Last Fall. a special committee,
consisting of Past Post Command
ers Paul j. Duphily and Clement
J. Nevins, Past State Commander
David S. Hugg and Association
Vice President James Christopher,
was appointed by Association
President Frank L. Hall to inves-
tigate possible ways of amortizing
Indebtedness and putting the Post
Home operation on profitable
basis. This committee, after in
vestigating several possibilities,
eventually recommended to the
Board of Directors that thought
be given to sub-dividing part of
the tract into building sites.
The directors subsequently look
ed further into this proposal and
found that quite few local peo-
pie, including many post members.
would be interested in purchasing
building sites on the high, well
drained tract, easily accessible to
the lake, highways and nearby
communities.
In compliance with Association
bylaws, attendance at Tuesdays
meeting and participation in the
proceedings will be limited to Blue
Hen Post members who have paid
their V.F.W. dues for the current
year. The special meeting of the
Association will be in lieu of the
post meeting which would ordin-
arily be held on this date. Asso-
citation President Frank L. Hall
will preside.
Quite a few special events are
planned for the Post Home dur
ing the next four weeks. On Fri
day, Feb. %, Mardi Gras Dance
will be held with ticket sale lin
tied to 60 costumed couples Dane
ing to the music of Floyd McGee
and Boys will be enjoyed from 6
p. m. until midnight Refreshments
and noise makers will be available
Arrangements for this event are
being completed by committee
consisting of Clement Nevins
Melvin Munson. James HolIeger,
Donald Currie, Robert Field, James
Christopher, Newton Brown and
Commander Harold r. Welch.
Plans are also being discussed
for a spaghetti dinner. with Ladies
Auxiliary members as guests.
March 18th has been tentatively
selected for this latter event.

Here's some advice that might
appear on the emergency list:
1. Location of fuses. label fuses
at box with indelible ink showing
area they affect)
2. III a storm is a threat to lights
and power, fill bathtub with water
wash dirty clothes and dirty dishes
at once, fill up bottles, pals and
jars with water.
3. Keep a fire extinguisher in a
handy place, and leave instructions
on how to use it. Water should
never be used on fat or oil fires.
A. Attach electric cords to appli-
ances before plugging them in the
wall and never leave a cord dang
ling from the wall outlett. Make
sure plug attachment has no chance
of coming in contact with water
around sinks, for instance.
5. Stress that in case of fire, the
first thought should be for the oc-
cupants of the house. Tell the
housewife how to escape from vari-
Gus rooms of the house in case
trapped by fire.
6. Greasy paper or oil rags
thrown in the fireplace can cause
a chimney fire. Use only twigs or
kindling to help start fires.
z. Instructions where flashlights
and candles may be found in emer-
gencies.
s. Make sure that fire tools for
the chimney are long enough to
reach the damper, particularly in
case of fire started mistakenly.
8. If floods occur in the cellar, do
not enter it or attempt to turn on
the light while the water is high.
10. Telephone numbers of the
plumber, electrician, fuel and power
companies, and other emergency
numbers such as fire and police.
