MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 21. 193S PAGE THREE NOTICE It ta neceu&ry that all club, or ganization and society notice be brought or phoned into this of fice by Friday noon tf they are to appear In Sunday' society PMe. Notices which do not reach this office by Friday noon cannot be Drtntd Sunday. Society and Clubs . i By Clara Mary Davis j Ooupla Collect Twin CLEVELAND, OHIO. (UP) Phelps Meeker and his wlf. spend their leisure hours collecting and caring for( leaves and tree twigs. They have 60 'of Ohio's 100 species of tree leans, and believe they know more abou ttrees than anyone . else tn northern Ohio. Hospitals make such k STUFFY grandstands ONE THING about those ancient Romans . . . the Messrs. Nero and Caligula, for instance . . . was that they held their real rough-housing inside their stadiums. When they turned loose the animals they did it where everybody could see. The crowds went home thankful they didn't iiave to bite a lion. When the football season opens and that's what makes ancient Rome timely just now we moderns seem to get in our worst licks on the way to the stadiums. This isn't due so much to heavy traffic as to a few drivers who would be tak ing smaller chances biting lions. Of almost every accident in football or any other traffic it can be said that it happened because there wasn't time to avoid it. Nobody has an acci dent on purpose. But few, in deed, are the accidents which telegraph that they're coming. A split-second usually tells the ory. t Because the time element is such a great safety factor, we'd i like to offer a slogan for this football season: "Start 10 min utes earlier and avoid that hospital detour." Ten minutes is enough to absorb a great many of those dangerous split seconds. In football traffic it's what the early bird doesn't catch that counts.
