SEVEN BURNED A short time ago,, in a farm home near Danville, Iowa, a large family was asleep. At about four in the morning a fire of undetermined origin broke out. No fire equipment was availrble. Three children and the parents escaped. Seven children, who were sleeping in -upstairs bedrooms, perished. The flames spread so rapidly rapid-ly that these children could not be reached by the time the others awakened. What happened near Danville has happened, in lesser or greater degree, in thousands of American communities. communi-ties. At the moment you read this, it is probable that fires which will destroy life are in progress. Today fire may strike a long way off from, you. Tomorrow it may come home. A very large percentage of dwelling fires are the result of dangerous heating equipment, particularly old stoves and open fireplaces. Open flame burners account for an appalling number of deaths by asphyxiation. Then, ?oing down the list, electrical and smoking hazards take their grim toll. The seven children who were cremated alive near Danville are now statistics -- tragic evidence of fire's insatiable appetite. A few weeks ago they were alive and ,- happy. How many more lives will fire destroy before we learn that fire precaution is the duty of every family, every owr.er'fc business and every worker? Now is the time when every Orem citizen should make a thorough investigation of his home, work houses and place of business with an eye towards eliminating the conditions which invite the finger of fire. Insurance cannot replace lives, nor can regret rebuild a f ire-wreeked home. Act now! clear -Thinking must Be -Teamed ui ambition to successful.

Semit: How important are drinking fountains to a business section of a municipality? From the time of Constantino when Rome boasted of 1212 public pub-lic fountains, down to the present pres-ent day, many cities, towns, and villages have provided water fountains In their shopping districts dis-tricts for the healthful drinking convenience of its citizenry. Unfortunately, Un-fortunately, there are also many large and small cities which are virtually devoid of these facilities. facili-ties. Utah cities, without reservation, reserva-tion, are vastly superior in supplying sup-plying these conveniences for their residents than the majority of our eastern metropolises. When one stops to think about the throngs of people on an average aver-age summer day treading down Broad Street in Philadelphia, High Street in Columbus, or Flagler Street in Miami with not a drinking fountain to be seen in four squares in any dir- ection one wonders how a Conscientious public health dept. official can still sleep at night. Columbus, Ohio, for example, with a populatioif of nearly 400,-000, 400,-000, had one drinking foui.tnin operating on the State Capitol grounds until two years ago when it was sealed. Presently there is not a drinking fountain in the entire business district. The hotels in this city either have their drinking fountains located in the basement or on the mezzanine floor. Drugstore soda fountains are jammed four deep in the summertime with clamoring clamor-ing thirsty patrons. Surely a public pub-lic health department ould bring pressure to bear to correct cor-rect this injustice. Expense, ot course, is a lactor, out armKing water should have one of the top priorities in any city budget. It is hoped that this life-sus-tainfng and healthful apparatus will be adequately installed in the business district of our city of tomorrow, Orem! Most people are habitually insufficient in-sufficient in the water consumption. consump-tion. A healthy adult should drink three pints of water per day in addition to that contained contain-ed in foods. Water, health experts ex-perts say, should be consumed in moderate amounts frequently throughout the day and not consumed con-sumed in large quantities at any one time. Drinking fountains are one of the best answers to this need. Without them, people are prone to drink water only in response re-sponse to thirst instead of drinking drink-ing a reasonable amount in absence ab-sence of thirst. The drinking water supply in FIVE YEARS AGO THIS WEEK From the files of the Orem-Geneva Times The sum of $1450 was collected collec-ted In the Red Cross drive, including in-cluding a $50.00 donation of the Orem Lions club, announced J. E. Pinegar. chairman of the drive. Last minute obstacles arose which necessitated postponing the opening of the Orem Trailer Park. LaMar Maycock was appointed ap-pointed manager, directing a staff of 11 people. "Let's Bring New Glory to Old Glory," a patriotic concert in two acts was presented at Scera by the Lincoln high school Music department under the direction dir-ection of E. B. Terry. The script was written by Nina Lamb, Evelyn Eve-lyn Park, Alia Rappleye, Elizabeth Eliza-beth Gordon. Helen Bunnell, Fern Pyne, Dona Hafen, Dorothy Doro-thy Williams and Beth Cordner. Final approval was secured from the FHA for an addition of 107 trailer units to be added to those already approved and being be-ing installed at the Orem Trailer Trail-er Park. A program was set up at Lin coln high school for students to obtain credit for work experi ence gained from working on the farm during regular school hours in order to relieve the shortage of farm labor. VINEYARD VIEWS By Malicent Wells My, how time flies; it's just six years this March since we Vineyard people had a merry-go- round that really made history. As we read so often of the Great Steel Plant in Orem, and of Am erican Fork being the Steel Cen ter of the west, Pleasant Grove makes drastic claims, and then, of course. Provo is really the Steel City of America, we folks in Vineyard just sit by and smile. But we above all people of Utah know just where the Steel Plant is located. We don t have to make extravagant claims, or hunt a map to locate it, for it was we people, along with more than 350 dairy cows, who moved over to let them build here on 1600 acres of choice land. Now these lovely buildings and lawns and smoke stacks (which aren't so lovely) adorn our fair Vineyard and we alone can lay claim to the location. But, of course, the plant belongs to the United States Steel Co. I guess we will have to remind our neighbors every so often where it is located, lo-cated, in case they forget. And don't think Vineyard isn't growing grow-ing but most of us are dairy and poultry farmers here, and go quietly along, earning a living liv-ing by the sweat of our brows. We're a contented and happy lot, and still produce much in the line of milk, eggs, sugar beets. onions, potatoes, tomatoes, cel ery, grain, etc. We know that even in fast growing communi ties the people have to eat. So ours is a labor of love. Maybe Orem's chamber of commerce will direct some of those hundreds hun-dreds who wish to locate here down our way, for, really, Vineyard Vine-yard is a choice spot. Orem is of the best and easily meets top standards. Drinking fountains increase the desire-ability desire-ability of a town and enhance the value of the property. Let's have more of them! A Reader.
