|. ALFRED FLEMING, who wrote
"Pupils Aren't Fireproof!' which
appears on this page, was clergy
man in Collinwood, Ohio. at the
time of the disastrous Lakeview
School FIRE.
He was passing by when the
school burst into flames. Rushing
over to help, he saw that while
children were coming out OF the
front door in perfect drill forma-
ton, others were dropping out
of the second story windows in
the rear. The exit door there was
still closed, and Fleming couldn't
bulge it. When he finally sue
ceeded in prying the door open,
a twelve-foot stack Of bodies was
piled up, packed so tightly that
he couldn't move them.
Fleming knew many of the
children who were caught there,
pleading for help - and when
the ordeal was over he had a
nervous breakdown. When he
recovered he gave up the minis
try and began to preach FIRE
prevention. He has been leading
that fight ever since, and is the
father of Fire Prevention Week.
If you are a parent of a school
child: be sure to read:
PUPILS AREN'T FIREPROoF!
HoRsEs and dogs and the open
country, with the sun overhead
and the wind in my face! | like
all outdoor things; swim, ride,
drive, shoot fairly we'll - though
never at living things - and love
life from daylight to dark. Hope
I'll ride favorite horse the morn
ing of the day | die at night. -.
That's the credo of a woman who
was raised on the Oklahoma
plains and has spent the most
recent years running a ranch in
California. A big-hearted love of
animals, people and the whole
round world breathes through all
her stories. You We read several of
Vingie Roe's tales in THIS WEEK,

OR. EUGENE CoLLIGAN, Presi-
dent of Hunter College in New
York City, tells about child who
was asked to write a composition
on Benjamin Franklin, with this
result:
"Benjamin Franklin was poor
boy. He went to Philadelphia to
live. He didn't have many clothes.
One day he walked down the
street and saw a pretty girl. She
smiled at him; he smiled at her.
Before long they were married
and he discovered electricity.'
Thomas ]. WATSON, president
of International Business Ma
chimes Corporation, tells this
story about a friend Of his and his
negro servant: One day recently
the friend asked Joe: "Do you
believe in prayer''
"Yas sir, boss" was the quick
reply.
"Do you say your prayers
every day.
'Y as sir, boss. certainly does.
"Well, Joe, does God answer
all your prayers?'
"Yas sir, boss. He answers one
wav or another"
Mr.. Watson thinks that we
shall soon find our way out of the
present labor fog, one way or
another.
EVERYBODY loves puppy
There is man down in Texas
who used this truth to better his
fortunes. Out Of a job and out Of
funds. he stood on busy high
way and held up a fuzzy puppy
in each hand. Cars stopped, and
he made sales. He found it good
business and is still carrying it
on. These are not registered,
bench show dogs. They are just
all-American pups. No questions
asked.
His puppy farm consists of
about thirty mother dogs, hard
atwork. He also buys any healthy
puppy offered him, and his stand
ard price is two bits. He carries
the puppies around in gaudilv
painted little cages on wheels.
Price for dog friend, - whatever
he can get - usually 81 or 81.
