The day was clear but windy and the blazing refuse, which some thoughtless per- sons had dumped amidst the wood- lands topping Mt. Airy Road and Evergreen Cemetery, gave the boys quite a workout. But for their prompt response, the upper section of Shavertown could have paralleled the tragedy which struck Staten [Island that same day. + [Shingles stripped from a roof to be repaired, discarded tree limbs lay in a growing mound with bone dry leaves just waiting to kindle a holocaust. ‘Two pumpers and the tanker - were necessary to completely wet down the smouldering pile which had already jumped a narrow path and set winter's debris aflame by the time spiraling smoke clouds warned residents of its spreading danger. Flames extinguished, it was necessary to reach into the hot pile and spread out the mass of still smoking fodder, while others con- tinued to direct streams of water about the threatened area. Bill Frederick was in charge. And as I watched, I wondered how many appreciate the hard work and sweat these volunteers so readily gave in ‘their fine spirit of neighborliness and community con- cern. It might also be the time to have the zoning commission bring about the removal of such dumps from our lovely woodlands. Perhaps ‘they did not know they were there. Few of us did. Dry Season in Formosa The prevailing dry conditions in our area must be world wide for in Freddie's last letter, he told of the tragedy of young rice plants so vital for food in far off Formosa and how the lack of rain was causing them to wither and die, an unreplaceable loss for a needy people, who really know ‘the pangs of hunger. His diet consists of two bowls of rice for every meal with vegetables occasionally as a dressing. Wild ‘boar, venison or chicken is used only for special occasions, meat is not a part of their regular diet for they cannot afford it. How lucky ‘we in America are.
