Newspapers try to perform an impossible task. They
try to be almost all things to almost all people.
Not even the best of them achieve that goal. But they
try, within the limits of their resources.
It is a formidable challenge:
— To report, accurately and fully, yet concisely, the
news of the day at the local, state, national and in-
ternational levels.
— To entertain, with comic strips, columns, puzzles,
sports reporting, and other amusements.
— To provide a forum for discussion of public issues.
— To act as the consumers’ friend, the homemakers’
advisor and counselor, the buyers’ guide, the sellers’
marketplace, the voters’ source of information on can-
didates and issues.
— To be the community’s “bulletin board.”
— To comment, honestly, forthrightly, courageously
and knowledgeably, on the important topics of the day.
Your newspaper works for you. It is your window to
the world, your servant, your friend, your counselor, and
your way of voicing your opinions to a wide audience.
No other enterprise can make that statement.

Fire Safety Tips Offered
Nearly every minute of the
day, a fire breaks out in a
dwelling somewhere in the
United States.
Thousands of fires erupt
each year as the result of
careless use of tobacco and
household chemicals, de-
fective heating equipment,
and overloaded electrical
wiring. Nearly 9,000 lives
are lost annually in U.S.
fires.
Observance of a few
common-sense precautions
can greatly reduce the risk
of a household fire. To be
safe at home, William G.
Gilmore, senior vice presi-
dent of A-T-0 Inc., the
world’s largest integrated
manufacturer of fire-
protection equipment,
recommends that you:
-Keep a supply of large,
deep-dish ashtrays through-
out the home and be sure
that all cigarettes are
crushed out. Never smoke in
bed.
-Cover all combustible ma-
terials such as gasoline,
cleaning fluids, and paint
thinners before storing.
Keep them in a safe place.
-Install a fire extinguisher
in the kitchen and on each
floor of a multi-level dwell-
ing. Be sure all members of
the family know where each
extinguisher is and how to
use it.
-Have your heating system
and chimney checked before
each winter season, and
keep oily rags, newspapers
and other combustible ma-
terials far away from heating
equipment and stoves.
-Keep young children out of
the kitchen when no adults
are around, and keep
Funeral
ROGER PUCKETT
Services for Roger F.
Puckett, 62, a resident of
Achille, Okla. and a retired
church of Christ minister,
who died Saturday at a
Houston hospital after a long
illness, were held Tuesday
at the Savoy Church of
Christ, conducted by Don
Tarbet, church of Christ
mininster of Colbert, Okla.
and Cecil Bunch, church of
Christ minister of Sherman.
Mr. Puckett was born in
Dyer County, Tenn. and was
married to Vella Brock on
Dec. 4, 1950. He had
preached for the church of
Christ 39 years and was
minister in Savoy from 1966
to 1969.
Among the survivors is a
daughter, Mrs. Billy Clinton
of Howe.
matches out of their reach.
--Avoid overloading your
electrical system.
-Conduct family fire drills
periodically so that everyone
knows what to do in case of
fire and the best routes for
evacuating the premises.
-Sleep with bedroom doors
closed. If you smell smoke
and the inside surface of the
door is warm to the touch,
do no open it. Instead, try to
exit by another route or
through a window.
—Consider installation of fire
and smoke alarms to alert
the family in time to escape
a blaze.
Ag Briefs
More and more Texas
farmers and ranchers are
planting winter pastures,
says a forage specialist with
the Texas Agricultural Ex-
tension Service. The main
reasons are that hay
supplies are short due to the
drouth and that winter pas-
tures can provide high
quality grazing during the
winter and early spring.
Planting wheat, oats or rye-
grass on a prepared seedbed
is best although they can
also be seeded into
bermudagrass sod.
*****
Planting ryegrass for win-
ter pasture allows producers
to cut seed costs without
sacrificing quality grazing,
contends a forage specialist
with the Extension Service.
Ryegrass can be planted on
either a prepared seedbed or
overseeded on perennial
grass such as bermudagrass.
Ryegrass provides forage
high in digestibility and pro-
tein during the winter and
early spring months for calf
weight gain and to get cows
in shape for rebreeding.
*****
ACCIDENT CONTROL - Cu
Current statistics show the
leading causes of fire (in
order of occurrence) to be
electrical, smoking and
matches, heating and cook-
ing equipment, open flames
and sparks, lightning, and
chimneys and flues, notes
the Texas Agricultural Ex-
tension Service.

WHAT'S YOUR OPINION?
Some people say . . .
In many areas of the
country, local tax pro-
grams are inequitable
because the home owner,
through property taxes,
supports a disproportion-
ate share of total govern-
ment budgets. The home
owner "pays” for services
that he does not use, or
pays tax on services he
needs and must have be-
cause these services are
specially taxed for
general purposes.
