Show THE "GAM AUGUST ESTABLISHED Entered at the Post YEAR— No Office READING DOWN THE SIDE THE This is a good time of year! From any eminence around our valley there stretches away before the eyes a patchwork of gold and green that signals a story of harvest ready and of crops still growing lush and strong beneath the summer sun One gets an impression of the strength that is in the earth to bring forth foods and other materials that make it possible for man to sustain himself upon it year after year But beyond this and quite apart from the sense of security the view of the fields inspires there is sheer beauty in the colors of the landscape the tinted gray and blue of the mountains and the The eye marks each detail and azure of the sky the mind paints a memory picture of it to be reviewed with growing pleasure upon future occasions for the top of the summer does not last many Other seasons come with their own attracdays tions and other years may not bring us back to an identical vantage point to see just this stirring picture again CARELESSNESS CLASSIFIED Traffic accidents are the result of many causes but the outstanding cause is carelessness Even where bad weather and unfavorable road conditions are taken into account in certain accidents the element of carelessness still remains the outstanding factor Failure to look failure to think taking attention from the road falling asleep or dozing traveling too fast for road conditions are most common types of carelessness They might be called the r negligent type There is still another type of carelessness that has figured in too many accidents of the great number that have shocked the Utah public the past few months — the deliberate type In these someone is showing off by driving at inordinate speeds for the thrill of it shining around corners to hear tires scream racing down highways or thru towns with other cars The use of liquor occasionally figures in this kind of carelessness and may also be a factor in just simple negligence Tuesday the State was stunned by a still more inexcusable type of carelessness on the highway when it was reported that a youthful driver had deliberately sideswiped another car throwing it into a spin that resulted in the violent death of a To add malice to depromising young woman liberate disregard of the essentials of safe driving is criminal in the extreme To excuse this kind of conduct would be a retreat from sanity itself and any evidence of such conduct whether it causes injury or death should be punished on the same basis as would be the malicious use of any other deadly weapon because an automobile certainly can be a deadly' weapon Safe automobile operation demands constant alertness constant restraint and a constant keen sense of responsibility With cars increasing in number to negligently deliberately or maliciously disregard any of these necessities will more and more often result in tragedy 49er Theme Set For State Fair WINNERS VALLEY NAMED TALENT IN CONTEST Miss Lavona Erickson vocalist of Beaver Dam was the first place The Utah State Fair scheduled winner in the
