Pertinently the Miami Herald speaks of “electoral transcriptions.” instead of electrical transcriptions. The Spanish are innately a dramatic people, but their drama right now is so in- tense it has become a tragedy. “Be not too hasty to outbid another” is an ancient proverb, but it seems that a lot of bridge players haven’t heard of it. Every man and woman should find time to maintain physical fitness; in other words, take some enjoyable form of out- door exercise, Tersonality-increases with independ- ence, freedom, ard spontaneity. ‘he fel- low with a wad of dough in his jeans exudes more personality than the penni- less chap who doesn’t know where his next meal is coming from, In 1912 the democrats were insisting on states’ rights of Republican Roosevelt and now in 1986 the republicans are de- mianding the same thing of Democratic ‘Roosevelt. It seems neither political party desires concentrated authority which is the first step toward a dictatorship.

In Europe each » it becomes more difficult for them to make good on their job and maintain peace. The communist, or left wing faction of the socialist movement, is perfectly frank in stating that it is out to destroy all religious faiths. Communists know that so long as the people accept a_ spiritual basis for their actions, they are not likely to make good revolutionists. Deeply root- ed in the United States, religion stands as ‘a barrier to a successful revolution, and must therefore be destroyed, according to the Communists, | vehicle forced him off the road or barely ; | Many areas. SAFETY ON THE HIGHWAYS Seldom does a citizen take a _ long automobile journey without coming home| with some story of danger as he tells how | he narrowly escaped injury when another! averted crashing into his car. | The fact is that something must be | done about highway accidents but nobody knows what should be done. Should high : speed automobiles be outlawed? Few ey ple agree that this would be the Feht | remedy although most of them acknowl- | : edge that speeding is the cause of most ac- cidents. } Of eourse, one way highways would | cut down the accidents but the cost of | such a system of roads is prohibitive inj Rigid enforcement of all | traffic regulations would also help _ but, | too often, the highway patrolman is not | available because of the simple truth that | he cannot be everywhere. One contribution to safety on the highways, however, can be made by every motorist. You can obey the traffic reg- ulations, observe warning signs and drive courteously at all times. This is what everyone of us can do to assist in meeting a dangerous situation although the objec- tion immediately comes up that , all..the , care possible will not save a considefaté'! driver from a fool on the roads. | SIDELIGHTS By MARCY B. DARNALL, Former Editor of The Key West Citizen After the post-season series between | the Cubs and White Sox, a sports writer discussed in a Chicago paper the winter plans of the players. The headline read: “Hayes to Marry; Others Plan Winter of Ease.” The Rev. Marcus Dillahunty, a Negro preacher and farmer near Lebanon, Tenn., missed corn from his field, so he pushed nails into the ends of several dozen ears. Later he took witnesses to the hog pens of two suspected neighbors, and found corn- cobs with his nails. Theft charges were preferred. “T’'ve swallowed a fly,” gasped Mar-|$ gery Maxwell, Chicago opera star, as she finished the line “all things come home to rest’”’ while singing in a concert at Fargo, N. D. Conductor Kryl stopped the or- chestra; the singer left the stage; got rid of the fly, and returned to finish her song amid loud applause. 1 Pasquale Marinacci, a meek pedes- trian, of Syracuse, N. Y., tired of being frightened by the honks of arrogant motor- ists, invented a cane with an_ unusually raucous horn attached. Now he can honk back, or even beat auto drivers to the honk.

Callers at Roy Harrison’s office in Omaha recently thought his secretary had changed her mind about quitting her job to get married, as Miss Floyde Bagley ap- peared to be at her desk as usual.

Several coordinat- 4 ay rene ing the complex machinery has in, agencies have been set up which have failed to eliminate confusion.
