After a hard winter, one’s thoughts incline towards seashore, lake, moun- tains or woods. | More than 35,000,000 people in the United States go some.place away from home for a vacation. | Seventy per cent of these migra-' tions take place in the summer. Most vacationists go to the seashores or lakeshores. | Next in interest are the high places, mountains and communities in high altitude. | The rest of the folks go to the desert. Vacationists do not remain away | long, 65 percent of them staying at al resort less than 10 days. | The great urge of vacationists when they go away is for a climatic change. There are two kinds of climate they may seek, either sedative or stimula- | ting. A sedative climate is one charac-| terized by stability of weather-clear warm days. | A stimulating climate is one which challenges the individual — and off- ers sudden and exciting weather chan- ges. Asedative climate is good for the feeble, aged and delicate children, and also for percons matic heart disease. a vacation. they usually seek. Europeans take their vacations more seriously, to get the greatest physical benefit out of them. They consult their physician, whe- ther they are sick or not, as to where to go, what and how much exercise to take, about baths and diet. In other words, European vacations are for the most part medically direc- ted with the aim to make them con- structively healthful, wheras the Am- erican vacation is undirected. Americans on vacation have a good time and come home to rest. FIREMEN HEAR ASSEM- BLYMAN WESTRICK Assemblyman Denis Westrick last Thursay night assured members of the Volunteer Firemen’s Association of Cambria County and vicinity that a bill has been presented to the State Leg- islature which calls for payment to firemen’s associations for the use of the buildings as polling places. The firemen met last Thursday night in the Dale Borough Municipal Building as the guests of the Dale Firemen. President George of Lilly was in charge of the session. Assemblyman Westrick indicated that the bill would be heard and acted upon in the very near future. Sheriff Cyrus W. Davis also address- ed the firemen and asked their co- operation in the statewide safety drive. Chief John Moran of the Johnstown Fire Department lauded firemen for the excellent work at the fire which guted the Sell Motor Company. Moran | said that the assistance of the volun- teers proved invaluable at the blaze. | He also commended the organizations that “filled in’ for Johnstown com- panies that were engaged in batling the blaze. President George announced that the | firemen's parade in connection with | the annual convention would take] place Thursday, August 3. JAMES ASKS OBSERVANCE OF ARMY DAY, APRIL 6th Harrisburg — Governor Artaur H. James last Thursday urged ‘proper observance” of Army Day, April 6, by displaying of the American Flag on every home and building as “evi- dence of our understanding of the need for an adequate national defense.” “Since our nation’s founding,” James said, “we have followed the tradition of a small standing army and a large and competent civilian militia and re- serve. Therefore, on Army Day we salute the Pennsylvania National Guard, the organized reserves and the Regular Army and I urge all our citizens to assist these units of na- tional defense in proper observance of the day.” | with debilitating , at the site of Admiral Peary's monu- diseases, such as arthritis and rheu- | ment in Cresson.

The new troop is to be known as Troop 75. Rev. Father Eugene Bradley of St. Patrick's Church, Johnstown, will assist with the installation ceremonies. Scout leaders also discussed plans for a training course to be given for Scoutmasters and other leaders in the county. District officials will meet with representatives from other districts in the council on April 3 to formulate plans for the training course, which probably will be given in Ebensburg. Roger Cann, assistant executive of the council, announced that a camporee would be held probably early in June it was announced. Cann also announced that a Scout training conference would be held in McKeesport on March 31. A number of Cambria County Scouters are expec- ted to attend the conference. Announcement also was made that a course in cubbing will be given for all scouters in the state in Harrisburg on April 29 and 30. Cann said that he expects to attend the sessions and pro- bably will be accompanied by a num- ber of council leaders. The next meeting will be held April 28 in Bakerton. PAY JURORS FOR REMAINING IDLE Here's the record of the last week's term of the Cambria County Civil Court: Cases for which juries were drawn, seven; cases actually tried, five; case where jury was instructed to re- turn directed verdict, one; case where jury was discharged and case contin ued because attorney for plaintiff was permitted to amend statement of claim, cne; other cases continued, 16; cases settled before trial, three. Total pay- ments made to jurors for pay at rate of $3 per day and milegare allowances, $1,376,64. Only one qther case, hearing which opened Monday, remains to be tried at the term. Listed for trial originally at the term of civil court were 45 cases as is re- quired by the rules of theCambria County Court. When the list was re- vised on March 6, it was reduced to 26 cases through attorneys requesting continuances. On the original panel 125 jurors were listed for service, 23 being later excused. The dearth of trials at the term caused Judge Charles C. Greer to commend to more than four score jurorrs who were sitting in Courtroom 1 awaiting calls for actual jury ser- vice which did not come: “You have probably been wondering why most of you have had nothing to do as jurors this week,” Judge Greer said. “You are entitled to know.” There have been an unusual num- ber of continuances due in some in- stances to illness of witnesses and ot- her reasons. However, I can only say that in the future the court will we to it that continuances will only be granted for proper cause.” FOREST BLAZES BRING OFFICERS’ WARNING With the outbreak of several small forest fires in the tri-county area came rigid warnings from District Foresters Thomas M. Gray of the Gallitzin Dis- trict and D. M. Bearer of the Forbes district against brush burning and the kindling of other outdoor fires which might endanger woodlands. Forester Gray said that the extre- mely early outbreak of the fires indi- cates that the woods are unusually dry and can be easily ignited. Gray an- nounced that towermen in the district Centenarian Receives Centennial Ticket in the district, which includes Cambria | and Indiana Counties and parts of Blair and Clearfield Counties. Crew- | men reported that all lines were in ex- cellent condition. Telephones in the towers will be connected during the next week so as to be ready when towermen man the structures April 1. In an effort to cope with the situa- tion, inspectors in the area have been ; ordered to patrol the most densely- wooded areas in the district. Motor- ists and farmers also have been urged to cooperate with forestry officials in reporting any blazes sighted. Farmers burning brush were in- structed to report to the district head- | quarters before starting the fire and also were urged to keep close watch until the fire had been extinguished. Representative Francis J. Falken- setin, Democrat, Philadelphia propos- ea that work be limited to a 35-hour, | 5 and one-half day week, with exem- ptions for farm help, household ser- vants, members of the learned pro- fessions and bona fide executives earn- | third dividend disbursement of the n-| ing $25 or more weekly. The administrative agency specified in the Falkenstein bill would be known as the employment commission, headed | by the secretary of labor and industry, who would serve with the secretary of the proposed department of commerce and five commissioners appointed by the Governor. Appointive members would serve four years. Labor and industry each would be represented by at least two bers would serve without extra pay. The appointed memebrs would be paid $3,000 a year. The bill empowers the commission to “prescribe reasonable rules for re- gulating hours and conditions of em- ployment.” PORTAGE BANK TO DISTRIBUTE FUND Frank E. Lauder of Bedford, recei- ver of the insolvent First National | Bank of Portage, announces that the] stitution will be made next week, 1,100 | depositors participating in the distri- bution of approximately $71,000, or a 10 percent dividend.

M. and 4 P. M. to receive their checks. Other dividends will be paid as funds are available.
