Especially do I want to express appreciation for the outstanding participation in Na October 1-8 Designated As Newspaper Week Greensboro, N. C., Oct. 1— The annual observance of Newspaper Week in North Carolina began Oct. 1 and promises to be the most effective in the 19-year observance of the event, according to John Harden, Newspaper Week chair man for North Carolina. Governor Hodges has designated October 1-8 as Newspaper Week | in North Carolina. In his state-) ment he said: “It is especially fit-' ting that the people of North Carolina participate in this event. There are few areas in the Nation in which the public is so efficient ly and capably served by the news paper profession. Newspapers pro vide a basic source of information for all our citizens and we all re cognize that a democracy cannot survive without an informed electorate. “This state is also fortunate in that the majority of its newspap er men and women subscribe with- ! out reservation to the Journalist's Creed, which asserts: ‘I believe that the public journal is a public trust; that all connected with it . are, to the full measure of their responsibility, trustees' for the pub lic, that acceptance of a lesser service than the public service is betrayal of this trust.’ ” Scheduled for appearances be fore clubs and civic groups for Newspaper Week speeches are Dean Neil Luxon of th e School of Journalism, University of North you |il won't Wh find m better [m value... lift priced |B any lower!

NATIONAL FIRE PREVENTION WEEK By: Virglnh> "ox, ASS’* Homs Agent October s*ll has been proclaimed os National Fire Prevention Week. During this week the people of Yancey County should take care in searching for fire hazards ar ound the hom e and take action to remove them. There is a loss of $150,000,000 annually from farm fires and a loss of hundreds of lives. Most of these fires are caused by carlessness, by such thcughtless acts as tossing away a lighted rtatch, cigarette, pipe tobacco, allowing rubbish to ac cumlate, overloading electric wir ing or leaving children at home alone. Many precautions should be taken in every part of the home to eliminate fire hazards. In living room, have the chimney cleaned and inspected. Make sure ash trays are provided for smokers and don’t, overload electric cir cuits. In-the kitchen keep the stov e clean and free of grease; never us e kerosene or gasoline to “quicken” fire; don’t hang towels' near stove. In the basement and attic get rid of all clutter ahd papers. Don't store dust clothes or oily rags in the house, keep them in a metal container. These ar e only a few of the pre cautions which should be taken to prevent a fire from starting in various parts of, the home. In case a fire strikes, immedi ately do these two- things: 1. Get everybody out of the house; 2. Call the fir e department. If you live in an area not served by a fire department keep a fire extin guisher on hand, have a handy water supply, ladders, buckets and a garden hose where they can be found quickly. Remember every day 800 homes are struck by fire. You can help to lower that number by taking precautions and checking your home for fire hazards and cor- J recting them. 1 Are You Assured Os A 1 Comfortably Heated House This Winter?
