Should Teenagers Have Automobiles?
Should a teenage boy have an
automobile of his own?
Every boy 1 have talked to, end
that's been a good number, be-
lieve th°,v should have one, if they
could afford it. Nearly every one
tacked on the condition—"if I
could afford it," which shows, if
nothing else, that most teenagers
today understand the practical
problems of ownership.
I think the answer to the ques-
tion, depends upon a number of
factors and not "if I could afford
it."
First, the temperament of the
teenager should be considered.
Many boys of 17 and 18 are more
matured than their parents like to
admit, and, in this respect are
capable of automobile ownership.
On the other hand, I know a
number of high school seniors,
all about 18 years old, that it
would be like giving them a gun
and telling them to shoot if they
possessed a car.
There are other factors just as
important. Among them I would
list location. In greatly populated
centers where there is every pos-
sibility of good transportation fa-
cilities, and where traffic conges-
tion is likely also, there is much
less reason for the teenager to
own a automobile.
In many rural and suburban
areas teenage car ownerrhip can
be an absolute necessity. For tho:e
boys who are mechanical minded
a car can be a source cf training,
pride and accomplishment.
This is not, after all, a question
that can be answered and applied
to masses of teenagers. There are
too many individual factors and
problems.
What do you think?

WSCS Training
Service
An interested gvoup of the
Methodist Woman's Society of
Christian Service gathered on
Wednesday morning May 14. 1958,
at 9:30, for their annual officer's
training service, in the church
sanctuary with their vice-presi-
dent, Mrs Walter McGowan
presiding. Mrs. A. C. Doyle led
the group m singing hymn "Lord
Led Him To Calvary," with Mrs.
Buddie Campbell pianist. A pray-
er was then pronounced by Mrs.
Joe January.
The meditation was brought
by Mrs. Cecil Hardaway, reading
the 13th chapter of I Corinthians.
In their first epistle of Paul, call-
ed to be an apostle of Jesus
Christ these words: Faith, Hope
and Charity are impressed in our
minds: but the greatest of these
three is charity. Then closed the
meditation with a prayer.
Each outgoing officer read her
officer's duties, then passed her
recommendations on to the in-
coming officer.
Service was then closed by Mrs.
Cecil Hardaway reading "A Re-
cipe For a New Year". Prayer of
dismisal was pronounced by Mrs.
J. C. Yeaman.
Attending were: John Ella
Hathorn, Mesdames. Walter San-
ders Lynn Boomer, A. D. Blanton,
Joe January, Buddy Campbell, A.
C Doyle, Leroy Bell, Judge Davis
J. C. Yeaman, Walter McGowan,
Cecil Hardaway, and J. A. Stalcup
Next Sunday, June the 1st at
5 00 p.m. during the evening
worship the WSCS installation
service will be held in the church
sanctuary.
i Mrs. Frank Truitt and son Lar-
ry of Friona, Texas, spent a few
days in Claude visiting her moth-
er Mrs. Maggie Tims and other
friends.
«! Mrs. George Wilmoth and Madi-
son Gale were Tuesday afternoon
visitors in the Arvin Triplett
home.
A BUILDING THAT
EARNS IT'S COST
It appears that commercial storage will be in short
supply by harvest time . . . We can errect a good farm
storage building for you before harvest that will pay
for itself in farm storage payments alone . . . After
you sell your grain the building can be used for utility
and farm equipment storage . . .
Utility Farm Buildings
6 0' x 4 0' - With Reinforced Concrete Floor
2400 Sq. Ft.-$4500.00
Excellent For Grain & Implement Storage
A building 40x60 with 8 ft. walls will hold approxi-
mately 15,360 bu. of grain ... At 13c per bu. for
storage alone this would net you $1,996.80 or there-
about.
