By proclamation of President Roosevelt, Fire Prevention Week will be observed in communities throughout the United States from October 3 to 9. This week, which is observed annually in an effort to cut down the nations staggering and needless fire loss, is especially signifi- ' centers in our own production can neutralize such attacks by completion of the war. to Percy Bugbee, According general manager of the National Fire Protection association, the war may be won or lost by Sit. Fire bombs rained on enemy production centers will impede the flow of munitions to his troops. Fire started through carelessness causing equal damage to our own fighting men. The great majority of farm fires, factory fires, and residential fires in the United States are a result of ordinary carelessness and familiar hazards, says Mr. Bug-beand the purpose of Fire Prevention Week is to teach all citizens the necessity for eliminating fire hazards. Fire defense is a form . of conservation. It is a positive contribution to the war effort. It is earnestly hoped that farmers, laborers, managers, housewives, and even children will take part in this years observance of Fire Prevention Week and continue in the fight against fire throughout the year.

It is seleotion. The boys come from all ranks of life, from farm and factory, from village and city, from the work bench and the class room. There is no question of class, no bar of national origin of the names they bear, no dispute as to their religion. They are chosen because they are physically fit and mentally able to do a hard job because they are tough enough to take it and to hand it out. It is leadership. With only a small standing army, war found us with too few men trained to lead. But that never stopped an American army. The boys in the ranks were culled by their officers and if they showed any qualities of leadership, they were pushed into officers training camps there to earn their ratings. Gossip mongers to the contrary, practically none of our officers were selected friends. Most because of their have come up from the ranks through sheer ability and hard work. Our leaders know the men they are leading because in the ranks are men they know, who kind of come from the same homes, were taught in the same kind of schools the same beliefs in democracy. The men obey because they know why. The officers lead because they know. how. It is devotion. In our ranks are men whose ancestors crossed the seas generations ago and those who came in the last immigration, whose whose only language seems to be American slang, those who talk with a Harvard accent, and those who still have a foreign accent; those who are Americans by birth, and those who are Americans by choice. But there is a common 'bond which ties them together a bond of devotion to a flag which stands for a devotion to the free land that is America. It is consecration. Alike the men who axe American are consecrated to an ideal set forth in the Declaration of Independence, We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal; in the Farewell Address of Citizens by George Washington, the indebirth or choice pendence and liberty you possess are the work of joint councils, and joint efforts of common dangers, in the sufferings and successes; Address of Lincoln, Gettysburg Government of the people, by the people and for the people and finally in the message of President Roosevelt, In the future days which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world founded upon four essential freedoms. devotion Selection, leadership, and consecration that Is what makes an American army American.

Regional OPA officers already have been notified to arrange with local school authorities for - the event. Book 4, as announced by OPA last April, will be used for food. It will contain red and blue point stamps and probably will be in use some time in November. Officials explained that book 4 will supplement book 3, which has only a limited number of food point stamps. Officials were unable to say just which program would be instituted first in book 4. With book 3 and book 4 we hope to have a flexible enough stamp system to last indefinitely and make it unnecessary to issue new books every7 few months, one OPA representative said. The majority of the stamps in book 3 are designed for non-foouse, such as shoes which will require the airplane stamps after the expiration of stamp 18 in the old sugar book. The new ration token program also may get under way around the first of the year, being geared into book 4. Offcials said a school house registration will be held for book 4 because there is insuffcient tame for mail distribution. i . d State Planning Book Tells of Utahs Post-wa- r who received have their 25 pound per person allotment of sugar for canning may no; expect to receive more this season, but this need not deter anyone from putting up all available fruit since it may successfully be canred with little or no sugar at all, O.

Guy Cardon, chairman of the Cache county Rationing and Price Control board. Mr. Cardon announced today that a number of boys in Cache county have been delinquent in some and turning in books have not turned them In at all. The regulations provide that a rationing book belonging to a man entered who has the service should be turned in to the local rationing board within ten days from the date of his induction. Mr. Cardon urged the famliies of these boys to comply with this unregulation to prevent any pleasant investigations or the neof cessity any compulsory measures.

All over the country. they who are volunteered for the Home Front women volunteers Army estimated at three million people who are asking everyone, eerywhere, to invest. Right now, today, hundreds of of housewives are thousands knocking on doors, and calling at offices. They are talcing orders, and delivering Bonds to their customers. Never before in history have so many women volunteered so much of their time to do a financial job for their government. But we owe a debt of gratitude not only to those women who are Bond volunteers but as well to the millions of women who, for one reason or another, cannot help sell Bonds; but who nevertheless are working to reand to organize their budgets, plan their expenditures in such a way that they can buy Bonds and increase their support of the war out of their family income. We know, in the Treasury department, that the Third War Loan cannot be put across with idle money. It is clear to us that we will reach our tremendous quota in this War Loan only if American families are willing to skimp, and to do without, in order to buy Ronds. But when the drive is successfully completed, we will know that the American Home Front is really willing to sacrifice to get the war won quickly, and to get our men back home. working to make the Third War Loan a success, Mrs. Henry Jr., today asserted that a great portion of the credit of this War Loan Drive must go to the nations housewives. Many weeks before the drive was launched, Mrs. Morgenthau said, the women of America began to mobilize to do their share. Thousands of women volunteered for service with the War Finance committee, and hundreds of the countrys leading womens clubs accepted the Third War Loan as their September assignment, and their members gave Bond selling priority over everything else including keeping house. We knew, as a result of experiments in the previous drives, that our only hope of reaching our tremendous quota lay in personal solicitation. Our records showed , that in previous drives a great portion of the people who were actually asked, bought extra Bonds. The solution then lay in asking everyone, not letting anyone go unsolicited. beStatisticians pointed out fore the Third War Loan that the American people in the aggregate had sufficient money more than enough; but there is a great difference between statistical evidence that the money is available, and actually geeting it. Here is where the women step Mor-gentha- u, 35 Will Enter I Armed Forces September Draftees Listed by Board Thirty-fiv- e Cache county men who have been accepted by the armed forces are listed by the local Selective Service 'board as members of the September call, Mrs. Hazel S.

The group who passed will leave Logan, September 23 and 24 to be assigned to training camps. The October draft call is reported to be large, but no Harbor fathers will be affected in this county, officials pointed out.
