YOUTH AND BEAUTY
WASHINOTON. D. 0., Nov. 30. In
the interest of public safety, the
American Automobile AMocl&tlon haa
rerommended that nil of It 800 af
filiated motor club and state Associa
tions thtrmighmit the United close It
membership roll to motorists oon
Tlcted of serious violations of driving
rules.
The policy of the nation. motoring
body was contained In a resolution
sdopted last week at the A. A. A. na
tional convention In Chicago. The
resolution reads as follows:
"State associations and A. A. A.
clubs are urged to give serious con- i
ldcmtlon to the adoption of a policy
whereby memberehip In their organi
sation would be closed to persons
whose licenses have been revoked, to
persons convicted of drunken drlv
lng. leaving the scene of accident,
and to those guilty of other major
violations having direct and Import
ant relationship to public surety,
"Action by local affiliated clubs
will be necessary before the policy
becomes binding." said The, p. Henry
of Detroit. Mich., president of the
A. A. A. "I believe, however, that It
will be Indorsed by the great majority
of our clubs and etat associations,
Our membership Is on the whole
composed of the more responsible
and civic minded type of car owner
and I hove no doubt that they wtll
welcome any move to separate the
A. A. A. emblem entirely from reck
lessness In car operation In any man
ner, shape or form."
Other features of the A. A. A. safety
program to be launched on the basis
of convention action include:
1. Safety work of a continuing na
ture as against temporary drives and
campaigns.
8. Strict, vigorous and Insistent en
forcement; elimination of ticket fix
lng: .simplification of court proced
ure; Increase In highway patrol and
other enforcement personnel: Increas
ed use of suspension and revocation
of drivers' licenses.
3. Staunch support of school saf
ty patrol; Increased emphasis on the
safety education of children; traffic
and driving training for high schools,
normal schools and teachers' colleges,
and systematic education of- adult
motorists and pedestrians.
4. continued aggTeaalve effort for
adoption of A. A. A. safcty-repon
Ihlllty law; effective state drivers'
license law and other uniform safety
regulation throughout all the states.
S. Application of sound engineering
to highway deelgn and traffic con
rot; such as. widening of highways,
eliminating of grade crossings, separ
ations of highway grades, use of ped
estrian Islands and construction of
divided highways, elevated highways
and highway sidewalks where warranted.

Puppets ere coming to town a
traveling puppet allow Just like those
which knights and their Indies
watched In castle courtyards in the
mlddls ages I This rare and amusing
spectacle will be here December '
to give a number of performances.
It la the first show of this kind
ever to travel Pacific coast hleh-
ways by motor truck In modern
times and revives for today's audi
ences the oldest known form of
theatrical entertainment.
Fred Johnaon, local manager for
Shell Oil company, announces that
all performances of the puppets will
be froe, part of Shell's Christmas
carnival which has becomo one of
the west's big annual holiday events.
He will give full details later as to
where and when this novel attrac-
lon will be on view. Everyone la
cordially Invited to be present and
enjoy an event the like of which I
they may never be able to see again.
Because of the historical and edu
cational i background, special per
formances for schools are being ar
ranged. In viewing Shell's Christmas pup
pets, local residents will be turn
ing the pages of history backward
for hundreds and even thousands of
years. Puppets have been found In
tombs and rillns built long before
the Christmas era.
It was In the middle ages, the
daya of chivalry when knights were
bold, that puppets reached their
greatest popularity. Shows wsndered
tho highways of Europe, playing In
market places.
Shell Is the first organization In
the west to send a troupe of pup
pets on an extensive tour giving
free performances, and extraordinary
Interest has been aroused according
to Johnson.,

DON'T BE A STATISTIC
Don't be Just a fool number.
When the totals of this year's auto
mobile injuries and deaths are added
up next January 1, don't be one of
some 36,000 killed and a million injured
by automobiles.
Smart people look figures in the face
nd try to learn how to avoid becoming
one.
Others not so smart Ignore figures
and yield to Nature's soothing illusion
that nothing can happen to THEM.
Nature kids us all with a false sense of
security. Nature doesn't care what
happens to us as individuals. But
WE DO.
If we read that nearly 16,000 persons
were killed or injured walking on
country roads in 1934, we can be surer
of staying out of that class by walking
on the left side when we walk on
country roads, facing traffic
If we read that there are more than
three times as many accidents during :
the evening rush hours as there are
during the morning rush hours, we can
drive more than THREE TIMES AS
CAREFULLY in the evening as we do
in the morning.
Smart people use last year's statistics
as a guide to this year's conduct. What
do you learn from the following:
Number of accidents: from exceeding
speed limit, 123,980; driving on wron,
side of road. 92,570; driving off road
way, 60,590; reckless driving, 53,290;
pedestrians crossing between inter- .
sections, 72,070; coming from behind -parked
car, 36,060; crossing against a
signal, 32,960?
By watching statistics gathered by
such authorities as The Travelers In
surance Company, we can improve on
Nature and stay out of trouble spot
and avoid dangerous driving and walk
ing habits.
