?

We did in 1918, again In World War IL It is hard, to underetand then why unnecessary killing is tolerated. It's hard to underetand why we permit au tomobiles to cut down thousands in North Carolina, millions in the nation. Like In war, when everyone is threat ened everyone has a responsibility for defense. But traffic continues to exact its toll ? and we don't five a "tinker's damn."

"Einstein's equation, al every body knows, is E eqaals s?2, i? which E is still energy, m stands for mass and c is the speed of light. "Let as start with E eqaals vh, where E stands for the energy used by man to support himself and his fellow travelers on earth, v lit the velocity of circulation of people and things, and h for human nature, which is a constant which changes very little. "This equation describes better than say long Story an economic condition of a certain place at a certain time." Using Einstein's equation, he aays, "E is still the same energy we just described. But h, the hu man constant, has been replaced by as (maaa), which in eootiophy sics represents material things in circulation at a certain speed . . .

Mr. Huskins continues: "Nor are we disposed to fault the lawmak ers for that We suppose it ia all right for them to appropriate state funds for the restoration of the past down east; bat we do wish they would not look with such a jaundiced eye when we here in the Piedmont, who put up most of the money anyway, need a little assistance ia trying to build the fciturt."

Keith will preseot a record of his shots at the pre Irhssl clinic at Beaufort School Friday, April 17, at 1 p.m. Our North Carolina state law requires that children be lmmiitlised against diphtheria and whoop ing cough at the age of six months and a booster dose be fore entering first grade. Many doctors give a booster dose of diphtheria, whooping cough, tet anus (triple shot) each year. This keeps up their immunisa tion against tetanus and makes it unneceaaary to give tetanus anti-toxin in case the child la severely cut or sticks a nail in his foot. Smallpox and polio immuni zations are also required. Parents have had six years to complete these immanizatlons and it was felt best by school : and medical authorities to dis continue shots on pre-school day, thus making it a happy day for the new students. Birth certificates must be presented on pre-school day. A record of your child's shots (diphtheria, whooping cough, smallpox and polio) are re quired by the school before a child can enter first grade. These can be obtained from the one who gives the immuniza tion, your family doctor or your health department. Keith Long gets shot BOYS' RANCH FOUNDER LISTS CHILD REARING PRINCIPLES A boy needs parents, not push-overs, according to Cat Farley, founder of Boya' Ranch at Amarillo, Tex. The principles of rearing a boy are "dcccptivcly simple. Maybe that'a why they are so easily forgotten ... or not properly learned." Farley said in Today's Health, published by the American Medical Association. Boys' ranch accommodates 220 youngsters and is expanding its facili ties for another 500. In 20 years, 1,400 boys . . . most from homes broken by family trouble or death . . . have lived at the ranch. About 40 per cent of the boys were in some kind of trouble with the law and the others were headed that way. Only 37 boys were failure*, Farley said. The ranoh has ns special disciplinary staff member. Every adult has authority over a boy while with him. "This way the boy learns to respect and obey all adults. Equally im portant, when a boy step* out of line we correct him immediately," Farley said. "Just keep boys on the beam, supervise and teach them until they finally understand and they'll turn out okay." Farley listed the five guiding rules for rearing boys at Boys' Ranch. They arc: Teaching the boy to obey. This is the most difficult job and the moat important. When a child is allowed to set his own rules be will grew up without any rulea at all. Llvtag with the boy. By helping him to enjoy his youth, he can be shown how his boyhood years can be used to equip himself for manhood. Being specific with the boy. Adults should let him know where they stand . . . and therefore where he itaads. Then he la not confuacd by doubt, uncertainty or conflict. Giving him rrsponitbiiity. By making a boy feel part of the working team at the ranch (or at home), ho will understand how to be part of the team in whatever sphere of life he enters. Loving him. The boy must be shown that love can't be measured Jrf what one gets or gives but in how one conducts himself. It it ? kind of mutual respect. V j * mm gogb oh &?9 THIRTY YEARS AGO Carl T.
