Slippery roads, icy windshields, more hours of darkness —these are the hazards motorists must contend with for the next several months. What have you done to prepare for driving under such adverse weather conditions? Is your windshield in good condition? Are your brakes good? Regardless of how mechanically perfect your car is, if you do not change your driving habits, the possibility of your having an accident is great. Good brakes won’t be of much help on a stretch of icy pavement if you are traveling fast and are required to make a sudden stop. You aPPIy the brakes, but the car merely slides along. Control your speed; approach intersections, stop signs, and traffic signals with caution. Winter driving requires mucn more alertness, less speed, and good common sense. IT IS EXCUSABLE We are always eager and willing to wave the flag and shout hip-hip-hurray for any American scene displaying our democracy and the red, white and blue. But there have been times in all our lives when the refrain of the Star Spangled Banner has caught us where we weren t in a position to be so patriotic. Our problem has been answered for us by the retired President General of the U. S. Flag Association who answered a woman writing in for information. It is all right not to stand during a rendition of the national anthem if you are: —in beu, eating, telephoning, playing cards or taking a bath. This knowledge win be a relief to us who never knew what would be the action of a true American under situations as staved.-— Exchange.

Parcel Post Service 23 Years Old The parcel post service was inaugurated 25 years ago when John Wanamaker, the famous Philadelphia merchant, mailed the first parcel post package to President William Howard Taft at Washington. Wanamaker, as Postmaster General under President Benjamin Harrison, 1889-93, was the foremost business advocate of the Parcel Post system. From a minor division of the postal service, parcel post has made such strides that today it is in second place, representing approximately 19 per cent of the total postal revenue. For the year 1938 fiscal year the revenue from parcel post totaled $140,000,000.
