SCIENCE IN
YOUR UFE
Today's Hidden Bargains
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statis-
tics recently published some figures
showing that the cost of living has
climbed 66 per cent during the last
ten years. Food prices have gone
up even further - to buy a bag of
groceries that sold for $10.00 in
1947 now costs $16.70.
But lucky for consumers, the
Jirice increase on some goods has
sgged behind in this post-war coit
spiral and these few products have
suddenly become today's hidden
bargains. The
price of drugs and
prescriptions, for
example, accord-
ing to government
figures, has climb-
ngures, has climb-
ed only 31 per
cent since 1947 -
a small increase
when compared to
the 66 per cent
hike in the total cost of living.
Yet the price doesn't tell the
whole story. The real reason why
today's drugs are the biggest sav-
ing in history is that they save lives
besides money. In the past ten
years, the U.S. Public Health Serv-
ice estimates that drugs such as
antibiotics, have prevented more
than a million persons from dying
of pneumonia, and as a result, the
disesse - the second major killer in
1930 - has now fsllen to seventh
place on the nation's death list.
Drugs have cut the cost of treat-
ing pneumonia, too. Twenty years
ago, the disease meant weeks of
hospital expenses and death for one
out of every four patients. Today
almost all of these same cases can
be treated in the home or even in
the doctor's office, and the disesse is
knocked out within three days to a
week.
Although they may cost more,
modern medicines can do what 1930
drugs could never do — cure disesse
and, in many cases, prevent the ex-
pense of hospital care. Important as
these facts are, statisticians never
use them in compiling their cost of
living surveys.
Brush Hauling Fee
Is Levied By City
A $1 per load fee has been set
for removal of brush and tree
cuttings requiring use of a flat-
bed truck, city officials said
Thursday.
Heavy demand for brush and
tree limb removal is requiring
use of the flat-bed truck and a
truck crew and the fee is to help
defray the extra expense.
It applies only to brush which
cannot be removed in regular
garbage collection trucks.
And He said unto them,
Where is your faith? — (St
Luke 8, 25.)
When, distressed by
troubles we feel unable to
overcome, or faced with tribu-
lations that seem beyond our
strength, we may well heed
the question the Lord Jesus
asks us, as He asked it of His
disciples. Strong in our faith
that God is ever willing and
ready to help, we shall aTways
be sustained.

Drunken Driving
Charge Is Filed
On Matador Han
Charges of driving while in-
toxicated, second offense, were
on file Thursday against a Mata-
dor cafe operator, George Mor-
gan Middlebrooks, 33.
The man was arrested by High-
way Patrolman Jean Pate Satur-
day night six miles north of
Seminole on Andrews Highway.
The officer said the man's vehic-
le was weaving along the road.
Records showed Middlebrooks
had been fined In county crimin-
al court in Gaines County in
January, 1955, for driving while
intoxicated.
His was the first arrest after
officers Initiated a crackdown on
drunken and drinking drivers.
During 1957 drinking or drunk-
en drivers were involved in more
than half of the county's traffic
deaths.
Help Asked
Charges against Middlebrooks
were filed by Patrolman Pate
with County Attorney Stephen
Haley and set for hearing before
Justice of the Peace J. P. Kelly
who set a $1,000 bond In the
case.
In their offensive against driv-
ing while intoxicated, officers
are seeking cooperation of citi-
zens.
Motorists who spot drunken
drivers have been asked to report
them as soon as possible.
First offense driving while in-
toxicated is a misdemeanor, pun-
ishable by a fine, a three-day jail
sentence and six-month esuspen-
sion of driving privileges.
The second offense of DWI is
a felony offense punishable by
as many as five years in the
penitentiary.

W-2 Form Time
Again, Employers
Here Are Advised
Seminole employers were re-
minded Thursday that their em-
ployees are entitled to receive
two copies of a "Withholding
Statement," Form W-2, on or
before Friday, Jan. 31.
John R. Robinson of Internal
Revenue Service, Odessa, said,
"This statement shows the to-
tal wages paid and the income
tax and social security tax with-
held, if any, during the calendar
year of 1957."
Total wages shown on an em-
ployee's W-2 should include a-
mounts received as sick pay
from his employer, even though
no tax has been withheld on
such sick pay. Sick pay is n6t
required to be shown separately.
Mr. Robinson said that If It
becomes necessary to correct a
W-2 after It has been given to
an employee, a corrected state-
ment must be issued and mark-
ed "corrected by employer."
The ideas that benefit a man
are seldom welcomed by him on
first presentation.—Elbert Hub-
bard.
New ideas can be good or bad,
just the same as old ones. —
Franklin D. Roosevelt.
For safe driving, make it a family rale that children am Met
permitted to distract the driver.
Here's a checklist of driving do's and don'te for harassed and
harried mothers who have to make so many estra "last minute"
shopping trips during the holidays.
Remember, while such devices as nylon safety belts, dashboard*
cushioned with urethane foam, and laminated safety glass windows
minimise injuries when accidents occur, they do not prevent col-
lisions from taking planf It is also important to imp windshield
wipers in good operating condition at all times, and glass areas
dean of snow, sleet, and dirt.
Ofa^rve these 14 rules prepared by the National Safety Council,
and your SQ* will put you at the head of the dass:
1. Never leave children alone in the car, regardless of whether
or not the motor is left running.
2. Have youngsters ride in bade seat whenever poeeible.
S. Allow no eating of lollipops or ice cream on sticks in moving
car.
4. Permit no rough-housing, friendly or otherwise.
5. Have family rule that children are not permitted to distract
driver (remember, always pull over to the curb and stop car if it
becomes necessary to admonish children).
6. All riders must be seated while auto is moving.
7. Hands, heads, and possessions must remain inside the eat at
all times.
8. AU doors locked when vehicle is in motion.
9. No sharp-edged, hard or heavy toys permitted which might
become lethal flying missiles in case of sudden stops.
10. No objects stowed at any time on window deck behind tear
seat. )
11. Infants firmly strapped in car bed or halter type safety seat
belt at all times.
12. Driver should be physically fit. Don't drive when tired or
high-strung. Car should be mechanically safe also.
13. Children in back should not be sitting in drafts. Crack side
vents to provide necessary ventilation, prevent exposures leading
to colds or infections.
14. Always remember to be alert to the actions of drivers of
other cars. They may not be as careful about their driving habits
as you are.
