FIRE PREVENTION WEEK

Through out the entire country Fire Prevention Week will be ob- served for the next seven days. The week has been designated officially iv President Coolidge for education al activities to reduce preyentab!a ass by fire. The second week in October is always chosen as Fire Prevention Week because it mark : the anniversary of the great Chicag3 ire of 1871.
 A comprehensive program has been arranged for local participa- ton. Emphasis will be laid on thu fact that most fires can be eliminated and that a vast majority of those which do start can be controlled with minimum of loss if precaut lonary measures arc taken before hand.
 Last year the total fire loss of the nation was approximately $478,000. 900 as compared with $560,000,0O0 in 1926 and thus far this year there has been a further decrease as com pared with the corresponding period of 1927. The National Fire Waste Council and the Insurance Depart mant of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, which are joint ly conducting a nationwide fire pre- vcntion program, believe that thru continued coordinated effort further progress can be made. Americas fire losses are still far in excess of those sustained by European coun tries and a let-up in activity at this time would undOuptedly make the margin of difference even greater. In statement concerning the acti- vities to be carried on during Fire Prevention Week, the Chamber If Commerce of the United States says:
 Through the observance of Fire Prevention Week, every community has an unusual opportunity to bene- fit itself and he country as a whole. If he fire waste of the country is to be further reduced, each community rl,ist make it's contribution, as the total losses of the nation are the aggregate of losses sustained in e, 4ry city, town and village in the entire country.

FLAPJACKs WITHOUT EGGS

Yer, MT. Editor, Tn writing to .,o if you can't help me out in a littla matter what has come up. You see, my stomach has went back on me lately and the doc says there's q whole lot of things I can't eat, and one of them is eggs. So that lets tout the ham-and for breakfast, which I used to lean on pretty heavy, and the wife asked me what would like to have in place of 'em
 "Flapjacks," I says.
 "You mean griddle cakes" sha sa a.s.
 Call 'em anything you want" I says, "only the right name is flap jocks"
 So she went and looked in the Icookbook for to see how to make them and then she come back "You co1't have no farjacks," she says,
 Why? I says.
 Because they got eggs in them, she says. Look"
 So I looked, and sure enough they has eggs in them. All except buckwheat cakes, but I wouldn't give a nickel for buckwheat cake. So we ain't had no fapjacks yet and to hear my wife talk you would think she was doing me favor.
 Now, MT. Editor, you cant fool me that easy. I know you can have fapjacks without eggs, because when I was in the army we had them, and if they would have found 2 egg within fifty miles of where We wao they would of sent it home for a souvenir. Specially I remem- ber one time. the day after the arm istice, when we was sent up to clean up a P. c. about ten mile north of the NolleviIle Farm. We wasn't no sooner there when Corpl.

 ''Listen," I says, ''Ycu let me off this here shovel work and I'll rustic the fapjacks

PAIR OF VIOLINS
John Morse, Veteran Fiddler" !" Makes 223rd and 224th ln-
 struments.

John A. Morse, South Main street, veteran maker of violins, was exhibit ing two new instruments, Tuesday, that had just been finished in his workshop. They were of beautiful dark luster. one of birdseye maple, and highly finished.
 When Mir. Morse was asked how many violins he has made he said that these two instruments were his 223rd and gath in his forty-two years of violin making.
 Mfr. Morse said that it takes years of experience to make good violins. He told of his early efforts. His in- struments at first, while of excellent tone when played in' the quiet of the home. were found wanting when used for an orchestral part. The present day jazz has also called for a violin that will not be swallowed up by the more noisy instruments. It is ex- perience that makes the good violin maker and the good violin, according to Mir. Morse, and in no other way can good instruments be produced. Ills nearly half century as a maker oi lviolins leads him to say that he is Will ing to compare the instruments he makes with those made in any country | of the world.
