Superintendent Herbert Evans presided during the afternoon and was later made temporary chair man looking toward the perfecting of a community council. Mrs. Cramer explained that the or ganizations which she represented were endeavoring to Interest parents, particularly. In a community pro gram which had for-its purpose, a greater effort to' keep down delin quency and crime among children and to raise the standard -of child hood. For adults, the program aska for a moro profitable use of one's spare time. To reach these ends, she suggested various modes of procedure such as the forming of clubs, etc. As far as the work for children was concerned, she expressed her approval of tho summer playground project which is a community affair and pro jected by a similar council to which she had previously referred. Mrs. Cramer called attention to the chonglng conditions In the home, Smaller families have made it neces sary, generally, for the child to look for Its pleasure and company outside the family. The mother, she stated, with less to do in the way of house hold duties, has more time for'leis ure, which is often spent away from the home and family. For these rea sons, the efforts which she repre sented, were being made.

(Special) Ad dltlonal safety and driving ease and an apparent two-foot widening of all main-traveled highways at a cost of $36 a mile will result 'from comple tion of the centerMlne highway mark ing project long advocated by the Oregon State Motor association and carried through this year as a port of the state -highway program. It was an nounced today by J.' A. Crittenden, director of-the association In charge of highway traffic.- A yellow center lino; painted by a battery of ' three marking machines, will be placed on all Important road ways. Crittenden said. Wear-resisting point has been purchased and the marking project will be completed as soon as weather permits.: An exact' cost' analysis shows that this additional driving safety and convenience will be granted Oregon motorists and visitors to the state at a cost of .0023 cents per foot. It has been demonstrated by a close check on state-police-accident reports that center-line marking reduces accidents on highways at night by 75 per cent. ! Yellow-paint 1b used because It ls most visible under all lighting condi tions, Mr.- Crittenden declared. It is equally distinguishable in sunlight, darkness and fog, and' actually gives a, two-foot wider; highway clearance by keeping motorists within their lanes of safety, traffic engineers de blared. The motor association was largely responsible for - tho purchase of the first center-line- marking maohlne three years ago. Since that time two additional machines have been added. , "We think center line marking Is the most efficient method of spend ing, dollars for- highway safety," said Mr. Crittenden.' "The.1 center lino sorts traffic and Indicates the Jane of safety for-each, driver: It odds two feet, in effect, to the width of the Highway ' RETURN FROM WEST OREGON Sheriff and Mrs. Jesse Brosheors have returned from Portland where they attended the funeral of Mrs. Fannie Madden which, was held there Monday morning.
