Call the fire department, try to isolate the fire by closing, doors and windows in the immediate vici­ nity, then try to extinguish the fire with fire extinguishers, garden hose or any available equipment.

O. I hirer. Tlie new red stop-sign will firntunlly replace nearly 30,000 yellow stop signs on the rural state highway system. "The yellow stop signs are still legal nnd in force," said Llnzell, "and they will be used until the Highway Department can replace them gradually. To replace them all Immediately would entail pro­ hibitive cost," The Highway Department’s De­ puty Director of Operations, O. W. MteCaughey said that the journal entry, which he presented to Lin- zeii for signature, specified that the minimum size of the sign shall be a 24 by 24 Inch octagon, with the word stop at least onc-thlrd the height of the sign face. On rural state highways a larger, 30 by 30 inch, sign Is specified.

This is ' ■called gerontology, the study of ; , old age , Many cases of elderly people ' who lack a sense of general well- i being—who feel “old” and spirit- I less—can be traced to a deficiency ; in certain hormones, the life-regu- ! taring chemicals produced by the , body's glands, , j To help people suffering from this deficiency, a hormone drug, j called Combandrin, has been de- i _ velopcd. This drug, containing two \ important hormones, acts to help • rebuild tissue and promote a sense j of fitness.

Among the state officers present were: Thomas A, Calhoun, President: Warren M. Taylor, Vice president; Rev, Chandler Crawford, Chaplain; and Randolph F. Sellers, District Representative. It was brought out that there are only 4 members In Greene County at tlie present time; 2 in Xenia, and 2 In Yellow Springs. There are quite a few eligible.", in tho County. There are 3 active cliapters of the Daughters of the American Revolution and any male oyer 18 years of age who has a blood rela­ tive In this organization is eligible It Is also clnimed that there are more revolutionary war veterans burled in Ohio than any other state. Few people seem Xo have heard of tlie S.A.R. although It is older Mian the D.A.R. As a matter of fact the organzatlon of the D.AFt. was originally copied from the S.A.R. The S.A.R. Is not a secret organiza­ tion and its purpose can best be de­ scribed by quoting the official Policy: "Wo undertake the responsibility of protecting the Institutions of Government established by our forefathers and to guard our con­ stitution and B1Hof Rights from en- roachment from any source. We believe in a democracy In a repub­ lic and that our way of life and our liberty are worth protecting and preserving. To this end we pledge our fortunes and our sacred honor.” The S.A.R, also believes that he who has no respect and reverence for the work of his forefathers auto­ matically forfeits the right for such reverence and respect from his posterity. Tho SA.R. has supported military prcpnrdncss for 60 years. It has supported a post war plan to settle international disputes without re­ sorting to war, and without unduly yielding our sovereignty. Tlie S.A.R. has worked with the F.B.l. and other government agencies in fight­ ing subversion. It haH furnished material for education in construc­ tive citizenship. I t is teaching youth to vote intelligently and to disregard fleeting and unsound radicalism. Tlie S.A.R. established constitution Day (September 17). It inaugurated Flag Day (June 14), It establshed Young Citizens Day, now known as I am an American Day. It awards medals for outstanding work in R.O.T.C. and Good Citizenship medals to students In grammar and high schools. The list of distinguish­ ed men who arc and have been members of the organization is long. Seven presidents including president Eisenhower, either are or have been members, Mr. Randolph E. Sellers, 1213 Hayward Ave., Cincinnati 26, has offered to furnish further Infor­ mation about the S.AJl. to anyone desiring it. FARM P a in ts App liances STORE HOURS — 8:00 a.m, te 0:00 pj*.
