Yet, nearly every day of the year more fatal accidents occur at night than in the daytime. This was called to our attention again just recently when the State of Massachusetts released its 1956 accident figures. In the hours of daylight (6:00 .A.M. to 6:00 P.M.), 195 persons lost their lives in traffic acci dents. Note that these hours in clude both, so called, morning and evening “rush hours" when many workers wend their way to and from work. And yet we see that in the hours between 6:00 f.M. and 6:00 A.M. 306 persons lost their lives—111 more fatalities than occurred during daylight and yet —only about one-third as much traffic flow was on the streets and highways. To what can we attribute these disproportionate oddsT To but one major factor—the inability to see! Since out human faculties and reflexes break down with the coming of darkness, we must look for a solution. Either we must create super-human beings, able to see as well at night as in daylight, or—we must provide the present human with enough light to see after dark. Even though the vehicles in j vo.ved in these fatal crashes were Is YOUR Family Part Of OPERATION L. O. D.? OPERATION LIVING OUT DOORS get* underway through out America the minute hot weather comes along. Families have learned that they ran use electrical appliances ouUide the house to cook and that they ran have all tho lighting they need on their patios anti lawns for games, dining, reading . . . but only it they have tho proper wir ing to accommodate these appli ances and lights.

The American Bayon Institute chose as an outstanding example of transition fashions this silhouette de signed by Kasper of Arnold & Fox. It features a semi-fitted middy overblouse and mounted sheath skirt. The bateau neckline is banded and bowed in black rayon satin. Pioneer Village —“Boom Town” This Pony Express relay station is one of the most recent additions to Pioneer Village. The station-keeper's cabin in front was actually used by the Pony Express and was moved to the Village from Bridgeport, Nebraska. The saddle which is being examined by Harold Warp, Owner of the Village, and his sister, Mrs. T. C. Jensen, Manager, was originally owned by Buffalo Bill Cody and was later used in the movies by Rudolph Valentino. Built just four years ago on the "prairies” of Nebraska, unique Pioneer Village is figuratively—and almost literally, too—a "boom town” on a big scale. Located at Minden, Nebraska, on transcontinental U.S. High way 0, Pioneer Village is one of the nation's most comprehensive collections of Americana, cover ing the period from 1830 to now. . Located on an area of two city blocks, Pioneer Village has grown from twelve buildings at its opening to twenty today., Except for a few large display buildings, the structbres were ac tually built during Nebraska’s pioneer days, or are authentic replicas. The number of individual items In the collection — covering every field of man’s endeavor — has grown from 10.000 to more --- ■ than 20,000. While no one actually live* In the Village, its transient "popu lation” of visitors has totalled in the hundreds of thousands. Most recent additions to the Village include an authentio Pony Express relay station; a new display building to house the nation’s most complete collection of tractors; a "Hobby House”; the last windmill in use on the Union Pacific railroad; the sec ond jet plane ever manufactured in the United States; a fascinat ing collection of mechanical banks; and an old-time merry go-round.

BE SMART-START BUYING BONDS NON/ Vice President Nixon Tries ‘Senate Salad’ Vice President Richard M. Nixon is handed his plate of “Sen ate Salad’’ by Mrs. America of lfl.'iS timing a recent luncheon at the Capitol. “Senate Salad” tv .ns tt: J in the largest—three feet wide and 14 inches deep— ■’ .1 hotel in the world. Containing the products of eight states, tiiu c lad wa:v topped by a garlic-type salad dressing mix. A new salad, “Senate Salad”, was created and served recently nt tho U.S. Capitol. "Vice Presi dent Nixon was among tlio 35 Senators, innumerable Congress men, Congressional start mem bers and press — totaling more than 500—who tried the new di.sli. It is unusual for a new dish to bo created in tho nation’s Capi tol. Here's how it happened: Nine Members of Congress who come from slates that produce or manufacture ingredients im portant in salad making derided to serve an original salad to their colleagues on Capitol Hill. The result was “Senate Salad”. To meet the need of the occasion it turned out to be the largest of its kind ever served in the world. The ingredients of “Senate Sal ad” were: ten hpads of Arizona and California iceberg and ro maine lettuce, 20 bunches of West Virginia water cress, 14 hunches of Texas green onions, 75 pounds of Maine lobster meat, 30 hunches of California celery, 156 New Jer sey tomatoes, 78 California avo cados, one gallon of California ripe olives, 40 Arizona graj>e fruit, two quarts of Michigan vinegar and 30 envelopes of a garlic-typo salad dressing mix. To serve this largest salad in the world, naturally, tho largest salad bowl in tho world was needed. The bowl, hand-turned and made of solid walnut, was three feet wide and 14 inches deep. Heaped, it held 320 main course servings of delicious "Sen ate Salad.” The salad fork and spoon each were three feet long and the cruet for the eight quarts of salad dressing was 18 inches high Tha salad bowl was presented by Mrs. America of 1958 (Mrs. Linwood Findley of Arlington, Vo..) to Vice President Nixon for the Senate Dining Room— and there is a good chance that “Senate Salad" will take its plaeo at the Capitol alongside the al ready famous “Senate Bean Soup.” "Senate Salad” is worthy of a place on everyone’s table. Of course, husbands, who are week end chefs and wives who like to try new food dishes, need not buy 75 pounds of lobster to serve "Senate Salad.” To prepare the dish for a fam ily of four, take a cup of bite size pieces of iceburg lettuce, a cup of bite-size pieces of romaine lettuce, one half cup of bite-size pieces of water cress, one and one half cups of lobster meat, one cup of diced celery, a quarter cup of chopped green onions and stems, two medium tomatoes cubed, five large ripe olives sliced and sections from one half of a grapefruit. The vinegar and salad oil to make the dressing should be use<J in the proportions required with me envelope of garlic-typp salad imaging mix. The ingredients should bo placed In a large bowl and tossed ightly. The lobster claws should je used to garnish the top. MOTOR frlA Traffic Cc<rrl Program Backed by Chib Women By Jeanne Smith, Dodge Safety Consultant BY VISITING THE NATION'S TRAFFIC COURTS as spectators rot speeders, thousands of club women are helping to prove that our American judicial system is a vital key to greater highway safety, “Go to court as a visitor—not a violator” is the theme of this unique program, jointly developed by the American Bar Association CUIU MIC auiu motive Safety Foundation. Since the fair er sex wields a mighty big influence in putting across communi ty projects, 16,600 women's groups, affili ates of the Miss Smith General Federation of Women’s Clubs, have been commissioned to assist in this important project. Briefly, here’s how the “visi tor-violator” program works: it begins by securing the coopera tion of the local traffic court judge. Interested citizens are then invited by a women’s or lawyers’ group to attend a ses sion of traffic court and evalu ate its operation. Each visitor fills out a cheek list which is used for later analysis by the American Bar Association. Where improvements are indi cated, the women and lawyers work with civic leaders to raise courtroom standards. According to David F. Maxwell, president of the Bar Association, appearing before traffic court as a violator can make or break the individual citizen’s respect for laws that govern his conduct be hind the wheel. “A well administered court serves as a preventive of traffic accidents. The driver who leaves the court with respect is less likely to take chances with lha law and become a chronic vio lator or an accident repeater. “Most judges,” Maxwell con tinues, “welcome public interest in the conditions of their courts. Many have inherited from their predecessors the physical sur roundings, staff, court procedures and legal structures. They need the support of their communities if they are to have reforms and improved conditions." And if it’s up to civic-minded women’s groups, they’ll have it IT'S WORTH KNOWING !
