More Bills Planned On Traffic Safety

INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Two important traffic safety bills have been introduced but more will be forthcoming in the current session of the legislature, Albert Huber, executive director of the Indiana Traffic Safety Foundation, said today. The major measures already introduced would prevent the use of parking lights on a vehicle in motion, and outlaw drag races on public highways. A somewhat less important bill already introduced would allow cities and towns to enact the socalled “model traffic ordinances” proposed by safety groups. One major measure to be introduced later would require the installation of safety belts on the front seats of automobiles sold in Indiana beginning with 1964 models. A huge increase in the size of the state police will be provided in another bill to appear later. This measure would add 50 policemen each year for a'period of four years, a total increase of 200 officers. Penalties for drunken driving will be affected by another measure of the future, according to Huber.

Compulsory suspension of strivers’ licenses for one year for the first offenses for driving while intoxicated would be reduced to 60 days to one year. Huber said this is advisable because courts and juries are refusing to convict because of the long suspension period now in effect. Compulsory jail sentences of from 5 days to 6 months would be provided but the judge could suspend these, according to the bill. Second offenses would call for license suspension from 1 to 2 years and jail for 5 days to 1 year. Other safety bills to be introduced would: Fix a speed limit of 40 miles 1 per hour on all unimproved county roads. Permit officers to make traffic arrests on evidence obtained from ; airplanes or radar. Compel periodic inspections of automobiles and other motor vehicles to eliminate dangerous “junkers” from the highways. Authorize model rules for procedure in traffic courts, designed to reduce abuses and irregularities in justice of the peace and other courts. ry Wulliman & Son, Berne, produced 17,260 lbs. milk and 616 Ibs. butterfat in 305 days. According to the national Holstein organization, the new production figures compare to an annual output of 7,211 ibs. of milk and 270 lbs. of butterfat by the average U. S. dairy cow. Purdue University supervised the weighing and testing of the Holstein records as part of the breed’s nation-wide herd testing programs.

First Negro Senator In 50-Year Span ATLANTA (UPI) — Negro spectators sat in galleries previously restricted to whites Monday to watch the first Negro senator in half a century take a seat in the Georgia Legislature. “My welcome was very cor- ! dial,” said Sen.

Purple Fannings PURPLE PENNINGS By Patsy Lee Leaders County Extension Agent Home Economics There is a letter in the mail to all the Home Demonstration club presidents giving tjifem the details of the “flower hat demonstration.” | This will be held February 19, in the Farm Co-op building in MonI roe. I’m sorry that a few clubs i will not meet until after the hat! supplies have been sold so if you: want the details in the letter please contact your club president or the county extension office. Some of you may not think you have the talent for making these hats and some of you may have alj ways wanted to try it, but have never had the opportunity. I’ve been told by people who have tried making these hats that it is fur, that almost anyone can do it, and that you may save a cons.derable I amount-of money by doing the hat yourself. Plus the added bonus that you will have an original spring bonnet. ! This week I visited Mrs. Thomp--1 son’s shop in Fort Wayne to select the materials for making a spring creation. — With all this gloomy i and cold weather it really perked up my morale to look at all those I lovely spring flowers. From this experience I would like to suggest that before the day of the hat supply sale, you decide ! which suits or dresses you will be I wearing with your new creation. | The hat supplies are being sold a week in advance of the demonstration because the hats must be sized before the flowers may be Trade in a good town — Decatur.

attached. If you only Intend to do one hat, it might be a wise idea to buy the small bottle of sizing with some other women in your club and then have a “hat sizing” party. One word of caution about this: be sure the room is well ventilated if several of you are sizing hats. The hat supplies will be sold by Mrs. Golda Thompson of Fort Wayne at 1 p.m. Feb. 6 in the county extension office in Decatur, and at 1 p.m. in the Farm Co-op building in Monroe Feb. 8. The Advance Pattern company’s demonstration of the Bishop method of sewing which is to be given in Huntington county will be open to women other than Home demonstration club members if there is a vacancy. Therefore if any women are interested I suggest they call the county extension office and have their names put on a waiting list. February 25 will be devoted to beginning clothing construction methods and Feb. 26 to tailoring. Some of you may have received robes for Christmas which have pretty bows at the neck and if you are like most woman you wear

the tobe while preparing breakfast. Those pretty little bows are a nuisance, plus a fire hazard K they come in contact with an open flame. If you can’t bear to throw it away, why not clip it from the front neckline and attach it to the back neckline, thus adding what designers call “back interest.” Thursday, January 17, the lesson leaders will attend an all day session for the club lessons, “Recreation for the Bedfast.” Charles Richardson, Purdue University rural health specialist, will present the lesson material. This is the time of year to begin looking through the seed catalogues and selecting your supply of herbs for this summer. Now, I know most of you are accustomed to planning flower and vegetable gardens this time of year, but what a new world can be opened to you if you plan to put an herb or two in along with your other garden plants. Some of the catalogues only have the botanical names listed which has me really tempted to order them just to see what grows with such an unusual name.

By the way, if you have any crocks which you won’t be needing for awhile, I should appreciate borrowing them. At the present time I’m planning some potpourri jars for some club lessons and desparately need several crocks to make this. While I’m sending out “emergency” calls I may as well say I need a wooden wagon wheel to make as herb wheel. Speaking of herbs, have any of you tried putting a pinch of Rosemary in peas or a touch of nutmeg and some water chestnuts in peas. A light touch of basil in canned tomatoes while they are cooking will-added a little interest. A little bird whispered in our ear that there is a good supply of tomato products, in fact, 22% over last year. This means all of us will be able to see good values in canned tomato products. Buy according to your use. The large fancy pack is perfect for salads and serving whole. For casseroles and soups the lewer grade and price tomato is a good selection. Remember, tomatoes are low in calories, are high in vitamin C, have many meal uses, are available

the year 'round and retain vitamins well when cooked properly. The recent freeze in florida will cut back the amount of frozen orange juice concentrate made this season, but a publication from the U.S. department of agriculture states that the slack could be “taken up” by more than 34 million gallons on hand December 1. with all the colds and flu going around it is extremely important that each person keep his resistance up by eating well balanced meals daily, and be certain to eat some source of Vitamin C. Os course, citrus fruits are excellent sources, but with the Florida freeze some of you may be looking around for other vitamin C. rich foods. Brussel sprouts, cabbage, potatoes and rutabegas have sufficient vitamin C. to help “fill the gap,” when cooked properly. The January issue of Farm News has an article written by the American medical association which may be of some interest to many of you. pon’t forget to look on page two. In browsing through a pamphlet (“Passport to Knowledge — Your

Library Card”) from the library I discovered two pages which illustrated what fifteen minutes a day spent in reading a book could doing increasing the number of books you read a year. For example, a half a book Would be read and in a year’s time you would read 24 books. There are several times during the day that could be used if we think about it and start the habit. What about the time you spend waiting for someone or something? Have any of you wished when the snow was so deep that it would suddenly melt and you could have an old fashioned wiener roast? Those of you with indoor fireplaces may well do this and it is fun not only for the children, but the adults. Hot dogs would probably be less messy than hamburger patties. Os course, the type flooring you have around the fireplace would determine whether you want to risk this type of evening meal. Maybe just roasting marshmallows and putting them between graham crackers for dessert might be enough of the insideoutdoor cooking meal fare for you.
