FACTS
FO OMVEM
What is a traffic lane?
A traffic lane is a marked or imag
inary division of the surface of a
street or highway wide enough for
a single line of vehicles. The law
governing use of traffic lanes applies
to, the unmarked, or imaginary lanes,
just as it does to marked lanes.
Docs the law compel me to drive in
the right hand lane?
The law states that you must nor
mally use the right hand lane, re
maining as close to the edge or curb
as possible, except where the road is
under construction or when you are
passing another vehicle. You must
drive within a single lane where
lanes are marked, and must not leave
the lane until you are sure you can
do so safely. On a three-lane high
way, you should use the center lane
for passing only.
AN APPRECIATION
Our sincere thanks and apprecia
tion are extended to the many kind
friends who remembered us with
flowers and words of cheer at the
time of Mr. Jones' illness.
Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Jones.

Seven Resolutions
Cited for Motorists
Taking advantage of the open sea
son on New Year's resolutions, Sec
retary of State Earl Snell this week
listed the following seven pledges
which, if observed by motorists,
would in his opinion go farthest in .
cutting this state's traffic toll.
"I, holder of an Oregon driver's
license, hereby resolve:
"First, never to insist upon the
right-of-way when to do so might
cause an accident.
"Second, to use my horn as a
warning device and not as a public
address system.
"Third, to keep my car in tip-top
mechanical condition at all times.
"Fourth, never to drive my car at
a speed greater than would permit
me to bring it to a stop within the
distance I KNOW to be clear and
unobstructed whether by day or
night.
"Fifth, to know the traffic law
and to give 100 per cent cooperation
to traffic officers.
"Sixth, to treat everyone I meet
on the road, whether pedestrian or
motorist, with utmost courtesy and
consideration.
"Seventh, to keep my mind on my
driving."
Mr. and Mrs. John Kilkenny, Jr.,
were Christmas visitors here from
their home at Pendleton.
