Play It Safe —
Use Seat Belts
Traffic accidents are respon
sible for 50,000 deaths a year.
This great toll makes it imper
ative that everyone be traffic
safety-conscious.
The wise motorist knows that
the seat belt represents the best
available equipment in reducing
critical or fatal injuries, accord
ing to the American Insurance
Association.
All occupants of a vehicle sh
ould wear seat belts—at all ti
mes. It is a fact that over half
of the accidents causing injury
or death occur at speeds less
than 40 miles per hour, and that
three out of four traffic deaths
occur within 25 miles of home.
It has been estimated that if
all motorists used seat belts,
more than 5,000 lives would be
saved each year and injuries re
duced by one-third, the Associa
tion said.
Where appearance counts, ar
chitects specify boards for shelv
ing because boards don’t require
additional edge treatment.

Jehovah’s Witnesses
Assembly Held At
Sandy Springs HS
A large delegation from the
Covington congregation of Jeho
vah’s Witnesses was among the
894 who attended the circuit con
vention held at the Sandy Springs
High School Auditorium over the
past weekend. The assembly was
a great success and the high
point came Sunday when this
large crowd heard the main dis
course, “Will God Intervene in
Man’s Affairs?,” delivered by
Joseph Saia, District Supervisor
from the world headquarters in
Brooklyn, New York.
Mr. Saia told his audience
that many have come to the con
clusion that God has abandoned
mankind, that he is not inte
rested in man and his affairs,
but man and his affairs are of
great interest to God. History
shows that God has intervened in
men’s affairs and the world sit
uation today requires God’s inter
vention again. God’s interest is
like the interest of a loving fat
her seeking the welfare of his
family.
John E. Baugher, presiding
minister for the Covington con
gregation said, “We know the
convention has been valuable to
us as ministers, but also it will
be of spiritual value to every
one in our vicinity in that the
many points we learned will help
Post Pedestal
Show off a small sculpture or
a treasured figurine by setting
it on a wall-mounted pedestal.
A handsome pedestal can be
made of a short piece of rough,
4x4-inch fence post.
Beam Separator
Separate a dining ell from the
living room by making a “door
way” between. A 4xlo-inch
beam set against the ceiling and
supported on 4x4 posts on either
side will do the trick neatly.
