To The Good Drivers
By EARL WHITLOCK
Much has been written and
apoken against the reckless mo-
; torist. He is the
I curse of the
highway and
constant menace
to all citizens,
sjBut one so sel
dom sees any
thing con cern-
lng those many
anvers wno are
NOT reckless,
that perhaps
word of appre
ciation should be sent in their
direction.
You can note them every day,
if you will, driving about their
business sanely and sensibly.
They are not out to break any
records going from here to
there and back again. They
may put the throttle clear to the
floor in case of need but only
when traffic conditions warrant
it. Most always they're slightly
under rather than above the
prescribed speed limits. They
stop actually stop at stop
signs. They graciously give
right of way to pedestrians.
They are wary of school chil
dren. They are doubly careful
on treacherous winter pave
ments. They signal adequately
and then do what their signal
said they were going to do.
They are willing to share the
road a bit better than S0-S0
with other motorists.
They are really the majority
01 automobile users, kindly and
considerate.
We should like to take this
chance, while on the subject, to
wank them for their unfailing
courtesy to Funeral corteges
which pass through the streets
under our direction. Often, we
know, such processions mean
traffic delays and inconvenience
U them. We Just want them to
know that we appreciate their
nvarying thoughtfulness.

Next Monday Mr. Whltlock
of the Earl Whitlock Funeral
some will comment on Serve

'Mail Early" Stressed As
Emergency Traffic Cited
"Mail Christmas parcels early'
is the slogan of the United States
postal department, especially
with the national situation as it
is today and rail facilities need
ed throughout the nation, accord
ing to an announcement made
by Postmaster Burt E. Hawkins.
The postomce department
contemplates that all Christmas
mail shall be delivered by mid
night, Wednesday, December 24.
The public is urged to cooperate
with the postoffice employes by
mailing early so that arrange
ments can be made to handle
all gift parcels received for de
livery prior to Christmas day.
Do not open until Christ
mas stickers may be used on
parcels.
While star routes will operate
as scheduled and mail to and
from such routes will be handled
as on other days, there will be
no city delivery, (except special
delivery letters and parcels),
rural delivery or window serv
ice in postoffices on Christmas
day.
The following announcement
is from the postmasters of Klam
ath county:
The postoffices of Klamath
county are equipped better than
ever this year to handle the
Christmas mail, and there should
be no delays if you follow these
suggestions.

Christmas day. Every effort
should be directed toward hav

Christmas." Parcels caught in
the last-minute jam may not be
delivered until after Christmas.
Pack, wrap and tie your par
cels properly. Place plenty of
shock - absorbing material such
as excelsior, crushed paper, etc.,
between and around articles to
insure against breakage and

paper, not tissue paper, as an out
side wrapper. Tie parcel with
strong string. The size limit for
packages is 100 inches in leneth
and girth combined. The weight
limit is 7U pounds.
Address your mail carefully,
so that there is no possibility of

Doors of the historic Naval
academy at Annapolis are not
closed to the navy's enlisted sea
men. One door that will swing
many times next year is that
labeled "Naval Academy Pre
paratory School."
The prep school is situated at
the naval training station in Nor
folk, Va., where it was founded
in 1919 to prepare appointees of
the secretary of the navy to the
Naval academy.
Students in last year's classes
who wrote the Annapolis entry
examination came through with
flying colors, for 96 per cent of
them passed, according to the

INJURIES REDUCED
IN SCHOOL FOOTBALL
By PAUL F. EWING
PORTLAND, Dec. 0 (Wide
World) They're reducing injur
ies to high school foottxil! play
ers in Portland.
They the school board, Mult
nomah County Medical society
and a firm of Insurance bro
kers say they have a system
unique in the United States to
halt the economic wusto of fu
ture citizens and point to statis
tics to prove it.
Three years ago, 700 Portland
boys turned out for footbnll and
312 were injured. That was the
system's first year. The next
year 754 boys competed and 198
were injured. Last season B32
turned out and 13S were In
jured.
Most schools merely provide
insurance to take care of the kids
after they get their spots
knocked off in the playing field.
Portland physicians weren't sat
isfied. The medical society suggested
that boys be given before-and-
after game examinations, but
wanted it arranged so the doc
tors would be paid for it. They
also wanted doctors in attend
ance at all athletic contests.
Board Ponders
The school board pondered,
approved and called in M. S
Bradley, its insurance broker, to
see what could be done
The sesult: All athletes In
Portland public schools 3300
strong are required to carry In
surance, placed by Bradley with
commercial insurance compan
ies. For football, each player
lays $3 on the line for the sea
son. All minor sports cost SI.
The Insurance covers medical
expenses, hospitalization, dentis
try and miscellany, to a total of
$300 for any one injury. If the
bill is more than $300 and It
has been only once technically
the student is supposed to foot it.
Actually the sponsoring agencies
take care of it.
In three years. 13,000 boys
have been handled without a
single total disability.
The system provides pay for
doctors, nurses and hospitals at
the scale set up by the state In
dustrial accident commission.
The athletes are given free
choice of doctors.
Knee and ankle injuries are
most frequent In football, parti
cularly "trick knees." The first
year the system was used, 15
boys had to have semilunar car
tilage removals. Last year there
were none.
This, the sponsors say, Is be
cause a boy who suffers a knee
injury serious enough to keep
