OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

The fire last Thursday night fur
nished good example Of the need for
better housing facilities for the city's
fire fighting equipment stated Fire
Chief Hoffman to the Western News
this week. ut was sub-zero weather
and after the fire had been put out
and the boys started to reload the
hose ONTO the trucks, couplings were
found frozen tight and the hose itself
was soon frozen. 1t was hard and
difficult enough job to get the hose
back onto the trucks, but later after
reaching the fire house, it was neces-
sary to unload that frozen hose and
spread it wherever room could be
found-around in the council room and
elsewhere. The boys must have put in
a couple Of hours or more getting that
hose SO placed as to properly dry out
and still be out Of the way Of the
equipment and what dry hose we had
left in case another fire should break

THE SCHOOL AS A SOCIAL CENTER

Years ago when the great Northwest
was being settled the pioneers had an
old fashioned meeting place, commonly
known as the community hall.
Now fairly good sized towns have
sprung up and the old community hall
has passed with the rest Of the pioneers.
Instead Of this we now have the
school to meet other people and to en-
JOY social entertainments derived from
the school 1t has regular entertain
ments and almost always the public is
invited.
This practice was begun a few years
ago but it is the finest thing to happen
in any town of this size. The public
pay for this institution and the school
realizes it, therefore it is doing every
thing it can to please its hackers.
The public, especially the mothers
and fathers, are invited to inspect
the Libby schools and see for them
selves the training their children are
getting.

Silver Anniversary
During 1881 Sale
Much Progress Being Made in Combat
inx tuberculosis From Pennies
Received in This Way.

Thanksgiving day and will continue
until Christmas day, says Mrs. Alice
Farris, chairman Of the seal sale for
Libby.
The design adopted for the 18th an
nual campaign is in keeping with the
holiday season. The traditional green
and red predominant. The scene shows
a merry party of Christmas celebrants,
going over to grandmother's perhaps,
in coach drawn by four prancing
horses. Christmas Greetings-1931' is
the salutation and the doubled barred
red cross Of the tuberculosis movement
identifies this newcomer as the latest
member of a distinguished and grow
ing family. The seal is very "Dickensy
and Christmasey.'
The Christmas Seal Sale is not a
charity. 1t should not be regarded as
such. II is a sane investment open to
all by reason of the very small sum
required to acquire stock-one cent.
The people of Montana pay taxes to
support their schools; they pay to sup
port police officers to protect their
property and their rights. In buying
Christmas seals they should not be
led to feel they 7s contributing TO
charity. They are investing in health
In the schools their children are
given book knowledge. Through the
Christmas Seals, they are given in the
schools and elsewhere, health educa-
ton, which is the correct and the COM
plete complement Of the other.
An underdeveloped body and an
overdeveloped brain are poor combi-
nation. This combination is prevented
by the purchase of Christmas seals
which promotes the right and sane
union of health and mentality.
In paying police officer, one pro-
tects personal property and rights OF
conduct. In buying Christmas seals,
one protects the health which Is more
precious and subjected to more hazards.
If one is perfectly we'll, he is keep
ing himself SO by buying Christmas
seals. If he is i'll, he is giving himself
an opportunity for health. He is ex-
tending to his neighbors either the
chance for health or the immunity
from disease. AS public minded citi-
zen he is raising the moral and mental
interests Of his community by health
promotion. These facts should be con-
sidered by every purchaser OF seals
