Auto Clubs Undertake Educational • • Campaign to Safety-ize Indiana .t—- , —-J SAFETY LESSON NO. 2 PREPAMED BY THE lOOSIER STATE AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION .••1w •U! '7l JU-' k feSI |®|h‘ I'Urgll Krauadw “Hitching on to Death’’ Indications are that there will be a registration in excess of 800. out) automotive vehicles registered in Indiana in 1928. registration beginning December 15. tn addition to this it is estimated that over 1,000,000 automotive vehicles from other states travel Indiana roads each year. Death lurks on the rear end of every vehicle. .The first reported accident c,f 1927, according to E. R. Baldridge, President, Hoosier State Automobile Association, was caused by a boy ‘ hitching on to a truck. With the snow now prevalent in northern Indiana and shortly to be expected in the southern part of the State, few people realize the additional hzard to children of age. that yet indulge in the tempting pastime of “hitching.” / x 4 The boy who ’’hitches'' or steals a ride to get home quicker, really wastes more time to get the ride than would usually be required to get him home. Even when he gets a ride he saves only a few minutes time \\ hat utter foolishness to risk life and limb to save a minute W a boy’s time. Sensible persons do not act that way. Intelligent boys do not act that way. As pointed out recent y by a prominent Indiana educator, even cows and chickens have developed a safety instinct and apparently know enough to get away and keep away from moving automotive vehicles, such as automobiles and trucks. Close observers tell us that these animals are no linger killed in tlie highways in such large numbers as they were several years ago. Surely the boys and girls can be trained to develop sufficient intelligence and ski'll that they will realize the dangers.

U. S. GRAND JURY TO MEET MAR. 5 Indianapolis. Feb. IS — (UP) The Federal grand jury will be called for March 5 to investigate a number of alleged violations since the December session. Federal Judge Robert ('. Haltbell announced today. The grand jury I call will be tentative, subject to cancollation if the bill creating two separate federal court districts in Indiana should be passed by the House and i signed by President Coolidge before that date. The measure already has been passed by the Senate. Enactment ' of the bill would cause dismissal of the present grand and petit juries, requiring drawing of new juries composed solely cf residents and taxpayers of this court district. At present the state is listed as one district, although in practice Judge Baltzell heat s cases arising. in the southern half and Judge Thbmas W. Slick hears those arising in the northern portion. Division of the State into two senaI rate districts would create several new , posts including a district attorney and a court clerk, sot Ihe northern district. Under the present arrangement District Attorney Albert Ward. Clerk William C. Kappes and .Marshal Alt' O. Meloy, with offices here, serve the eni tire'state through deputies. o Dr. J. H.

ANTI-GIFT LEAGUE FORMED IN FRANCE Paris — (UP)—An Anti-Gift Giving League has come into being in Franco. The League has no dues and no formality of members. To belong, a prospective Leaguer need cnlv to swear eft' gift giving and write his intentions on cards which he mails, instead of presents, on birthdays, anniversaries and at Christmas, to his friends. M. Etienne Martinan, a high official in one of the French administrations, is father of the League and its first President. He was inspired by refusal of men hunts to cut prices in accordance with the index of living costs on the Tiretense that prices must stay up during holiday business rushes. The 20,000 swern members of his League now Plan to abolish tips by the same system. Instead of tipping hotel waitresses and bellboys, consierges and taxi-cab drivers, members will hand their raids upon which are printed their names as members of the An-ti-Gift and Tip Cfeague. Where for business or family reasons, it would be imprudent to discontinue entirely t'.ie giving of gifts, League members are authorized to exchange small gifts of symbolic rather than monetary value, such as a small bunch of violets, a bottle of wine or a sack of gumdrops. Between members of the League who in past years may have exchanged a box of sugared-chestnuts for a bunch of rcses, the formality now is to exchange curds, only, each card carrying mention of'the League. o GENEVA NEWS « T.

MY COUNTY IN FAVOR OF LAKE Portland, Feb. 18 Portland and Jay county leslilenls ate greatly Interested in the proposed Idea <»!’ a lake near | Geneva as has been iMlvocated recent )y. ilt Is thought the project can ss cure government aid as a mutter of flood prevention. Prominent citizens m this city have written Senator James ' E. Watson In regard to the matter, and It Is though the senior Indiana semi tor will give the matter Immediate con siderut lon. One Idea advanced f ,r a lake, is fie ecnstriletlon of n dam about one mile southwest of Geneva, in Uliat is known as the Lob region. Data have recently been complied by compeiant engineers which shows that a dam constructed nt a point approximately one mile southwest of Geneva, 15 feet high, would form a lake six miles in length and ; from one-half to three miles wide, with un uveiage depth of between 9 to 12 feet. It is said residents of Geneva nre dam. the depth of water would be three feet. It is sal dresidents of Geneva are in favor cf the creation of a lake near there, and naming it after Mrs. Gene Stratton-Porter, u former Geneva resident. This seems to be a popular title and would serve us a lasting memorial for the author, who liked all out doors. Another plan that has been proposed, which would bear directly on the I matter of flood prevention, is a dam a-1 cross the Wabash liver between Geneva and the Jimtown bridge. Such a dam would impound the flood waters' of the upper reaches of the river and j might be more acceptable to residents along the,river to the west, who have already raised objections to the dredging ot the river from a point east of Wabash, Ohio to the Jimtown bridge. Considerable interest Kas been aroused in this city. Geneva, Decatur and Bluffton, regarding the proposed dredge and some scheme to conserve the natural beauties of the Wabash valley in this section.
