The Klwanis club had a luncheon in the pink room of the Oliver hotel Thursday noon, when plans were d:si us-ed for obtaining permanent quarters for the club. The members and guests first went to the caf teria and selected their food snd then proceeded to the Main cafe where tables were provided"?

Stas The exigency of the situation demands that fa-mers who previously have opposed furrowed tire guards now make practical application of this control. Farms also should ha" available lire-lighting equipment such as chemical extinguishers or barrels and buckets of water, the department suggests. Precaution should also be exerhsadj against ' hot boxes" and other improperly adjusted machinery which are possible sources of loss Where possible every farm should be equipped with several chemical fire extinguishers, as these first aids in tire fighting are extremely valuable protection for the grain in the

stack or bin. as well as for the farm)

buildings and other produce or live stock in storage or stable. If such t irmuishers are deemed inadisatle. at least the farmer can have two or three large barrels of water and several buckets handy for emergency fire needs.

The Home and Central union Telephone companies consolidated about a year ago. but have kept up separate exchanges since then. The officials who are here are W, It. Hays, building engineer for the company at Chicago, and his associate, J. C. leach, and B. D. Wilber, division planning engineer, and J. K. Webb, engineei of Imlianapo... The Central I'nion ortlcials request the public to no longer use the exchange as a time piece. There are 3,000 calls ebch day in South Bend asking the time of day and 170 calls daily requesting the telephone operators to rouse patrons at an early hour of the morning. Where there were 1 young women acting as operators at the exchange, there are only 'i today. In other words, according to. the ojiicials. 1 :: women are easily doing the work of '' 1 .
