USE GAZETTE TIMES CLASSIFIED ADS 'tyWIfctVl'OW' Pleasure time is no time for accidents and sudden death, but unfor tunately that is when the grim specter works overtime. , On the average week-end about 290 persons are killed and more than 13,600 injured. In a year's time, week-end and holiday casualties climb to the numbing total of 15,000 dead, 750,000 injured, or about 41 percent of all lives lost annually in traffic accidents. . With a week-end or holiday coming up, families and vacation parties swarm the roads to places of recreation, traffic is congested, driving strain increased and then the fatal count begins. , Millions of good, bad and indifferent drivers speeding, cutting in, weav ing, ignoring the rules of courtesy, challenging traffic controls, provide the lethal ingredients for crashing and killing. Add to this the potion of the drinking driver and the mixture is deadly. When you plan week-end driving be doubly cautious. Try to avoid peak hours of travel and congested routes. Start early, return before or after the rush. Watch your driving, keep your temper, don't contest the right-of-way and watch the other driver! Slow down take a little longer and bring your family home alive. SLOW DOWN-LIVES ARE IN YOUR HANDS! The Gazette Times REAL ESTATE HEPPNER PHONE 6-96S2 Mill Mill BONDS INSURANCE
