An Open Letter To Drivers
Os Yancey County
Dear Driver:
Yoh don't know my little daugh- ]
ter Debby who is just six and j
has started her first year of i
school. i
You haven’t seen how she
turn from eager enthusiasm t$P
solemn unconcern to youthful ]
wisdom. No, you couldn’t know
hex or love her as I do —that’s 1
why it seems strange .that I have i
to trust her very'life to you! i
Yes, to you—because as she
marches off to school regularly
she’ll crossing streets, playing
along the way, frolicking around
the school.
I hoped I was preparing her [
when I threw in some advice j
about the safe way to do these ;
things—in answering her ques
tions about all the wonders of
the first grade.
But this is pretty new to her
and she may make mistakes.
Debby isn’t irresp onaible, yet
she is not responsible. For her, the 1
crushing dangers of traffic are
not real. I can tell, her, but it
would be like like describing the
Giant in the story of Jack and
the Beanstalk.
But you know and you can
watch out for her. You can watch
for her as she plays on the way
homo from school, and), you can
use caution when you see her
ready to cross the street.
You can be ready to stop if she
should dash out from behind a
parked car or follow a rolling ball
into the street. If you remember
how dear she is to me you’ll drive
slowly through every school zone.

TIUS WEEK’S SAFETY
MESSAGE
! By Cameron F. Mcßae, M. D.
| Last week we discussed the
safety of our children on their
I way to and from school. One of
I our readers has' suggested that, -
along this line, children should
i be trained to be on the look-out
( for oncoming motor traffic when
' getting on or off the school bus,
ahd especially when crossing the
road, even though motorists are
required by law to stop when a
school bus has stopped. It often
happens, as our reader points out,
that a motorist may rotind a
blind curve and come on a stop
ped school bps before he has
time ta-Stop his car. Parents and
teachers <jan help prevent acci
dents by training children not to
rely altogether on the motorist’s
compliance with the law, but to
exercise due care themselves
when crossing the road.

■ VN SY THS OLD TIMERS — ■-!
—— -
! From Bozo Texino, San Antonio,
{Texas: I remember about a ball
(Century ago when I started rail,
roading the callboy rode a horse.
The little 8-wheel steam locomo
tives burned coal,' and the local
'passenger trains stopped at all
pig trails. I remember firing one
,of these trains 154-miles a day and
the schedule was 10 hours and wei
went In late every day. ]
■ The conductor wore a Prince Al
bert uniform with brass buttons all
over it. He had a long handlebar
mustache and he was a lawyer,
doctor and scholar on all subjects
and spoke English and Spanish
fluently, as this train terminated
on the Mexican border. And every
thing was bilingual business. <
Outside of myself, the news
butcher was the busiest man on the
train; He sold soda water, ham
sandwiches, peanuts and popcorn.
Everybody ate, drank and was
.always merry. They seemed to
have more fun then than the pas
sengers who now fly around the
world. •
* * *
From Harvey A. Heath, Detroit,
Michigan: I remember when Ne
braska sandhill farmers raised
( watermelons for the sale of the
seeds. We could eat all we
wanted, the only restriction being
that the seeds be left in the empty
half shell. The flesh we could take
home, but the skin and the seeds'
we had to leave. All we wanted, for
free! v I
* And we bachelors used to buy
flour in 50 lb. sacks and neigh
boring housewives would bake it
into bread for us, keeping half o 1
the bread as their share.

. To Kits Or Not To Kiss? *|
j “When all ia said and done,
what is a kiss?”
If Cyrano de Bergerac could
have lonxed through Dr. Arthur
H. Bryan’s microscope, he might
never have asked.
Judging from Dr. Bryan's un
chivalrous but rigidly scientific
studies, a kiss is a good way to
transmit everything from cold
iffUiVs sores through vi-
J| rus “X” and
fIP pneumonia. Even
fatal k infections
-MSf-,'- ' along by “pro
longed osc u1 a«
t i o n s,” he says,
i ' * : At City College
' in Baltimore, the
i *mir, \Q3 biologist directed
a group of reluctant men and
> women to plant kisses on micro
scope slides and laboratory gela
i tine. He discovered the number of
1 germs transferred from the lips
lis directly proportional to the
length of a single kiss. > t
“A regulation Hollywood ten
second kiss transferred almost
twice as many germs as a short
two-second affair,” the scientist
reported in Drug and Cosmetic
industry.
Dr. Bryan’s work underscores
that the mouth is' a natural trap
not only for germs, but for dust,
dirt, pollen, chemicals and any
thing else that happens to be in
the air. Considering that we
breathe about 13 pints of air a
minute, it’s a wonder that all this
microscopic flotsam and jetsam
usually causes little more than an
occasional scratchy throat and
that can be soothed with troches
or the newer flavored antibiotic
lozenges like Candettes.
But Dc. Bryan did not put the
kiss of death on romance. Happily
for courting couples, more than 95|
percent of germs on the lips are)
harmless, he said. “Kissing can be 1
not only a pleasant, but a harmless'
pastime” if ordinary hygiene is
practiced. ifc,,,, "iMlt I
