~FRIDAY^ OCTOBER 6,1944^
October 8 to 14 has been de-
signated as Fire Prevention
Week. Every week in the year
should be just that, but special
precautions should be taken be-
fore fires are started for the cold
months. Every year millions of
dollars in food and feed are de-
stroyed by fires, largely due to
negligence. Right now it is hard
to replace any kind of a build-
ing that burns, due to shortage
of materials, and an ounce of
prevention is worth a pound of
cure.
RUGBY
Bill Cross, publisher of the
Mt. Pleasant Times and Burt
Lockhart, publisher of the Pitts-
burg Gazette, came to see this
editor last Saturday. It was
these neighboring publishers and
friends, along with Lon Boynton
of the Lamar County Echo, who
offered their facilities and assist-
ance of their printers to insure
prompt publication of this news-
paper last July when this editor
was run over and seriously hurt
by a drinking Dallas automobile
driver. We were very much
pleased to see these fine friends,
but have a sneaking idea they
were a little disappointed be-
cause we were not in bed. Elev-
en weeks is a long time abed, and
we are mighty glad to again be

The most permanent fixture of your home is the
plumbing fixtures. They have to be perfect from the
city supply to your home. The health of every person
who uses city water rests with perfection of plufnbing.
It is true your fixtures cost more now than in pre-
war days, so does everything else. What lasts longer?
The oldest known water mains in the world are still
giving service at Versailles, France. They are 280 years
old. The oldest one in America is a mere 123 at Phila-
delphia.

Predictions of victory over-the
Germans within a few wbeks are
highly optimistic if one may
judge by reports from Europe
during the past week. It is true
the Russian armies made magni-
ficent drives, but in thg north
they have been stopped by the
Germans for two months. Am-
erican and British forces routed
them from France and have
small wedges in the Siegfried j
line, but have been unable to j
fashion any really substantial
gains out of these wedges. Ger- j
man supply lines are shorter j
now, and like the country dog j
that came to town, they are i
fighting fiercely under their own
wagon. When Allied armies have
run the Germans from Italy,
Belgium, Holland, and the other
countries to the east and south I
back on German soil and have !
had a real break thru on the
Siegfried line, it will then be I
time to talk of the beginning of |
the end of the war in Europe. I
