Drivers Training Behind the wheel drivers training is very important to beginning drivers. The United States is one of the few countries in the world where formal lessons, with graduate certificates, are not required before a drivers license is issued. Just as you cannot practice medicine, engineer buildings, or practice law without formal training before obtaining a license, so in these countries you cannot drive without formal training. For about ten years drivers training classes have been held in Adams county in several of the schools. Some have not yet adopted the program. Many schools in the country are too small for one or two special cars for the training program. A new “mobile classroom” has been designed to help these small schools. It is a large bus. Inside are six driver trainer sets of controls. The instructor has a series of 21 films showing a driver’s view of many traffic problems. As this flashes On the screen all six drivers react on their own set of controls. The instructor, sitting at the automatic scoring unit in the rear of the bus can detect each student’s driving errors as they occur. Hie bus-type unit can be rotated among the schools of the county, giving each school an additional classroom when and where it is needed. • • • • oBH Program Tonight The American flag will be honored this evening in ceremonies at the Decatur Elk’s Home at 7:15 p.m. The Decatur band will play the “Star Spangled Banner.” George Bair, the exalted ruler, will be in charge of the introductory exercises. Chaplain Sherman Koos will offer a prayer. Robert G. Smith, commander of Post 43, the American Legion, will give the history of the flag. The lodge will then give an impressive altar service for the flag. State Senator Von A. Eichhorn, of Uniondale, dean of the state senate, will give the address of the evening. The band and assembly will close with “America” in unison. Each year a good-sized crowd attends this imprgsj . size ceremony. Anyone who has not witnessed it is missing an opportunity to learn more about his nation’s symbol, and to take part in a community project. The Elks, VFW, and Legion are cooperating to make this a ... successful affair.

Dry the hands without wiping. Or, castor oil rubbed on the warts often causes them to dry. Black Straw To clean a black straw hat and restore the faded color, mix well together two-thirds olive oil and one-third jet black ink and go over the hat with a small brush.

Light Traffic Toll Recorded In State United Press International Despite heavy traffic brought
out by pleasant weather, Indiana got through the weekend with only three fatalities. James Lloyd, 21, Evansville, was killed Sunday night when his car smashed into a Greyhound bus at an Evansville street intersection. The bus driver and two dozen passengers enroute from Chicago to St. Petersburg, Fla., were unhurt. ' Gary Jensen, 18, Mount Vernon, was killed Saturday when his car collided with another on Ind. 62 near his home town. Emery Moor, 54, Richmond, was killed in a freak accident which apparently will go down in the books as a traffic fatality although the circumstances were unusual. Moor was struck by the swinging rear door of a truck on which he was riding with a load of furniture” when the open door brushed against a utility pole along a Richmond street. A fatality occurring when a bus overturned during a tour of the Studebaker-Packard corp, proving grounds at South Bend Saturday missed being a traffic death because it occurred on private property and not a public street or Highway. Helen Fetzer, 49, Melrose Park, Hl., was the victim. She was among 11 persons injured ft the accident. While trafifc deaths were low, Other violent deaths were recorded to make the weekend a tragic one in Hoosierland. There were two drownings two pedestrians killed by trains, and a fatal house trailer fire, 2_ The Evansville bus-car accident Involved a coach driven by Boerner Pride, 44, Paris, 111. Lloyd was dead on arrival at a hospital. Two passengers in his car were injured only slightly.
French Labor Unions Abandon General Strike PARIS (UPI) — French labor unions avoided a showdown clash ■ with President Charles de Gaulle’s ■ government on his wage-freezing I austerity program today by calling off a threatened general . strike set for Tuesday. The unions agreed to withdraw the strike order following a last- . minute conference with Public ' Works Minister Robert Buron i Acting on behalf of the govern--1 ment, which owns the rail net- • work, Buron proposed to open a : new round of wage talks with the 1 union. All major unions — Catholic, Socialist and Communist — agreed to the truce offer and issued a stay-on-the-job order. More than 360,000 railroad men had planned to walk out for eight hours starting Tuesday, despite a government order that they stay on their jobs. The stay-put order was issued under emergency legislation signed by De Gaulle Sat- . urday. The government decided to , draft the railroad men into the army for fear the scheduled strike would produce transport chaos and set off a general strike movement. Ground personnel at Paris airfield and workers on the city’s subway and bus • systems had threatened to join the rail.strike. Now they presumably will rescind their strike order. The railroad men claim they need wage increases of up to 20 per cent to catch up with the official Iviing standard index. The strike was called off when Buron offered to review the railroad workers’ salaries of the past two months on condition the nation’s financial position will permit wholesale wage hikes. He also, promised to revise hte railroadmen’s social benefits upward.

Beginning about 8:30, the showers slacked off about noon, with the skies still overcast, giving area residents reason to hope for more rain to moisten dry lawns and newly planted corn fields, which will yield poor stands without some moisture to help the seed germinate. Weather observer Louis Landrum reported this nocm that the showers amounted to .07 inch. The St. Mary’s river stood at a low 1.34 feet earlier this morning.
