rectional signs are too small and
not sufficiently informative. The
reason is simple enough—the
Beltway was opened before per-
manent signs had been put in
place.
Sometimes a motorist will
turn off one of the older main
highways in order to drive on a
parallel stretch of newly com-
pleted Interstate highway only
to find that he loses so much
time getting on the new road
and back off at the other end
that the experiment wasn’t real-
ly worthwhile. Under such cir-
cumstances, the highway depart-
ment may decide not to open the
Interstate segment at all until
enough of it has been completed
to make it a fully efficient fa-
cility.
Many factors have to be con-
sidered by the highway depart-
ment in deciding when a road is
nearly enough finished to be
useable. The safety of motorists
is probably the prime factor.
Sometimes an unfinished road is
quite safe if special speed re-
strictions are obeyed, but it is
very difficult to enforce a 35-
mile-per-hour speed limit on a
highway designed to carry traffic
safely at 70 miles per hour.
The when - to - open problem
would be simpler if motorists
could be made to understand
that a road that is not complete-
ly finished has special hazards
and inconveniences that are only
temporary.
Mrs. A. H. Price had charge
of the Year Book program when
the Woman’s Society of Christian
Service met in Fellowship Hall
of First Methodist Church Mon-
day aftemon. Fourteen members
were present. The title of the
program was Spanish American
Visitors Speak.
The hymn, from Ocrean Unto
Ocean was sung by the group
with Mrs. A. H. Price as accom-
panist.
Mrs. Prudence Kelsey read the
scripture from Matthew 12:46-
50 and 13:33. She also offered
prayer.

“The Caney Creek Watershed
project made a big step forward
this week,” reports C. E. Cook,
chairman, Fannin County Water
Control and Improvement District
No. 1. “All easements necessary
for construction were secured on
our first structure, Site 10, which
is north of Ector,” Cook said.
“A total of fifteen floodwater
retarding structures are planned
in Caney Creek,” Mr. Cook said.
“Eight sites now lack only one
easement each being ready to
build.”
“We have high hopes of get-
ting all needed easements sign-
ed on at’ least four sites in the
next few months,” Mr. Cook
stated. If we can do this, we
hope to be able to get construc-
tion started in 1965. We have
made good progress this year and
have secured 7 easements in the
last few months.
