Those who like to dance should come out and enjoy this activity. Others may come out to watch. And still others may assist by making contributions toward the fund which will provide fireworks for the annual July 4th celebration. The fire crew is always ready to answer OUR CALL. Let's show our support by answering theirs. Remember safety precautions, and support the dance during National Fire Prevention Week. Fire Prevention The Job Every 37 seconds a fire breaks out in some city in the United States, endangering lives' and damaging or destroying property. Every 46 minutes some one dies as the result of fire in this country. These are the two impelling challenges commanding us to give a thought to fhe safety during Fire Prevention Week (October It was the Great Chicago Fire in 1871 that eventually brought recognition of the need for a concentrated drive for fire prevention on a national scale. First Fire Prevention Day Proclamation of Fire Prevention Day." The first Fire Prevention Day was observed October 9, 1911, the 40th anniversary of the Great Chicago Fire. In 1920, President Woodrovv Wilson issued the first of Fire Prevention Day. And, in 1922, President Warren G. Harding proclaimed the first Fire Prevention Week. Each year since then, the President of the United States has proclaimed the week containing October 9 as Fire Prevention Week. Last year losses from fire were a shade below those of the pre. . . Presidential-Proclamati- ceding year. In 1959 the number of fire deaths totaled 11.303, compared witn 11,500 in 1958. And fire losses at $1,047,073,000 were s of one per cent under 1958, the first decline since 1950. The Job Must Continue There can be no relenting in the fight against fire. There can be no resting on the laurels. It is the job of all of us to continue our efforts to make America fire safe. Have you checked your attic or basement recently for accumulation of the type of combustible trash in which fires so easily start? Have you checked your electrical circuits and extension cords to make sure they are in tip-to- p shape? Does your fuse box contain fuses of the proper amperage? Remember of all fires are caused by matches and smoking. Another 20.4 per cent are the result of misuse of electrical s of all fires are needless they are equipment. And caused by human carelessness and forgctfulnc"s. j You can do your part tonight by using c?"e. nine-tenlh- one-four- th three-fourth- Plans Progress For New Lehi Hospital Plans are progressing toward the establishment of a new hospital in Lehi, according to members of the Lehi Hospital Board. Although no definite commitments have as yet been made, several sites are under consideration and community residents are being asked to assist in the selection of a name for the new institution. Although the name of a hospital or any other building may seem of lesser importance, it is one consideration made by the government before an allocation of funds can be secured. The name, the site, the architect's drawings and the city's portion of the building funds must all be taken into consideration by government representatives before the allottment will be made, board members reported. It has been proposed that a convalescent type lwspital be maintained here. Suggestions concerning this may be made by residents. The interest and comments of local residents and others concerned are solicited by the hospital board, which includes Mrs. John (Alice) Broadbent, chairman; Harold Ellison, Calvin Swenson, Mrs. Noy (Elma) Chris toff erson and Grant B.
