Yet, nearly "every -day of the | year more fatal accidents occur at night than in the daytime ' This was called to our attention again just recently iqrhen the . State of Massachusetts released its 1966 accident figures. * In the hours df daylight (6:06 A.M. to 6:00 P.M.), 196 persons lost their lives iin traffic accidents. Note that these hours inJ elude both, so called, morning and evening "rush hours” when many j 'workers wend their way to and ii from work. j And yet we see that in the hours between 6:00 P.M. and 6:00 A.M. 306 persons lost their lives—111 mor^ • fatalities than occurred dpnng daylight and yet —only'TBbut ode-third as much _ traffic flow wa* on the streets and highwpyi. | To what cob » e attribute these disproportionate odds? .To but one major factor—the inability to seel ». * ' Since our human faculties and reflexes break down with the coming of darkness, we \raust look for a solution. Either we must create super-human beings, able to see as well at night as in daylight, or—we must provide the present human ndth enough light to see after darlk. Even though the "voVcies in■ Wived in these fetal crashes were I equipped witn headlights, they evidently were not enough. ' I At today’s high >. speeds we need E more than head'lights. We need sfixed illumination 2 systems on our . streets and nignways. The lues are filled with instances of drastic accident reduction—yes, and even some accident eliminatioif when modern street lighting was installed. Yet, many of our officials responsible for such measures, take a lackadaisical, yeseven an indifferent attitude' toward fixed illumination systems. Many say they are too expensive ' to install and maintain—that We > , can’t afford it The Street and Highway Safety Lighting Bureau says we can’t afford not to install • them. . And they say they havd the figures to back up this fact Wake up America! Look out of your house windows; out the ’ Windshield Of your car. Are your streets well illuminated? Could you see a child dart fsom the shadows along the curb in time to stop before you heard that terrible thud of steel against flesh? Ask yourself! It is your responsibility—the responsibility o/1 everyone reading this article. If your answer is no—or even if , your . answer is doubtful, don’t wait any longer. Write your Mayor; write your Cpngrcsrman. ’ Write, anyone who has it in his 1 . power to-help erase the shadows in which death lurks. Do it now. tomorrow may be. too late!

Unfortunately our chairs in' the diningroom were not bolted-down .so it was not a rare occurrence to ! find us untanging ourselves on the deck afer a vioent roll, icovered wrpK the contents of the menu. ^However, once we sailed past the Pillars of Hercules into the Diue Mediterranean : our tribulations were over. Arriving in Atht ens, Greece, I immediately climbed the steep roadway to the Acropolis, gleaming in the. moonlight far above the city. The beauty of these white marble temples is breathtaking in such a soft light with .the city aflame below. I met a friend from New York on the front steps of the Parthenon and we . spent several days looking over the ruins here and the recently excavated Agona be,low. At the entrance' to the Acropolis is a great rock from which Paul preached his famous sermon to the Athenians on the Unknown God. ■ - After a short stop at Saloniba, Greece where I visited friends from the States, we sailed for Istanbul. or Constantinople ofgrfje Crusades/ The magnificant mosques here with their great gilded domes and minarets are truly tales tfrom the Arabian Nights. The inside of these mighty domes are fantastically decorated with gold Arabian script; passages from the Koran. Soft Persian pigs cover the floors. No furniture is used by the worshippers, who sit crosslegged and shoeless. I noted that their religion is quite democratic) as the laborers from the docks Walk into the most magnificant mosque to pray, stopping first to wash at the fountan as prescribed by the Korkin. * The great new Istanbul Hotel jh Istanbul is a marvel in itself and a crossroad for Americans in the.East.

His record number of bits was 'remarkable that no , shooter has dared attempt it sincei J * * This month shooters everywhere will mark, the fiftieth anniversary of the greatest feat of marksmanship in shootfng history —> a record so imposing that no other rifleman has even attempted to equal it. The extraordinary feat of precision and stamina that has defied so much as a challenge was performed on the San Antonio, Texas, fair grounds by Adolph. Toppervvein, exhibition shooter for Winchester. Ad, as he is called, fired away with a 22 rifle at wooden cubes the size of alphabet blocks thrown into the air by a team of strong-armed youths. Over a ten-day period, he shot at a total of 72,500 of the tiny, flying blocks — and missed a total of only nine times. 1 Today, witn results oi snooung matches hidden in obscure specialized publications and Olympic shooting hardly noticed, itniay\ seem strange that anyone Should - attempt such a record. But in the ‘•fast draw” da>'3, wjien Buffalo Bill and Annie Oakley were still touring the country and drawing crowds by the thousands, a great national interest existed in marksmen and they gained worldwide prestige. Significantly, in the era of the leaden “home run” kings, Americans were reknowned for their marksmanship a reputation long since lost Before the'tum of the century, Adam H. Bogardiis, an Illinois market hunter, seP-q. record with a shotgun by breaking 5,000 glass balls thrown into the air in 480 minutes and 45 seconds — an . accomplishment of no small note even in a nation • of shooters. Shortly after, this record was eclipsed when William Frank Carver smashed 5,500 balls in ,420 minutes — using a rifle! Carver quickly became a celeh:'y and was presented with On his 88th birthday, recently, Winchester presented Adffopperwein with k, model 88 rifle and a model 50 shotgun in honor of the 50th ‘anniversary of his- historic shooting feat. gold', silver and jeweled medallions, and feted by world-wide nobility. He later improved his own record by missing only 650 of 60,000 thrown targets. Just as today’s youngsters/ might worship a Mickey Mantle,' Ad Toppcnvein’s boyhood hero> had been.Carver.

