In Utah last vear there were 7,f99 recorded motor vehicle accidents, in which S.706 people were injured and 199 killed. violaIf 5 700 of those accidents proved to result from law comwho tions, thre were undoubtedly many more drivers time for the it being. mitted violations and got away with Never forget that statistics prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that sooner or later the habitual violator runs out of luck and straight into trouble. With the rapid increase in motor vehicle registrations in Utah, highway travel will become more dangerous every day unless all of us use just plain common sense. If Utah citizens are to enjov the distinct pleasures and advantages of the automobile as they rightly should they must faithfully observe the simple rules of the road which have been written solely to protect all of us from injury and sudden death. These rules must be carefullv taught, soundly enforced and conwholestantly remembered. This calls for the energetic and law enforcement of agencies, hearted cooperation not only traffic engineers and educators, but also of every driver and Iedestrian in the state. When it comes to safety, we're all in the same lxat there are no exceptions. FOR YOUR r.'i ROMANTIC HISTORY AND XtTRAY YOUR i:OW g.

The reason is to wash away the sins of the past and to start the new year clean and free from sin. The Korean is 3 years old when born, and If he is born on New .Year's Eve, he then becomes a year older, making him 4 years old at birth. There are many shops of all kinds. Some of the poorer merchants such as the shoe cobbler, has his shop right on the sidewalks. In the shops they sell everything Imaginable rich silks costing thousands of yen per yard, to rice and fish, the stan dard Korean food. Their houses are of one story and very thin, the doors and windows slide from side to side, instead of up and down. Upon entering a Korean home, we have to remove our shoes, as that is the custom. Their heating Is very strange; they build a fire under the floor which warms the entire house" also they sleep on the floor on straw matting, but if they are rich, they have silk Again wo will feature our tasty, delicious CHOCOLATE IXXA1KS week-en- d guests, relatives from Salt Lake City.

"3 ', m The following letter was received from Paul W. Bowen, of Beaver Dam, who has been in Korea for quite some time: Dear Friends: Upon my arrival in Korea, as our ship dropped anchor, the first sight to greet my eyes, was the very mountainous country before us. We unloaded from our ship onto a landing barge which brought us to the port city of Jinsen. As the barge' drew to shore I noticed some of the people of Korea, and they are of the yellow race, consisting of Chinese, Japanese and Korean. We left the barge, walked a short ways to the train which brought us to Yong Po, the railroad depot. The train we boarded would have caused our fellow Americans to stand aghast as it did us, as it Is so far removed from anything you will ever see, even In the junk yard. First, there are few windows. They are broken out, there are no seats, no heat and no lights. The wheels are of spokes, instead of the solid wheels. The engine slops very few minutes to pick up steam so it can proceed a mile further. The1 old train goes quite well down hill, but not so on the level or upgrade. As the train rolled along in its slow motion, we had a good chance to Fee many of the people of Korea, their ways and customs. One of the first things to catch our eye was the new bright clothes the wo:,Hr, wear also the Infants tied to their backs, which is the way all Infants are carried. Next, we noticed many people in white, and upon inquiring the for this, wc were told these pro-pwere in mourning for their dead and white is the mourning color here instead of black. A Korean funeral is milly something to see. The deceased has two coffins, one to carry him in and the other for the evil spirits. The coffins are of the brightest colors and very fancy. No women are allowed to attend, only the men who carry huge banners telling of the person's station in J' - f Oftentimes the funeral life. procession is miles long it all depends just how rich the person was in life.
