WEEK FOR FIRE
PREVENTION
County Agent w. E. Tarbel
Urges All Farmers to Stop
Fires Before They Start
GIVES SOME ADVICE

This is the week when all fam
lilies are urged to stop fires before
they start, according to William E.
Tarbell, County Agent. Fires which
destroy valuable property and even
lives, are so often the cause of
careless things that people do, con-
tinues Mr.. Tarbell. The lighted
cigarette or match that is not quite
out when thrown away. Smoking
near inf1ammable materials like
oily rags, hay or gasoline storage.
Or fire may start from electric wir-
ing which may be improperly in
stalled, in need of repair or mis-
used. The electric iron left on when
answering the phone or that frayed
cord in the living room lamp that
you are going to fix but never seem
to get around to. Mr.. Tarbell also
urges that a housekeeping take
place in the attic and basement of
your home. An accumulation of
old papers, oily cloths, paints
varnishes, etc., makes wonderful
place for a fire to thrive. Now
with fires being started, chimneys
are another source of fire hazard
Have these inspected and cleaned
before long. Be sure the antennae
of your television set has not loos-
ened the mortar holding the bricks
Constant vibration can do this

These are only few of the haz-
ards that every family should be
conscious of according to Tarben,
not only during fire prevention
week, but all the year. 1t takes
but little time and no money to see
that fire precautions are. carried
out and it does mean greater peace
of mind to feel that the family is
safe.
In case fire does start, be pre-
pared with fire extinguishers in
both outbuildings and homes. Be
sure extinguishers are in good
working condition and filed. Have
fire fighting equipment like ladders,
rope, buckets, sand, ETC., collected
in one place where they can be
quickly found. And be sure the
telephone number of your local fire
department is handy where every
one can find it Immediately. 316
families in Kent County have been
working on a fire prevention pro-
gram this year sponsored by the
Delaware Safety Council and Ex-
tension Service. By request sever
al of these families are being visit
ed this week by member of the
local fire department who will
check on the fire precautions that
have been carried out. These fam
lilies realize that only by removing
these fire hazards can fire be pre-
vented and the home made safe.

What might have resulted in SER

allrned to the house in an effort to
locate the trouble, but was partial
1y overcome and manager to crawl

point to remember. Matches and
smoking caused 27.73 percent of all

and careless disposal of burning
cigarettes or amoldering matches

International DuteIine Adds
More Confusion to HEARINGS

international dateline crosser
broke in. .
"Mr. Chairman, wonder, fol
Qualification, isn't there one days
difference in there-isn't March
I24th here the 23d in Korea?"
"Or vice versa" said Gen. Mar
shall.
THAT way" Senator Knowland
said, zone day earlier-there
would have been one day earlier
in Korea, it would have been.
I'm other words, the 25th OF
June, here, was the 25th (sic) OF
June in Korea, the day that the
fighting broke out"

is demonstrated" Senator Wiley
said, "but we can demonstrate
that by some one who is an ex-
pert on it"
Gen. Marshall then took an
other whack at the problem. He
said:

ton, in the fine type at the tor
lof that statement of Gen. Mac
Arthur's on March oath that was
printed in the New York Times
and is dated, Tokyo, 25th OF
March"

cussion of the international date

understand it perfectly.
Oh, yes, one other remark by
Senator Wiley.
