Help yourself and others to retain that privilege by following these simple rules. Always get permission before entering private property. Don't disturb livestock or crops. Dont litter. Dont block roadways or gates. Do thank your host for the use of his property. to Stretch Your Highway Dollars is the title of a new booklet being mailed to local city and county officials.

Teachers and the children play typical percussion in- kindergarten struments. Although the chil- dren may not hear the sounds as we do, they are extremely responsive to music. Teachers help the children know the in- struments, learn their names by touch and by sight and lis- ton to and feel the vibrations of the different sounds. How far the children will is not known.