The record he was gunning for had stood against almost continuous assault by the finest shooters in the.world. To break it he would have to shoot continuously ft>r at least a full week from, dawn till disk. ' ^ "His second miss came well into the third day, after an al-~ 'most incredible run of 14,540 hits. By the fifth day, however, the strain was beginning to tell. His 1 eyes were1 red and sunken and . there was a stubbie of dark beard • •on bis face. At night* after the i seventh day .he was so fatigued and lame that Plinky (bis wife) had to undress him. He was un-; able to lower his arms below the • waist and hie/' shoulders were , swollen.

Kews For Veterans ; * Tile President’s mild stroke serves to emphasize the importance. of a major research project just getting under way at 14 Veterans * Administration Hospitals. The , work is to test whether long term treatment with anti-bloodclotting medications or special diets canprevent recurrence of heart condi• tions and strokes, and to evaluate such treatment for reducing crippling effects and the number of . deaths. About 5 years will be required to complete the research. In one study anticoagulant drugs Will be given to about 300 patients whd have had the type of heut attack called coronary thrombosis, in which blood clots develop iii the heart arteries. In another sttidy, anticoagulants will be given to about the sany number pf patients? who have had strokes, or blood clots in the brain vessels. A third study will be on special diets! for , patients with the type of hardening of tly arteries called atherosclerosis, in which fat derived materials are deposited in the walls of the . arteries, ’ The diets tlo be used arc a formua containing vegetable oils thought to reduce the amount of fatty substance in the body, called cholesterol, and foods low in fats of any kind. * Patients in the studies will re* ceive the benefit of all standard treatment for their conditions, in Addition to the special treatment being evaluated during the entire 5 year period. Professors* of medicine in two large universities, who are also VA consultants, will act as chairmen of two'of the studies, while the VA’s chief of neurology will head up , the research on strokes. • Edward M, Mathews, of the Front Royal Office of the Division l of War Veterans’ Claims, is in Washington at the Clerk’s Office on 1st and 3rd Monday from 2 to 4 p.m. and will gladly give more details on this subject or any other matter connected with veteran’s affairs.

It was worth In excess of 150,000. I picked up a corner of it and turaed it over and looked on the other side. The threads .were running crarlly in every direction. There was no order, beauty or design. Then I flipped it over again and there on 'that side was this beautiful design woven by the hands of a master craftsman. God’s hand is Uke that.

As he stood that .day on the bridge he recognised that he was a total failure. Vow the question—what should be do? 8honld he juipp? It was a way out! But maybe he could find another way. He walked by a mission on the back side of town. Perhaps this thing called “religion” would help. So he entered into the outward form of worship. When the ottering plate was passed, he dropped the last 12-00 he had tat the* plate. Eagerly he waited to aee what would, happen. Nothing happened. An soon aa the service was over, he returned to hia apartment. The experiment in religion had failed. But suddenly it dawned on him that if God had the answer for his life and hia problems, he. couldn’t buy that answer for two dollars or two''million dollars. But if he would only believe and have faith. God would give It to him.

It is being marketed under the name Oibrel by Merck * Co.. Rahway, N. X. in the potassium salt form of gibbereilic acid to formulator-distributors on a nationwide basis. It is expected that formulators' products incorporating the dramatic new compound will be available to the public in the Spring. Baked on experiments by scientists' and collaborating researchers throughout the country, Oibrel, which is not a fertiliser. greatly improves the growth traits of several ornamental plants. African violets tend to grow more erect and produce a more pointed, attractive leaf. Geraniums, when sprayed young, grow more ra• pidly. The product also initiates growth in holly when the plant is dormant, speeds the growth of lade plants, sedum and peperomia,. and aids in formation o* side shoots in ivy. Only very ' small amounts are required to ( produce its effects. Further research is necessary ' before its use on food crops can be recommended.
