Cdaily newspaper ia, a httlf square entitled "The Bloodshed Boxscore," in which highway accidents are reported by the State Motor Vehicle 'department for the 24 hour period ending at 4 o'clock P. M. This is the . record for one state for one day: -8 killed and 95 injured. Killed to date in 1950, 408. Many of thosa who were injured, so maimed will they be" for life. It is a great reflection on the in telligence of human beings that they hold their lives so cheaply. - God has given them only one life to live, yet tney mrow n .away as careiessiy as they would on old shoe. Thousands of deaths are caused every year by speed It is a mania, an obsession, which apparently holds the majority of driv ers in its grip. They drive so fast that they cannot control-the .car in case of the slightest mishap. The judgment is impared by only a small amount of alcohol, which also causes many other thousands of deaths. Another reason" for such a large Bloodshed Boxscore , la ' the licensing by authorities of mere children to drive cars. Unwise parents give young boys and girls cars, which they drive to their deaths. ;The judgment of such youngsters is not mature. They like to show off, consequently many of them are deformed or maimed for life. Poor creatures!. Just one life to live and that' snuffed out before they even had a chance to live. :i v Are yon gambling with your life by life-shortening habits T For exam ple, God's words commands us to be temperate in all things. Do you sys tematically overeat?

Nature will punish you by so many aches and pains that you will finally realize that you have paid by far too high a price for the little pleasure that you experienced, when the unneeded food was slipping past your palate and entering your over loaded stomach. j ti Saint Paul says In I Cor. 16-17-16: "Know ye not that ye are the temple of God? " If any man defile the tem ple of God, him shall God destroy." Gluttony not only causes disease and a shortened life, but often a- most ungainly and obese figure. We are Bhdrtenin&our lives by the excessive use of tobacco. The chain smoker with his stained fingers and trembling hands is poisoned not only by nicotine, but his nerves are being destroyed by acrolean, a poison that has a selective affinity for the nerves, just as alcohol has for the higher brain cells. v j t Yes,: the gamblers with their liveg are as much slaves of their habits as are the slaves in the concentration camps of Russia.
