Dog. gone it why can't people ark right Whether you realise It or not we do have traffic problem here on Suturday. Sooner or later some one or someone young-Hter la going to get hurt.

It could be avoided hy more cure In parking our cam. The double parking la bad. With the lights of the streets and stores on, the street la a reflection of every moving thlrj. Couple tlmt with the oncoming headlights of cam that forget to dim and I defy you to nee people walking until you are right on them. Take your tape measure out there.

Meuaure from the rear bimiHr of enra on each side of the street and then add the width of two cars double juirked and again I defy you to get truffle moving aufely. And Just because It hus been going on for yenrs before I got here Is no sign that It Is right. Anybody agree? Im one of these poor mls-gulded folks that believes un ounce of prevention Is worth pound of cure. I saw a man die once bemuse of the lock of enough foresight to put up tnilllc light. NccdlcHH to suy thnt after he hud died they put one up.

Pretty high price to pny I think. We do not need tnilllc light but we do ncei a little more thought-fulncsH among ourselves to cure the condition, blither thoughtfulness nr proper enforcement. tit We were down right surprised the other night, when (IW uiiHwered a noise on the front pnrrh. to And a neigh bur youngster there with a May Imsket. To lie perfectly honest we had forgotten It.

It bus never liecn ritual with us to make und puns around the traditional basket in honor of the May Time. It wuh very nice to he among those remembered. In the bottom of our very pretty Imsket was note from (lull Smock. Then a few moments inter we were presented with Imsket from onr close neigh hors the Smiths. Art Smith, one of my bull playin' friends delivered It.

Thanks very much. I am not one of "Mac Arthurs Hoys." I soldiered under a guy by the nnme of Ilcukler or lleiitler or Hutlcr or something like that. Ilut now that the ticker tape him been swept lip after the triumphal homecoming of our hero I see that the politic-hum ure lieglnnlng to sling a little mud. My humble opinion Is that a mnn who hns given so much to his country. and a limn who haa spent so much time In the study of the orient and its' problems should bo given a fair chnnre to present his views to the public und not behind the elo cd doom of a senate hearing.

Those eloseil doors always lead me In lielleve that soma one Is afraid of wluit someone else might say. Who file heck Is supposed to know what goes on.
