Every year as the summer draws to a close, kidsacross the country return to school. Some ride the bus,others walk or ride their bikes, and some have theirparents drop them off. No matter what the mode oftransportation, kids need to be careful when traveling toand from school. Unfortunately, as the school year pro-gresses, many kids get caught up in other things andforget about safety, resulting in thousands of injuries,and in some cases, fatalities.

Don!t become a statistic. Take this School Safety Chal-lenge and refresh yourself on the basics.

You may not recognize the nameCecil B. DeMille, but if you like to watch movies, hisname is one you!ll want to remember. Born August 12,1881, Cecil B. DeMille is one of the greatest filmmakersof all time. Not only did he produce successful movies,like The Ten Commandments and Cleopatra, but hewas one of the few to survive the transition from silentto sound films.

The younger of two sons, Cecil was born into a theatri-cal family. His father, Henry, was a preacher who taughtEnglish at Columbia University and wrote plays in hisspare time. His mother, Mathilda, also wrote plays, andafter the death of her husband in 1893, opened aschool for girls in her home, and later, ran a successfulproduction company.

Cecil attended Pennsylvania Military College. Duringthe Spanish-American War, he left school and tried toenlist, but he was too young. Aware of Cecil!s interest inthe theater, his mother enrolled him in the Academy ofthe Dramatic Arts. There, Cecil followed in the footstepsof his brother, William, and tried his hand at acting andwriting. In 1900, Cecil made his debut on Broadway.

Cecil spent the next several years working at hismother!s production company and helping his brotherwrite plays. In 1913, Cecil formed his own companywith vaudeville musician Jess L. Lasky and glove sales-man Samuel Goldfish (who later changed his last nameto Goldwyn). The company was called the Jesse L.Lasky Feature Play Company, and in 1914, Cecilhelped direct its first film, The Squaw Man. The film wasa success, and Cecil became a major name in Holly-wood.

Before long, the Lasky Company grew and its namewas changed to Paramount. Cecil spent most of his ca-reer there, bridging the gap from silent to sound filmseasily and producing over 70 films. With his wife, Con-stance, he also helped raise four children, one of whom,Katherine, acted in many of his films. On January 21,1959, Cecil died at the age of 77.

We wereworried because it took him two hours to get me andShelby out.Your sister had a baby this morning but I haven't foundout what it is yet, so I don't know if you're an aunt or anuncle. If the baby is a girl, your sister is going to nameit after me, she's going to call it Mom.Uncle Pete fell in a whiskey vat last week. Some mantried to pull him out but he fought them off anddrowned. We had him cremated and he burned forthree days.Three of your friends went off a bridge in a pick-uptruck. Ralph was driving. He rolled down the windowand swam to safety.

On September 7, 1860, in Greenwich, New York, aunique person was born. For most of her life, AnnaMary Robertson Moses lived in a very ordinary way.When she was twelve years old, she left home to earnher living as a hired girl. All her life, she worked as afarm wife, helped her husband, Thomas, with a milkroute and raised her five children.

When Anna Moses was about 70 years old, though,she began to paint. She painted pictures of things sheremembered from her childhood. She also painted pic-tures of things she remembered from spending time inthe country. After a while, her paintings became veryfamous. Because she was so old when she began topaint, many people began to call Anna “Grandma.” Sotoday, Anna Mary Robertson Moses is known simplyas Grandma Moses!

Why was Grandma Moses unique? She was not afraidto try new things. Many people do not do new and dif-ferent things once they are grown up. Grandma Mosesbegan painting pictures—something she had neverdone before—with no formal training. People likeGrandma Moses! art is because it is simple. GrandmaMoses liked bright colors, and her cheerful memoriesand bright colors make her pictures fun to look at.

A penny saved is..........not much.

Born in Maryland in 1821, she escaped from slavery in the late 1840s and joined the abolitionist movement against slavery. Braving capture and death, she returned many times to the slave states and helped at least 300 slaves escape to freedom in the North. She served as a nurse, spy and scout for the Union forces during the Civil War and was buried with full military honors when she died in 1913.

She was active in the NAACP in Montgomery, Alabama, in the early 1950s. On Dec. 1, 1955, she refused to give up her bus seat to a white man, as required by law in Montgomery. Her arrest and $14 fine served as a catalyst that sparked the civil rights movement in the South. A successful boycott of the bus system catapulted both her and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. into the spotlight. She remained active in the struggle for equal rights after the boycott and received many honors over the years for her dedication and inspiration.

A multi-sport star in high school and college, he signed a contract with the Brooklyn Dodgers in August 1945. After playing in the minor leagues, he became the first black player in the major leagues in the modern era in April 1947. Named Rookie of the Year that season and the Most Valuable Player two years later, he endured taunts and death threats on and off the field. After retiring in 1957, he remained active in business and public affairs and received numerous honors, including being elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility. He died in 1972.

BillingA doctor and a lawyer were talking at a party.Their conversation was constantly interrupted by peo-ple describing their ailments and asking the doctor forfree medical advice.After an hour of this, the exasperated doctor askedthe lawyer, "What do you do to stop people from ask-ing you for legal advice when you're out of the of-fice?""I give it to them," replied the lawyer, "and then I sendthem a bill."The doctor was shocked, but agreed to give it a try.The next day, still feeling slightly guilty, the doctorprepared the bills.When he went to place them in his mailbox, he founda bill from the lawyer.
