CHRISTMAS ALBUM
COLORFUL STORY
Save that Christmas wrappine
paper this year! When the pack
ages are opened, the children have
settled down to playing with their
new toys, and dinner is in the oven,
carefully collect the paper, fold it
and tuck it away.
Next week, when the snapshots
you took on Christmas day are de
veloped, you’ll find a clever and
imaginative use for the gift wrap
according to the Picture and Frame
Institute.
Recording Christmas on film is
a long standing custom in many
families. When friends and rela
tives gather for gift opening and
a big dinner, the camera catches
all the warmth and fun of the day.
But, too often, the photos are
dropped in a drawer and forgotten
until relatives return on another
occasion.

A SIX-lEAK COMPARISON
vs the nation's day and night
highway deaths, including esti
mated 1967 figures, shows extra
danger of dark hours.
Slightly more than one-half
of all traffic fatilities occur at
night. However, the fatality
rate at night is far greater in
view of decreased traffic vol
ume. In 1966 the nighttime rate
was 10.1 deaths per l(>0 million
vehicle miles, compart tu 3.8
in daytime.
