Beginning in the morning the percentage of accidents steadily rises until it reaches a peak of 10 per cent. This occurs during the hours of five and six. After this hour the percentage rate of acciâ€" dents slowly decreases until it reaches a low after midnight, A surprising figure is the one which conâ€" cerns those cars travelling with only one headlight. Approximately one out of every twelve cars travels with only one headlight. [f the one headlight that works is bright, an oncoming driver is unable to determine which lightâ€"right or leftâ€"is working and this necessitates a swing in order to avoid the car. Fine for travelling with one headâ€" lifht or none after the hours of darkness is $1 and costs, For second offences the fine is increased. Travelling along the highway during night driving approximately half of the drivers never use ‘their flick gwitch but drive with the dimmer lidghts on. These drivers are most courteous and it is no inconvenience to pass these cars and at the same time see both the centre line and the right hand side of the road. A fine of up to $50 may be lm;ied upon those persons failing to dim lights for onâ€" coming cars. _ s Department of Highway Regulations state that lights must be dimmed at a distance of greater than 500 feet when.approaching onâ€" coming cars. Some drivers fail to do this in time and the danger becomes greater as the distance between the cars decreases. In a recent survey, conducted on a district highway during early evening driving, it was discovered that two out of every twelve failed to dim their headlights before passing oncoming cars. As a result, it has been proven that one out of every 100 accidents are caused by glaring headlights. DIM HEADLIGHTS Everyone should have a purpose to fulfil in this world. It is better to be of ‘good service‘ than to be a ‘sour puss.‘ Kindness and helpâ€" ing others costs little. It will dissolve petty dislikes and make .you desirous of working for the betterment of your communityâ€"and mankind. An important step in helping to develop a better understanding is to break down the many barriers that corral sections of a comâ€" munityâ€"whether religious, political or racial. A citizen who is worthy of .a good name should be broadâ€"minded and helpful in his attitude. A citizen who is habitually critical over other people‘s freedoms becomes a menâ€" ace and a hindrance in developing the welfare of a community. The community that functions successfully is peopled by citizens who have developed confidence, stability, and who are reaping the efforts of services wellâ€"rendered. They are working for one causeâ€"a better place for all to live in. In the development of a vetter understandâ€" ing in a community everyone must ‘play the game.‘ Do it vigorously, but.do it squarely and honestly; otherwise, the foundation laid will not be solid, deterioration will start and the efforts put forth will be wasted, Many a community has been spoiled through the apathy of its citizens and their failure to accept responsibility. That is a plain and undeniable statement of fact, It is just common sense. And yet we have these repeated strikes for higher and higher wages, which not only tend to reduce the value of wages, but create a state of unâ€" employment and reduce the workers to a state of poverty. "People cannot afford to remain silent and aloof if they want to understand each other." COMMUNITYâ€"MINDED "Particular wage demands which exceed what employers are able to pay with existing prices, may bring egains to the workers in the industry concerned, but they will do so at the expense of all other workers, whose real wages fall owing to the rise in prices. The other workers will naturally try to restore the position, by putting forward demands of their own. There is a real danger that sectional wage bargaining, pursued without regard to its effect upon prices, may lead to a vicious spiral of inflation, with money wages chasing prices and without any gain in real wages for the working class as a whole." it: Full employment, in its turn, depends upon the maintenance of industrk:rade and comâ€" merce on a sound economic basis. In a subseâ€" quent statement, entitled, "Full Employment in a Free Society," Sir William warns against excessive wage demands by organized labor, which he says will destroy his whole security plan, by increuing the costs of production, and decreasing the purchasing power of wages by raising prices. This is how he puts and brosf)erou "from the cradle to the {nve." ndeed he foresees th:dfouibihty hat the interval between the cradle and the grave might be abbreviated, so far as rm- perity is concerned, if too much dependence is placed upon it. After his plan was pubâ€" lished he hastened to explain that the workâ€" ing of his scheme depended upon the mainâ€" tenance of full employment to provide the wages out of which the premiums for security insurance could be paid. HIGHER WAGES AND COMMON SENSE _ Sir William Beveridge, whose Social Securâ€" ity scheme was hailed as a remedy for all soâ€" cial ills, is himself by no means sure that his elaborate plan will alone make people hapgy and prosperous "from the cradle to the (By Herb Chappel) rol1." Jt is much easier to purchase and wear a poppy on Armistice Day sometimes paid for grudgingly and merely to con{orm witi custom, ‘"Then it‘s Tommy this, an‘ Tomâ€" my that, an‘ Tommy, ‘ow‘s yer soul?

At the polls this week the propâ€" erty owners of Weston were given the opportunity of making posâ€" sible at little cost to the individual the erection of a bui]ding in the town which was to be of service to the community and to have been a perpetual memorial to the men Who gave their lives during two great wars for the defense of libâ€" erty, demoeracy, our way of living and the right of every man to own and hold property inviolate.

And she adds these heartening word: ‘"Giving does not impoverish us in the service of our Maker, neither does withholding entich né." ‘‘Mindâ€"science teaches that morâ€" tals need ‘not be weary in well doing.‘ It dissipates Ztigue in doing good" writes Mary Baker The great need otngxb world toâ€" day is an outpouri of lovingâ€" kindness that does not fluctuate or faiter or @Bate. "Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again" (Luke 6: 38). This is a divine law which out Master uttered, and he exemplified _ it throughout his gracious life. The demand upon each one of us as his followers is to give, and give generouslyâ€"not alone of our material supply, but of bur spiritual abundance. ‘ M A t Lblbnt ohiiivada s hi tac‘ i When Christ Jesus was conâ€" fronted by a multitude in need of food, he turned steadfastly away from the evidence of the deceptive senses and with gratitude opened his consciousness to receive the outpouring abundance of God‘s love. He gave thanks for what he had. The result was truly marvelâ€" ous, for in the face of a meagre ration of five loaves and two small fishes as the only visible supply, he promptly fed and satisfied a multiâ€" tude of more than five thousand people with plenty and to spare. Thus he demonstrated God‘s law of allâ€"sufficient supply which proâ€" vides everything needful for His children, not through any human scheme of distribution or mnn-‘ made mode of relief, but through the operation of divine law in hisl one individual conscioumness. Pamiliar lines from a poem by Horatius Bonar read: Think truly, and thy thoughts Shall the world‘s famine feed. Is not what seems to be a dearth of things deemed necessary for bodily existence more a lack of spiritual perception of God‘s everâ€" present zbund};nce than it is a famine of food and raiment! Or, as the prophet Amos suceinctly says (8: 11) "Not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord."
