duty over the week-end to patrol what la expected to be the heavleat Fourth of July traffic on record.

Meanwhile, motoriata were cau-tioned by Commiaaioner Donald S. Leonard to drive with care and avoid marring their holiday with tragedy.

"A year ago 23 peraona loat their Uvea on Michigan highwaya over the Fourth of July week-end", Leonard aald. "Another 500 were injured and there were between 1,500 and 2,000 accldenta.

"This total la needlesa and hbr-rible. Most of the accidents were due to careleaaneas, negligence and recklessnesa. Why spoil a perfectly good holiday Just for the sake of taking a chance?

"Because of heavier traffic, has-ards are greater and the driver ahould be doubly vigilant And it's Just as eaay to drive safely aa dan-gerously.'

Leonard advijed motorists to get an early start on their trips so as to reach their deatlnation in time without speeding.

"Drive with the pattern and flow of thg traffic", he said. "Observe the rules of the road and remember to be on the alert for the unexpect-ed thing the other driver may do.

"Take it easy over the week-end so that you will be around on Tuesday."

YOU SAY IT \

If a word or expression is so widely used, that was once consider-ed taboo, does it become acceptable and proper, through popular usage? Outstanding English teachers have approved changes of being more liberal with t h i language.

In cases where it sounds awkward or changes the meaning, to Inaert a preposition in the body of a tence it Is proper to end the tence with i t You can even split infinitives, under certain circum-stances. Use 'anybody else's, OK, can instead of may, 'whose' in place

(of 'of which*. Add jitters, jive, juke, | strip teaae, rain check, diac jockey, | double talk, cold shoulder, to your .corrected l i s t I The main thing Is to make thoughts clear and judge the sort of grammar f i t t ing to your audi-ence. We've been making errors In grammar for years and now we've lived long enough to see some 01 our mistakes are now accepted by English savanta. Goody!

WITHIN THE MAN

An alcoholic was condemned as a person of weak will, a loss to so-ciety. Through research certain aapecta point to other reaaons for excessive drinking. We cannot ex-cuae all alcoholics but in aome cases there may be a physical condition exiating before the victim started drinking, that, due to the failure of the body to utilise certain food ele-ments, it leads to a craving for al-cohol.

If scientists are successful the re-sult In ways to cure alcoholism and of preventing it by adding certain critical foods to the d ie t I t has not been proven that alcoholism is inherited though it has been used as an excuse in numerous caaes.

The increased amount of drinking in the United States, la reason enough for laboratories to get busy and see what can be done, but we don't need a college degree in science to know that most drinkers t ry to be "social," perhaps many to escape from realities, others to drown sorrows.

Whether the cure lies within one-self or is relieved through research by sclentista, the man who does not t ry to overcome and treat his ex-cessive drinking, Is like the man who permits his neighbor to do his good works, who allows society to carry his obligations, who falls to exercise hla vote, who slta by while his family prays for his soul.

HIGHER AND HIGHER

Taxas higher today than ever bo-fore, are yet to he higher next year. Next year they will reach $63 billion and tha t Is cae-fourth of our na-tional income. Every H out of each 14, goes to meet federal, s tate and local services. Why a re ^ixes ao high and going higher? F o r one thing, we demand more sen-ices f rom government and receive more,

The Hoover report fo r reforms in the executive branch of govern-ment, dealing with waste, duplica-tion, inefficiency, over-lapping of bureaus and so on, If corrected ef-fectively and rationally, would save tax money and not hinder but help the administration of government We have good men In good dlpart-menta, but hi t and miss budgeting, poor buying practices, won't help good men to rfiaintaln good depart-ments.

The U. S. needs millions of dollars for operating expense, to pay mil-lions of people employed by the gov-e rnmen t If the people who muat pay these millions of dollars can

.ve money by being governed effeclently and less costly,

through reforms, we the would appreciate the eonstdenUon!

Too Many Drownings Bring Timely Warning from MDH

Thirteen drownings In Michigan watera In one abort week-end brought a timely warning from the Michigan Department of Health.

"The people who drowned were Just ordinary folka—a child wading In a river, another who atumbled into a deep channel, a couple whose boat capsized, a lad who dived Into a shallow creek, a woman who fell out of a boat." the Department said.

"Observing the ordinary swim-ming and boating precautions may aave your life or the life of your child," it added.

Swim only at a safe, guarded beach, during daylight hours. Never awim alone or after dark.

Do not swim In unfamiliar or

swift waters, nor dive Into water of unknown depth. Do not rush or dive headlong In cold water.

Walt two hours after meals be-fore you swim and then do not swim until exhausted or chilled. If you must race, race toward shore.

Swimming, diving or boating, don't show off, and above all, "no horse play!"

Be sure the person who takes your boat can handle it. Do not overload the boat, and do not rock It. Remain seated aboard amall boats.

If you cannot swim, wear a life-jacket or take a life preserver or old Inner tube along with you.

Carry oars In motor boats. Do not fill the engine while smoking.

jriH^^OWfU^Liy3QER^LOWlLL^i^WJJOAN^n^JMD^^UI|lf 194f

Carry an extra shear pin for the propeller, H

Stay aahore or put for shore when a atorm threatens. Avoid the awell of larger boats. Stay out of awlft currenta.

Last year, 289 people drowned in Michigan watera. Sixty-five per-cent of the drownings occurred during the summer months. Six out of seven of those who drowned wera men and boys.

Two thirds of the men and boya who drowned were under 80 yeara of age with the greater number in the IB to 80 age group.

Two thirds of the women and girls who drowned were under IB years of age.

Lakes took the lives of 77 per-sons; rivers, 7B persons; boating accidents, 76 peraona, and quarrlea and miacellaneoua places, 62 per-sons.

TGngWby Ompanu A Want Ad makes the buyer and seller both happy CARD OF THANKS

I wlah to thank my many frienda who sent me cards and flowers during my Illness in the hospital. They were greatly appreciatsfd. p9 Mrs. Clare Ford.

Clifford Dalstra, IB, son of Mr. and Mrs. Seymour Dalstra, a grad-uate of Lowell high school, and who last winter took a short course In general farm practices at M. S. C., is now learning a lot more about agriculture by way of prac-tical experience since his school days are over. He was born on a farm and likes farming.

Clifford lives with his parents at their 30-acre farm home located on Snow Avenue on the Cascade side of the townllne. The Dalstras work three other farms making a large acreage. They keep a large herd of grade cattle on their own place and pasture and raise the feed on the adjoining farms. They also raise a large number of hogs but |R> poul-try. ""

Mrs. Dalstra is a daughter of

Arthur Oreen, who lives west of Lowell and has always lived around this part of the county. Mr. Dal-stra is also a lifelong resident of this community.

Farming is their ofiosen prefes-slon and that they are very success-ful Is apparent from the kind of work they are doing and the type of farm equipment they use to keep their agriculture business in hand.

At this time haying is being done and the wheat harvest Is closely fol-lowing. To complete the "team-work" so essential on a well-regu-lated farm, Mrs. Dalstra gets her suntan driving for the men as they load the hay.

Thn Dalstras also have a daugh-ter who is Mrs. Oscar Chapln, liv-ing at Clare, Mich.
