PRESCRlfTiOH Verhovayak Lapja WHATEVER YOU ARE— BE THE BEST If you can’t be a pine on the top of the hill Be a scrub in the valley— but be The best little scrub by the side of the hill; Be a bush if you can’t be a tree. If you can’t be a bush be a bit of the grass, On some highway to some happier make; If you can’t be a muskie, then just be a bass But the liveliest bass in the lake. We can’t all be captains, we’ve got to be crew, There’s something for all of us here; There’s big work to do and there’s lesser to do, And the task we mpst do is the near. If you can’t be a highway, then just be a trail, If you can’t be the sun, be a star; It isn’t by size that you win or you fail— Be the best of whatever you are.---------------O-------------­GOOD START During January, the Na­tional Board of Fire Under­writers announces the esti­mated national fire loss was $26,470,000. That is close to $10,000,000 less than the loss in January, 1940, when the toll passed the $36,000,- 000 mark. Furthermore, when fire loss is reduced, more is saved than mere money. Materials are preserved from destruction—and in these days, when our resources are being strained by defense demands, that is of great importance. Taxable pro­perty is kept from becom­ing a useless mass or rubble and ash—which is a boon to all the taxpayers. Payrolls are maintained—instead of being abruptly terminated, which is what happens when lire destroys a place of busi­ness. And, most important of all, lives are saved. We’ve made a good start in holding down fire’s ravages this year. Let’s keep the work up. Suppose each month saw a reduction in fire waste of $10,000,000 over the same month of the pre­vious year. The total saved would be $120,000,000— enough money to hire 100,- 000 men at wages of $100 monthly, or to build 40,000 homes costing $3,000 each, or to construct 2,400 fight­ing airplanes valued at $50,000 each, or to build two gigantic battleships of the $60,000,000 type. That goal is possible— YOUR INSURANCE— YOUR COUNTRY Tens of millions of the thrifty have sought and found economic security through life insurance. There are more than a hundred million life policies in force, and the companies issuing them have an unbelievable yccord of fulfilling contracts to the . letter. Billions of dollars in pre­miums are held as “reserves” and invested in American business, industrial and agricultural enterprises, as well as in obligations of government, by life insur­ance. Because of these bil­lions of policyholders’ savings invested in every line of endeavor, life insurance is financially almost as strong as the nation. Get out your policy. Look at it. Ask your agent where the money from your pre­miums goes. Hf will, in effect, tell you that behind your insurance policy lies a cross section of American economic life. You will sud­denly realize that this is your country—perhaps you will even take a new in­terest in problems of in­dustry and government which heretofore have seem­ed remote to you.------------O-----------­COLD FACTS One hundred thousand persons are accidentally kill­ed in the United States each year. One thousand eight hun­dred different known dis­eases now exist. Three million persons are seriously ill in this country today. Thirty thousand people at home today will enter hospitals tomorrow. Four million five hundred persons are disabled annu­ally as a result of injuries in the home. Ninety-nine people are disabled from sickness or accidents to every one that dies. Accidents to men are 960 times more frequent than fire to their property. There are 490,667 physi­cians, nurses and hospitals in the United States. Over $900,000,000 were spent for physicians’ serv­ices during a year. Nurses at homes received $152,000,000 in wages for a year. Automobile fatalities have increased 500 per cent dur­ing the past 20 years. Automobile accidents caus­ed about 1,000,0000 deaths and injuries in a year.— George L. Dyer in The Columbian. eighty per cent of all fires are preventable. Do your part. NEWS FACTS by GEORGE fÁRMINOMÉ, NEW YORK. A NEW SPORT PLANE, THE*PlETENPOL AIR­­CAMPER* IS DESIGNED FOR HOME CON­STRUCTION. THE PLANE IS POWERED WITH A FORD'T' OR 'A' ENGINE. THIS PLANE IS A GREAT SUCCES5 WITH AMATEURS. HIGHLAND, NEVADA. A CIVIC BODY HERE HAS FILED A COMPLAINT AGAINST THE LOCAL PARK DEPARTMENT____THEY CLAIM THAT PUBLIC WATER FOUNTAINS IN THE PARKS, HAVE TOO MUCH PRESSURE AND ARE THEREFORE UNSAFE/ HAVE COURAGE TO SAY NO! You’re starting today on life’s journey, Along on the highway of life! You’ll meet with a thousand temptations, Each city with evil is rife. This world is a state of excitement, There’s danger wherever you go; But if you are tempted in weakness, Have courage, my boy, to say No! The Siren’s sweet song may allure you; Beware of her cunning and art; Whenever you see her ap­proaching, Be guarded, and haste to depart. The billiard saloons are in­viting, Decked out in their tinsel and show; You may be invited to enter; Have courage, my boy, tc say No! The bright ruby drink may be offered; No matter how tempting it be, From poison that stings like an adder, My boy, have courage to flee. The gambling halls are be­fore you, Their -light—how they dance to and fro! If you should be tempted to enter, Think twice—even thrice —e’er you go. In courage alone lies your safety, When you the long journey begin, / And . trust in a Heavenly Father Will keep you unspotted from sin. li Temptations will go on in­creasing, ä As streams from a rivulet flow, «i But if you are true to youi manhood, tf Have courage, my boy, to say No! •—Selected.--------------O-------------- j INSURANCE AND MARRIAGE No man with a family can afford to gamble with the future and should give thought to life insur­ance before even a wedding ring, according to John G. Lonsdale, president of the American Bankers’ Association. “In my opinion it is clearly the duty of the wife to insist that her husband carry adequate insurance; to see to it that he does not place too low a valuation on his life; to arrange it so that in case his earn­ings cease forever, there will be a dependable income to.whieh she may look forward with regularity an assurance, just as she did to his pay check,” he declared. “I would even go so far as to say to the young man who contemplates marriage, ‘Buy insurance before you buy the wedding ring.’ To the young woman I would say, ‘Marry no man who is so thoughtless as to scoff at life insurance.’ “From a boy of six years on, I have been an ardent advocate of life insurance. For, back in 1878, when the yellow fever scourge swept the city of Memphis, Tenn., and robbed me of parents, who sacrificed their lives for others, it was the proceeds of a life in­surance policy carried by my father that saved me from de­pendency and enabled me to ob­tain an education so that I might intrench myself for the battles of life that were to follow. “Not only as a private citizen, but as a banker, do I wish to em­phasize the merits and importance
