tion probably could not have
grown and remained united Available
without postal communi-
cation,
THEN: The first indication
of an American postal system
appeared in 1639. In that
year, the Massachusetts col-
ony gave Richard Fairbanks
permission to receive and dis-
patch ship marl at his home in
Boston. He was paid one cent
for every letter he handled.
The Boston Post Road was so
named because of the postal
system begun along it in 1672.
Benjamin Franklin was the
first great name in American
postal service, as co-deputy
postmaster general of the col-
onies from 1753 to 1774.
Another Founding Father,
George Washington, helped in
surveying post routes to
speed the mails.
The following information iS part
of an educational series of articles .
provided by the Drug Awareness
Council of the Benevolent and
Protective Order of the Elks.
Article V
MARIJUANA USE AND DRIVING
Use of marijuana is having an
effect on traffic safety, creating a
potential for serious consequences
on the highway. For example, a
California study indicated that 25
percent of those arrested for un-
safe driving were found to be under
the influence of marijuana.
Studies reported by the American
Council for Drug Education have
found that marijuana users exper-
ience a decreased awareness of
themselves and of the environ-
ment around them for three to five
hours after using the drug.
Other side effects of marijuana
can include a distorted sense of
time, inability to judge distances
and speed, reduced peripheral vis-
ion, impaired immediate memory,
lack of coordination and sleepin-
ess - all of which can create driving
hazards.
Marijuana use among the nation's
young, coupled with the relative lack
of driving experience of these
drivers, indicates a potential for
increased accidents and fatalities on
U.S. h!ghways and city streets.
Mr. Edward Bumgarner, Exec-
utive Secretary of the State Soil

ounced that applications are being

tion can be obtained from the State
