Put Gods law in the heart and
the whole man is right. This is
the place in which the Law of God
should reside, because then It lies,
like the tables Of stone in the Ark,
in the place appointed for it. In
the head it is a puzzle to man; on
the back it is a burden to those
who would carry it; in the heart it
is a blessing which upholds man
as he makes his way through life.
All of us are moving along the
great highway of Gods providence
and grace when we keep the way
of His law. Let each one find out
for himself the great joy which
resides in the heart of him who
follows the will Of God. Our US

I believe in paying taxes, believe in being sane,

Tucson Wins In Fire Prevention Contest

An international committee of judges has pro
claimed Tucson first and Yuma second in all Arizona
for effectiveness in fire prevention work
These awards were made in the contest conduct
ed by the National Board Of Fire Underwriters, the
winners being selected from detailed reports of Fire
Prevention Week activities sent in by the various
cities.
The records indicate that there was large in
crease in the number Of cities reporting and great
improvement in the effectiveness Of the campaign
conducted. EE zft
Of the cities reporting in the United States, n
suffered no loss by fire during the week of October
End to 9Th, 76 escaped damage from burning during
Fire Prevention Week. October 9th to 18th, and g
reported no fire loss throughout the following week
This is total Of 232 fireless weeks covered by the
period Of this special fire prevention observance The
fire loss in the ctiessubmitting such records ascom-
pared with the average weekly loss of the same cities
for the previous year, showed reduction OF 46 per
cent. So +4.eaz Il. .se&
These records augur well for the coming year. It
is the yearround effectiveness of cities and towns in
preventing fires that counts most The activities in
October give impetus to the campaign against fire
waste which must be waged continually Since lndlv-
iduals rarely think of their part in preventing
fires it is incumbent upon the civic organizations in
their communities to bring the matter to their atten
tion-not only in October but also at regular inter
walls during the year 49, d
