Over 750,000 were injured in the hours from dusk to dawn. Last year these casualties went still higher. Night accidents are one of the greatest factors in the increasing highway death toll. Fatigue, poor illumination, headlight glare, faulty vision, and the great er number of dangerous drinking drivers at night are the major causes of this tragic nocturnal record. Another big factor in both night and day-time fatalities is "highway hyp nosis." On long drives over smooth, unending roads the steady hypnotic monotony of humming wheels lulls drivers into a dangerous mental blank.- Alertness gone, reactions at a low ebb, the worst can happen and does. What do YOU do when you become drowsy while driving? Safe drivers, recognizing the danger signal, pull off the road and relax. Per haps they stop for a cup of coffee and stretch their legs, or let someone else take the wheel. They know, as every good driver knows, that safety demands alert driv ing, particularly at night when the killing rate per vehicle is as much as four times greater in proportion to traffic volume than it is in the daytime. When you are driving in a fog of fatigue pull over! Wake up, or die!

Suit Yourself at Joe Richards WmJ I By MYRTLE BURR Although "M u s 1 e hath charms to sooth the savage beast" and to lend a quieting influence to today's madden ing tensions, it's been found that the greatest benefits are gotten from music when we make it ourselves. Just lis tening to music is a passiva aetion. And you'll notice in so-doing that the mind and the mood are not always completely absorbed in the mood of the music. But when you're actually playing the music yourself, you're completely engrossed in making it say what you want to express. It's the act of creating the music that makes it an effective outlet for frustrations and emo tions. When you're concen trating on how to play cer tain notes for certain effects, you're certainly not thinking about bills to be paid, or ap pointments to keep. You're relaxed. And at the same time, you're enjoying a cre ative outlet. So remember, music is not just for the youngsters. It's FOR EVERYBODY. And it 1 never too late to start learn ing to play your favorite in strument. Just want to remind you that we can supply your fav orite instrument. . . no mat ter what it is.
