IT'S UP TO YOU Every community, whether it b I;, a tiny village or a teeming metrop olis. should at this time make fir prevention a headlined civic actlvl ty. Eire prevention is vitally impot tant at any time. In this, period when we are attempting to tun all possible national resources ti defense purposes, its Importance 1 magnified many times. Anyone cm understand the menace of fire ti defense factories ?one conflagra !?? oaiim /Inlnv vitnl nrnHnrtinn fft """ * months. And it should also be und erstood that the prevention of firi everywhere is a definite cpntrtbu tion to defense. Materials and labo which, are needed to .rebuild a houv or a barn or a place of business cannot be used for defense worJt The more fires we prevent, the fev er inatc.flal shortages we will haV' ? and the faster the defense effor wili go through to successful eon i/V summation. Many organi/alions are doing ev rythtng concefvable to fight am B* prevent fire. These activities ari bearing fine fruit. Hut they c'nnno achieve maxijnuht success withou unlimited public and civic aid am cooperation. ?; ? Keep in iniml the fact that firi prevention is in tlie direct interes of your safety, your security, you B survival. Anil do your part. I CALL OR SEE 1 KENNON BLANTON At Terminal Ser.

' Queen. Much attracted by her old love, she changes her plans JP ami decides to spend a full' day at the Carnival. Meanwhile Ann J ,J meets Mickey Allen, mainstay of Dartmouth's ski tram, and the two become deeply inter- \? estcd in each other. '. Chapter Four th* bio John Weldon's old friend, Rocky ma Morgan, took advantage of a rest Ing period In the ski races to drag het Johnny into the nearby coffee shop dls! where the excited Carnivalites Wh gathered for warmth and refresh- he ment. Rocky, like Johnny, was a set Dartmouth graduate who had set- ves yemm s*Mf ^ ? , * The young man teas In dangt tied down to teaching at the Col- sal lege; with.the difference that he its had married the girl of his first wa choice and was now the father of coi a strapping infant. mi Rocky, promising Weldon a sur- hli prise in the coffee shop, produced wa Jill Baxter resplendent in a brand Ha new ski suit. Jill somewhat lamely ' explained that she had been thwart- all ed in her mad desire to escape ed Dartmouth on the four o'clock th< train, owing to a complete lack of ' reservations. jui Lucy and Rocky, affectionate yo friends of both John and Jill, bal commanded them to come for tlx dinner that night, and brooked gel no refusal. When they were gone, tor Weldon surveyed his ex-sweetheart bei ii ii hin "Can you imagine?" said Jill, "ft "Not one reservation left on that ?lt train! I have to wait until mid- Jul night ? isn't it a bore?" "Uh-huh. So boring you ran rleht ' out and bought a brand new ski wh outfit." th< "I had to. It's very cold here." * f She looked at him meaningfully, . resentfully. "Very cold indeed!"" by The Morgan's dinner went off W< gaily enough, the merry remlnis- ' cences. being kept on a carefully bo impersonal plane. But after din- . ner,. as they sat sipping coffee be- ?h fore the fire In the living - room, Lucy made a tentative effort to W rekindle the spark in her two old y* - -friends. "Remember the time we all were V? going to ski up to Cloud Cabin for supper?" Johnny and Jill ex- Wl changed glances; she smiled prp vocatively. h? "I always knew we'd keep that j" date some time," contlmied Lucy. "0 "Let's do It tomorrow." ?n "Thanks, Lucy." said Weldon drily, "but Jill won't be here." "No," put In Jill hastily. "I'm taking the Montrealer at mid- re! night." An embarrassing, painful silence *r< ?..broken at last by the sound of ca, a band in the distance. . "Festival's starting," remarked j"? Rocky, going to tho window. Fireworks were spangling the sky f? . near the Outing Club. "Come on. J? Lucy, throw away that apron." to "Oh.
