KITES AND BOYS

This is kite flying time and
you are following an age-old
custom when you toss yours
into the wind.
The gustry winds Of March
make kite perform all sorts
of antics, and you know it
takes a boys full attention to
make success of it at any
time, but especially in a gusty
wind.
Thus he might forget to
KEEP AWAY FROM WIRES
of all kinds.
However, if your kite should
get into wires, do not pull the
string-you might get hurt
or might get the wires togeth-
er and cause trouble. Phone
the Power Company and a
lineman will come and take
care of the matter.
And another thing or two
for you to remember is: New
er use wire or tinsel cord for
a string, and do not fly a kite
in the rain, for a wet string
is a conductor of electricity.

! ERespiratOr

NEWARK is far behind
the times in the matter
Of public life saving equip
fflent and the recent action
of the Newark Industrial
Safety Council toward the
purchase of a modern arti-
ficial respirator should have
the hearty endorsement of
every service organization
and individual in Newark.
AS was pointed out in an
article in last weeks Lead
er the only equipment of
this type in the city is the
IL year old inhalator which
is kept at the Central fire
station, and it is old and
odtmoded.
The city council has been
approached by representa-
tives from the Safety coun-
Gil and has promised to see
what could be done in the
matter of financing it's pur-
chase. If this body is not
able at this time to help in
the matter, by no means
should the project be drop
ped. We feel certain that
renough support can be mus
tered through various serv-
ice clubs and business es-
tablishments to make it
possible to purchase a res
pirator.
1t is impossible to esti-
mate the value of a human
life. The monetary outlay
would be as nothing if but
one tragic and untimely
death is averted by having
sach apparatus available
fdr instant use.

Home

FROM the time of the
stone age and the cave
man, up through ancient
and medieval times until
the present there has al
ways been foremost in the
mind of the family man the
thought of Home-security
and comfort, protection
fRom the beasts of the jun
gle, the rigors of the ele-
sments-Home, the center
of family life.
AS spring approaches
there is a natural tendency
on the part of human be-
ings to think in terms of
building. Building for flu
ture security, that loved
ones may have a roof over
their heads and a mutual
meeting place. Where Moth
er. Dad and the children
!. cJ kgather together at meal
} time, where the youngsters
can frolic amid the flowers
of the yard, and Mother has
everything "just as she
wants it."
In order to assist in the
realization of this natural
yearning the Newark Lead
er has embarked upon one
o.. the most complete and
! comprehensive promotional
programs for BODYBUILDING
in it's '::.fn.y. In this
movement local business
firms and contractors are
cooperating in offering a
service to individuals inter-
ested in new and better
housing. 1t is their earnest
desire to aid in helping
Ito attain security and COM
fort for you and your fam
Aily. You will find them
glad to offer suggestions
/ and help in every possible
/ way that you too might
have a Home of your own.

State Approved
$4,000 Relief
Bond Issue Is

The $4,000 bond issue asked
by the city council against de-
linquent taxes, was approved
last week by the state tax body.
