FOR ROAD SIGNS
_@By KATHERINE BRAITHWAITE)
"Te town of North San Juan is
‘comprised of 320 permanent ‘residents: It is so situated that the town’s
‘main street is a section of State
Highway No. 49 and twenty of the
Samilies of the above mentioned num‘her nave homes facing this highway,
besides the elementary school building which regularly has attendance
of 35 pupils. : as
Tourists traversing this highway
‘have no highway signs.to warn them
they are approaching a small town.
Gonsequently they motor down the
“main street at the average speed of
forty rive to_sixty miles per hour.
There is no sign to indieate the
mame of the town. People ‘traveling
through often stop and inquire as to
its location.
.There are five known adolescent
youths and at least that many unknown adults. who drive “up and
‘down through the town at Jaw breaking speed and with cut-outs wide
open. Men on Shift and sleeping dur{ng the day enjoy no rest. Babies and
sick people are constantly -disturbed
by this unnecessary racket.
People attending to their shopping
in North San Juan take their lives
“4m their hands when they venture out
on ¢his section of the highway. Chil“dren going to and from sehool or to
stores are constantly endangered.
The regular state school signs usmaliy placed approximately 500 feet
on each side of the school building
have not been officially erected here,
The town has one, which was placed
there by one of the loca) bar tenders.
When the highway traffic officer
sends a highway patrolman up to in Westigate the speeding the word goes
" @found and the local offenders go
on good behavior so the menace to
Vives and limbs is never lessened.
4.The enraged citizens of North San
Juan have petitioned the highway
patrol office at Hills Plat for highWay signs and instructions as to how
the danger of speeding and reckless
driving may be removed from the
community. License plate numbers of
ears driving with opén cut-outs will
be mailed to Sacramento.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 5.—Modern
motion pictures have no more real
effect on the children of today than
such gory tales as that of Little Red
Riding Hood had on their prototypes
one hundred years ago, Dr. David
Snedden, professor emeritus of Education at Columbia University told a
student audience at the University
of California at Los Angeles summer
session today.
“Movies do not affect children in
the same way they do adults,” Dr.
Snedden said. “They realize they
are for the nonce in a world of make
believe and treat it as such. They
shed impressions of -horror like the
proverbial water on a duck’s iback.
Little Red Riding Hood’s story, first
read by the children of a hundred
years ago is, when analyzed, a quite
terrible tale, but it has never affected the minds of children to whom it
was told. :
“Given .1,000 children from one
t¥pe of home, and 1,000 from a
diverse type of home, show them the
same, motion; -pictures:‘for “a “given
period, and you find tha ‘#either
grotip has been affected by the specjfic experience to any appreciable degree.
“When you come to the type of
child who goes to the movies three
times a week, you undoubtedly find
that what they have seen influences
them to some degree, but how much
of this is due to the pictures and
how much due to inheritance from
the type of parent which permits
such attendance is, to say the least,
debatable,’ the U. C. L. ‘A. lecturer
Said.
DRIVERS LICENSE
LAWS CHANGED
Various changes in laws relating
to drivers’ licenses were enacted at
the recent session of the state legislature and will become effective
August 27 following the signing of
the measures by Governor Merriam.
A review of the principal changes
was contained in a report today by
the California State Automobile as‘sociation as follows:
The present two-year renewal period for drivers’ licenses is increased
to four years. Provision is made for
a new. type of license which will
probably be a. photostatic: copy of
the application, reduced in size to
that of the present license form. The
temporary driver’s license period is
extended from 30 days to 60 days.
Chauffeurs’ licenses will hereafter
expife on March 31 each year and
chauffeurs’ badges will be replaced
by a certificate. Q
The same penalty of up to $1,000
fine or a year in jail, or both, for
operating a vehicle after a license
has been suspended, is applied to a
person who has been refused a licens eand continues ito drive,
Probattionary licenses for first offenders guilty of misdemeanor drunk
driving are provided. The probationary license is not ‘available to those
convicted of felony drunk driving,
where accident and injury has occurred. The-term of the probation‘. ary license is one year, with restoraExalted Ruler.
