(YT cmiwr
says: '
By CHIEF W. C. THOMPSON
Every business or profession
has its “trade journals” and fire
fighting is no exception. One of
the best in our field is “Fire En
gineering,” a magazine that has
been published continuously since
1877. Its technical sections are a
real help to every chief. They
keep us up to date on new de
velopments and they show us how
to do better jobs with the equip
ment we have.
There is also a department
called “The Watchdesk.” It’s pack
ed with human interest items,
most of them sent in by readers,
and they seem to prove that
there’s a lighter side as well as a
grim side to this business of fire
fighting.
In a recent issue, for example,
there’s a story of the farmer
whose hens warned him that his
car was on fire by tapping their
beaks on a steel pipe that ran from
the hen house to the farm house!
There's also a report on the Hook
and Ladder Company in one New
Jersey community which has been
unable to respond to several fires
because each time it was discov
ered that some one had stolen
the gasoline out of the truck—and
the firehouse is right next to po
lice headquarters! ‘
The best story, however, seems
to be the one about the Missouri
doctor, a vetinarian, who noticed
smoke coming from the attic of a
house as he was driving by. He
grabbed a ladder, broke an attic
window and climbed in. The
space was too cramped for action,
however, and the doctor couldn’t
get near the fire. But he had an
inspiration. He raced to his car
and got the two-way stomach
pump, equipped with a tube and
12 feet of “hose,” that he nor
mally used only on animals. The
tube was thrust into a bucket of
water that was constantly refilled.
A passing highway patrolman took
the other “hose” up the ladder.
The doctor pumped. And the re
sult was a small but effective 15-
foot stream that was directed
through the attic window and ex
tinguished the fire with small
damage.
Maybe there’s a inoral to this
story. And perheps the moral is
that if you don’t have a stomach
pump handy, you had better get
to know a vetinarian pretty soon—
or, better yet, invest in some de
pendable Underwriters’-approved
fire protection equipment.
Your fire department will be
glad to recommend the proper
type of equipment for your parti
cular hazards.

said the governor has been “shak

McLennan said “he should be

SEA LION SALESMAN
HERMOSA BEACH, Calif. —
(AP)—She sells sea lions by the
sea shore. Her husband, who
trains them, took an act on tour
leaving half a dozen or so behind.
“I either had to go into busi~
ness with the lions or have them
eat me out of house and home,”
Mrs. Kay L. Snow explained. “I
decided to sell them. But when
I started disposing of them I be
gan getting more requests than I
could fill.” She found a fisherman
who agreed to hunt them for her
and now has an assured supply.
Most of her orders are from zoos.
Pepper accounts for about 55
per cent of the world spice crops.

GOVERNOR
Local Scout Receives Funds For
Trip To National Scout Jamboree
In answer to a recent appeal made for aid in sending an addi
tional Boy Scout from the Athens area to the National Scout
Jamboree at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, donatipns have poured
in and now there will be one more happy Scout on the special all-
Scout train leaving for Washington Saturday afternoon.
The additional Scout, who is from one of the smaller churches in
Athens, won the trip, and later it was discovered that funds were
not sufficient to send him, An appeal was made for aid in the sit
uation and a total amount of sll2 was raised. This amount will
abundantly pay for his trip, uniforms, and other necessary items.
The jamboree funds were raised by Georgia Power Company
employees, A, T. Elrod, Mrs. H. B. Shy, Mrs, Earl Braswell, the
Order of B’nai B’rith, and three anonymous gifts.
