Increase Noted
In Auto Wrecks
Reports are coming in from
all over the country that auto
mobile accidents are ONCe again
climbing to pre-war levels, re
ports David Paris, member of the
firm Thos M. Tillman Co., local
insurance agents. More taan five
and a half times as many civil
iasns were injured in traffic ac
cidents during the period of
World War 11, than were cas
ualties among members
of all branches of the Armed
Forces. Mr. Paris, states that it
is the duty of every driver to
remember the three C's of safe
driving: Courtesy, Carefullness
snd Common Sense.
Adequate insurance, while it
vron’y prevent accidents, will at
least take the financial sting out
of costly repairs and suits, taat
might otherwise wipe out the en
tire family savings. Let us all
work together, urges Mr. Pavis,
ang reduce these heartbreaking
and needless traffic accidents.

Kindergarten News J
We went on a very interesting
trip this week, for we went to |
the Banner-Herald to see how a
newspaper is printed. They sure
were busy people and we just
don’t see how they get up so
much news every day for a news
paper. Mrs. Cox showed us the
teletype working where the news
comes in, apd then we went on
downstairs and saw the men
working putting the news to
gether. Mr. Breedlove took us
down to see the great big ma
chine where the finished papers
come out. 4
We have had court jesters this
week meet our birthday queens
and kings, and they have madc us
all laugin very much. Waynian!
Scoggins was our first jester and,
we painted his face like a clown
with some co'ored chalk. He fol
lowed the king and queen around
all day doing funny antics. That
was the day Pat Shendon was
birthday queen. Bobby Hunt was
the king. Joan Waddell was
queen another day and she chose
Donald Chandler for her king.
Alice Amos’ little sister, Carolyn,
came to visit us on her bhirthday,
so we made her queen and she
chose Jerry Davis for her king.
Bobby Brooks was our second
Jester and he made us laugh, too.

We had a happy surprise |
Thursday. Jimmy Gunter, from
Miss Louise’s room, had a birth
day and his mother had a party
for him at school and invited us
to it too. Mrs. Gunter had the
plates served with ice cream,
cookies and peanuts when we got
back from lunch and when we all
walked in the tables looked so
pretty. We sang “Happy Birth
day” to Jimmy, then ate the re
{freshments.
Patricia Pittman has moved
back to Athens and has started
to our room again. We are glad to
have her come back. She came to
our school last fall, then moved
to Colbert.
Miss Williamson’s Class
Our school has adopted a little
French war orphan. His name is
Bernard Dambrine and he is
eight years old. We are going to
send him two boxes every month.
We took our club money and
went shopping for things to send
him. We spent $3.01 for postage
and all. We all went to the post
office to mail the package. We
all wrote him a letter. We sent
him an international exchange
stamp so he can write back to us.
We have his picture. He is a
cute-looking little boy. It made
us very happy to do this for him.
We have brought almost enough
in our room to fill another box.
Our class has brought 73 cans
of food to send overseas. We are
glad to share with . our friends
across the ocean.
We were so sorry to have Imo
gene and J. C. Boone move to
Whitehall Thursday. They were
our president and vice-president
of our Junior American Citizens
Club. We will miss them.
