It is a matter of pride among servicemen, from general to private, to salute willingly, promptly, and proudly, as most recently displayed by Col. Edwin Jr., when he and Neil A. Armstrong were contacted by President Nixon during their stay on the moon. Since World War II (when saluting was misguid-edl- y in some areas), the good soldier has stood out among his associates by his smart, correct and cheerful salute. When he salutes or receives a salute he marks himself as a serviceman with pride in himself and his uniform. As a serviceman he recognizes that the salute is a privilege enjoyed only by military men, and is a of comradeship in the mutual acknowledgement of arms. profession pre-Rom- an Al-dr- in Instead of a day to honor the working man, as established 75 years ago, Labor Day has become just another time to get away from work. As in the case of many of our other holiday observances, Labor Day's true meaning has become obscured. Where once there were parades along the main streets of cities and towns in honor of the working man, about the only parade you can now see on Labor Day is the parade of cars jamming the highways, taking families to the lakes, beaches and mountains for their last annual holiday fling. This is unfortunate when you consider the tens of millions of working men and women who have played a major role in making this nation the richest and most productive country in the world. The past, present and future strength of this counis try in the multitudes of working people who produce the commodities and services essential to the growth and development of the nation. We in the military have a special debt to the workIn times of war and national emergency he has man. ing in meeting the threats of aggression, either by us joined his tools and joining our ranks, or providing us aside laying with the essential supplies and equipment to accomplish our mission. In time of peace he has met the challenges of progress, supplying us with the latest and best weapons and equipment to deter the threat of world aggression. The American working men and servicemen are strong partners in making this the most progressive, safest and greatest nation in the world. (AFPS) Desert Drifts By Mary Lou Nahas The specific origin of saluting is lost in antiquity. For centuries, however, men at arms have rendered fraternal and respectful greetings to indicate friendliness. In early times armed men raised their weapons or. shifted them to the left hand (while raising the empty right hand) to give proof of amicable intentions. During the Middle Ages, knights in armor, on encountering friendly knights, raised their helmet visors in recognition. If they were in the presence of feudal superiors the helmet was usually doffed. In every case, the fighting man made a gesture of friendliness the raising of the This hand. survives as today's hand gesture empty right salute, the traditional greeting among military men of all nations. Ir uie tajim; uw : i iiuuiui sarnie suai j rr ui ; , original uuning cap, the discharge of weapons, presentations of arms, and lowering of the point of the sword were all intended to signify good will. In every case, the one so saluting momentarily rendered himself incanalile nf ucincr trie weapon offensively. The descendants of these earlier gestures are the modern sword salute, present arms and coin salutes. Salute with pride and bring credit to yourself and vnur service. 1 ' I L I I 1 I Troopin the a racK 10 scnooi saieiy Across the country and around the world children will be going back to school and exposing themselves to the .usual, if not increased dangers of traffic as well as other school hazards. Here are a few suggestions from the Federal Safety Council how the vehicle operator, parents and students can work for a safer school year. When driving, always be prepared for, a child to dash unexpectedly into the street, especially in residential and school areas. Be ready for the unexpected when there is a group of children near the street. When driving near school grounds keep in mind that they may be teeming with shouting and racing children who do not. watch where they are going. Parents should teach their children proper traf- -' fie safety, caution them to take the safest route, to cross streets only where they are monitored by patrolmen or only at marked crosswalks. If they must walk on a road without a sidewalk they should walk in the left side, facing traffic. If bicycles are ridden to and from school children should be cautioned to always walk their bicycles across busy streets in marked crosswalks. Before permitting them to ride bicycles to school, be sure they can handle1 their bikes with skill, and know and observe bicycle .regulations. Above all, parents should make sure their chil-- j dren understand never to accept gifts or rides from strangers.

Safety Zone by Lawrence Smith, Safety Officer The domestication and captivity of animals has been encouraged by man's curiosity and his desire for their friendship and loyalty. A wide variety of animals are kept and cared for as household pets and an increasing number of animal bites indicates the necessity of animal owners to familiarize themselves with proper requirements governing animal registration, immunization, care, treatment, and control. The great danger from animal bite is rabies, a hideous disease transmitted by animal saliva into an open wound. Rabies is a slow- - developing disease, but once symptoms appear, the disease is incurable. Your best precaution is to keep your distance from animals. Don't feed wild animals by hand. Never pick up a sick animal; it may be in last stages of rabies. Don't let children play with wild animals. When camping, keep tent flaps fastened so wild animals can't enter. Be on the alert for domestic animals that act strangely. Rabies may cause personality changes in pets. One that has been friendly may become mean. A vicious dog may become amiable? Be suspicious of any pet that coughs, froths at die mouth or tries to gulp strange objects such as stones. If you see such an animal, inform the Provost Marshal Office and the Safety Division. Report stray dogs to the Provost Marshal Office. Teach children to avoid strange dogs. Have your dog innoculated against rallies. If you are bitten by an animal, capture the animal alive if possible so it can be quarantined and observed to determine if it has rabies. If you must kill the animal, do not injure its brain which contains the evidence of rabies. Wash the wound with soap and water in an effort to remove me saliva which carries the rabies virus. Bandage the wound with a sterile dressing. Take the victim to a doctor who will decide when and if to administer anti-- rabies shots. Anti- - rahic vaccine is much improved and should be accepted readily if me physician advises it Individual owners of animals at Dugway Proving Ground are required to register all privately owned pets with the Post Veterinarian within one week after arrival of pets on the installation. Exceptions to registration are: Animals maintained in aquariums, birds maintained in cages, domesticated small rodents maintained in cages. All pets over three months of age, unless specifically exempted by the Post Veterinarian, must be vaccinated for rabies.
