Music Enjoyment
Is For All Of Us
NOU don't have to know music

NOU don't have to know music
i TO enjoy il.
IF you are at all sensitive TO the
lift of art you can enjoy music re-
gardless whether you can distin-
guish a "ritornello" from recap
.tulation", according to George
Marek in his article titled, "Sidling
Up to Music" which appears in Good
Housekeeping's February issue.
Marek writes, that music tis an
enjoyment in many ways easier to
obtain and more lasting than the
enjoyment of other arts. 1t is easier
to obtain and more lasting be ,ause
music requires no special knowledge
of backgrounds or history or Gus
toms and because most of it can be
heard by monograph. 1t is more last
ing because great music not only
permits but requires repetition; the
familiar becomes the favorites.
In the initial approach to music,
Marek suggests, that one skip pro-
gram notes and commentators in
favor of just plain Listening.

A Safety Measure

The stop-lights, placed on
either side of the Fire Hall by
Town Council, at the request
of the members of the Cit
liens Hose Company, will
mean much toward increased
safety in this town, and will
add to the efficiency with
which our volunteer fremen
carry out their duties. The
fact that a majority of the
firemen plan to take the first
aid course, sponsored by them,
is most commendable, partic-
ularly with the formation Of a
Smyrna First Aid Crew in
mind. Emergencies or disas-
ter are always lessened Ey

Faced with price-ruining surplus
es Of wheat, farmers throughout
the nation who produce this COM
modify will vote on wheat market
ing quotas in a national referen-
dunn scheduled for May 81. Wheat
is a crop for 1000 Delaware farm
ers who will voice their decisions
on the marketing quota questions
through the county Agricultural
Adjustment Administration COM
mittees.
A few years ago the situation re
sulting from plenty of wheat and
not 50 many markets would have
meant Accent wheat. But not to-
day. Last year farmers through
out the land used the Agricultural
Administration farm
program to get an average return
of 80 cents per bushel for their

abroad threatens to cause a drastic
price collapse unless some market.
ing adjustment is made.
The use of marketing quotas
rests entirely with farmers. Two
thirds of all farmers voting in 6
national referendum must give
their approval before wheat mar
keting quotas are put into opera
ton.
If the wheat marketing quotas
are voted favorably by majority
of farmers, surplus wheat above
the production from acreage allot-
ments will be kept off the market
will be held back until some time
when it is needed. Under quotas
the farmer who has seeded within
his acreage allotment can sell all of
the wheat he raises without pen
atty, and can put this wheat under
Government loan at the full rate.

Annual Auto Fire Toll
Exceeds Million Mark

MOTORISTS will be shocked
lN to learn that proven records

automobile fires every year.
4 Only a more widespread use of

Kearney writes in the May issue OF
Cosmopolitan magazine. Naturally
every sensible motorist has fire in
surance. But it goes without saying
that if your car catches fire 40 miles
or 45O miles away from home,
your policy won't cover the vexatlon,
inconvenience, and expense of get
ting back. On top of all this there
in the fire hazard.
Fire Commissioner William A.
Reilly of Boston, Kearney says, re-
Gently proposed that automobile
manufacturers equip all cars with
extinguishers. Commissioner Reilly
reveals that IL percent of all Boston
alarms are for automobile fires
independent studies in Buffalo,
Albany, Newark and Evansville con-
firm this ratio and claim that 20
percent of these automobile fires
occur in private cars.
