Frpm time to time, something is said about cleaning especial ly. irt the business districts as a precaution against fires. The I mny*r warned during Fire pre- ) vent(on Week against losing the low^isurance rate in this city, and som4 cleaning up of back lots was accomplished. But to clean up just occasionally is not the idea. Rub bisjl and especially inflammable trnsh, must be disposed of con tinifiu.sly. The Industrial Newta /Bi^eau of The Manufacturer, giv<|£; a pertinent suggestion along this^line—as follows: L 1 ‘^Traffic departments of cities and! states can pass traffic regu lation laws and ordinances until they are black in the face in an ef fjbr^ to curb automobile accident*. ButJ so long as they fail to do the onei most vital thing to protect! thejtraveling public, namely require of ft driver an actual test as to his.% competency to drive a ma chine, accidents will continue to —« increase. “And so it is with fire preven tion work. A city or state will talk .fire prevention. It will spend thousands and ten of thousands and hundreds of thousands of dol lars buying fire fighting equip ment, maintaining fire departments and state insurance departments. But the one thing which could be done at the least expense to pre vent fires, is entirely overlooked, namely, laws and ordinances which prohibit the accumulation of rubbish piles and fire hazards of a knowp character. If such haz ards accumulate and are permitted to remain and cause loss, why not fine the owner just the same as an automobile driver is fined for breaking traffic laws? “If half |the energy was ex-: pended by fire prevention officials that is expended by 'traffic offi cers, the saving in life and prop erty to the American public would be many times as great.’’ VYHAI IN StUUlimi WORTH TO US? Scouting in Smithfield 5n the last year has gone forward with great/ strides. The Court of Honor ‘ is one of the most active in the whole Council. Some of Smith field’s best citizens go to mtfke up this body of men who are giv ing their time and thoughts to the future men of our town. Scout ing is worth every cent that Smithfield has put into it. Uhe Scout camp has brought nearly two thousand dollars to our tow'n ind it will bring more in the years to come. A Smithfield man s the President of the Council. Johnston county has more troops md more scouts than any other lounty except Lenoir. Scouting wrought boys to Smithfield from ill four states last year which was i i booster for us. Leaving outsiders out of it, the "allowing is some of the records >ur town boys have made in two years in Scouting. We want you :o read it over and decide for your self what benefits do these boys if ours get out of Scouting. What s Scouting worth to us?
