WRONG DEPARTMENT

HUNTINGTON, w. Va. -P)-
Servicemen are regular blood
donors at the Huntington Regional
Blood Center. So nothing more was
thought when a member of the
armed services entered the center.
Without asking unnecessary
questions, Red Cross operators
took the serviceman's name, tenn
perature, pulse, medical history
and other information.
Just before being taken into the
blood donating room, the bewild-
cred serviceman asked, Does a
guy have to go through all this
just to get a Red Cross loan?"

worried" a detective said to his
partner outside a room where their
17-year-Old prisoner sat.
IF we keep with him he's going
to clear up a lot of stolen auto
mobile cases." the partner agreed.
The officers re-entered the room
with added vigOr to grill their
prisoner. They found him sound
asleep.

if Cincinnati could provide such

1t is difficult to predict when

Cries of the dead and dying will

And the Schor faction will emerge

What the Democrats will do in
such situation is also an in
definite factor, but they will de-

oil on the already simmering
fires. A real Schor-Bliss fight
could lead to a weakening of the

Modern Farm Is
Big Fire Hazard

Todays farm has all the fire
hazards of a machine shop, fac
tory, gasoline station and paint
shop combined!
That fact was emphasized by the
National Board of Fire Under
writers in warning issued in con-
nection with Spring Cleanup ac-
tivities directed toward bringing
about more fire-safe community.
Today's mechanized farm, the
warning stated, makes wide use of
gasoline-operated machinery and
electrical equipment, all of which
have created many new fire haz-
ards that must be safeguarded
against by the farmer and his en-
ployees.
In addition, it was emphasized
that farm fires frequently result in
almost total loss.
Unlike buildings in urban areas
where fire projections and water
supplies are adequate, those in
farm areas are often completely
destroyed when they catch fire"

derWrlterS explained.

Seedlings Available
From State For PLANT
Ohio" Reforestation

COLUMBUS, O.-Probable ina
bllity of the Division of Forestry
OF Ohio's Department of Natural
resources to be able to supply the
tremendous demand for planting
stock this Spring has long loomed
as an obstacle standing in the way
OF Ohlos all-out Sesquicentennial
Plant Ohio" program which has
a goal of 25 million trees. A month
ago, Mr.. 0. A. Alderman, chief of
the Division of Forestry, reported
that although the production at the
two state nurseries had been step
ped up to nearly eight million for
1883, orders then on hand had
practically exhausted the entire
output.
However, the Division of Fores-
try made a more encouraging re-
port advising that inspected and
choice seedlings for reforestation
were being purchased from state
owned nurseries in several of
Ohio's neighboring states for re-
sale in Ohio through the Division
of Forestry. This stock includes
