FIRE PREVENTION WEEK

Fire Prevention Week is here. What
are you going to do about it?
If you are short-sighted, you will do
nothing. If you have any interest in pro-
tecting your property and your family's
lives, you will use Fire Prevention Week
as an occasion for taking the simple, es-
sential measures that usually suffice to
make homes and places of business safe
from the most common and dangerous fire
hazards
Fire Prevention Week is not designed
to sell anything. 1t is designed to serve
to conserve-to protect. During the Week
insurance companies, civic bodies, fire ex-
perts and public officials will use the
radio newspapers, displays and printed
literature in an effort to make you think
and to make you act.
In the average home grave hazards
exist of which the owner knows nothing
Ignorance, as we'll as carelessness, is a
prolific source of destructive fire.
The simplest and most easily cor
rected causes are responsible for the great
bulk of fires in dwellings,. A slight fault
in heating plant may devastate home.
Accommodations of papers, clothes, furni-
ture and other odds and ends require only
a spark to burst into flame. Improperly
stored fluids such as gasoline, benzine and
kerosene are constant menace. Amateur
repairs of electric appliances and light
cords cause millions of dollars loss an
nually. Paint or oiI-soaked rags are often
the cause of spontaneous combustion. An
improperly protected hot electric iron, or
cigaret ashes invite fires.
1t costs you nothing to eliminate these
hazards, and takes little time. That small
effort may save you thousands of dollars
and infinitely more important, save a
life. Fire Prevention Week was in
augurated to serve you. Make the most
of it.

TIMES HAVE CHANGED

What American regard as natural and
proper in the year 1887 was not so re-
garded quarter of a century ago.
Take for example the costume worn
by women in public swimming places this
past summer. Can any reader imagine
what would have been thought of mice,
respectable girl wearing such synco-
pated suggestion of bathing suit in
1912?
The freedom of women in this respect
in the United States is not general through
out the world. For example, the yelled
women of Yugoslavia, we are told. are nc
longer denied the privilege of bathing in
public swimming pools but have been
warned by their Moslem church authori-
ties that they must keep their faces veiled
and wear bathing suits that reach below
the knees
