Wednesday, June 2, 1993 8 The Dallas Post Dallas, PA Le es : Fires (continued from page 1) or "When we get a call [rom that 4 Recent fires in Dallas Township Her voice quivered. “It's weird — in every case where there has been a fire, the yard touches ours,” she commented. “It's pretty scary,” added arela- tive who refused to be identified. As yellow police tapes around the scene of the latest blaze at 92 Harris Street fluttered in the eve- ning breeze, neighbors spoke cautiously of the rash ofl suspi- cious lires. No children were out and about, and the smell of stale ashes could occasionally be detected on the evening breeze blowing in from the nearby woods. “These fires have us scared. I don't want you to use my name because they might get back at May 22, 1993: Fire destroys a vacant home at 92 Harris Street December, 1992: Two car fires # within 24 hours November, 1992: Car fire March 28, 1993: Fire destroys a vacant home at 87-B Washington Street and damages a nearby garage me," confided a neighbor. “You get different stories from every- body. I'm thinking of getting a dog for protection.” A protective dog certainly didn't help the man known to neighbors as Rocky, who until recently lived at 92 Harris Street. Police said that he had moved out approxi- mately two weeks before the fire. “Rocky told me that his dog always barked at the kids hang- ing out on the corner smoking,” said next-door neighbor Alice Miller. “He said he never paid attention. Then in December his car burned up the same night that my son's did.” Mrs. Miller's car had also been destroyed in an earlier fire. seclion of Roushey Plot, we cer- tainly know that it's not a [alse alarm.” said Dallas Fire Chief Bob Besecker, who had made a hasty exit from his daughter's wedding reception to direct firefighters at the May 22 house lire. “They're all right near that corner on Harris Street. They have to be together,” he continued. “It had to be suspicious. The house was vacant, with no utilities hooked up. Someone drove by shortly before the fire and saw nothing out of the ordinary.” Besecker said that he only notifies police and the fire mar- shalifhe can't determine the cause of a fire. Dallas Township Patrolman Robert Jolley, assisted by the Pennsylvania State Police Fire Mashal and State Police Trooper Sylvester Myers, are investigating the cause of the May 22 blaze. Arson [ires are often difficult to investigate and prosecute because normally there are no wilnesses and little circumstantial evidence to follow up on, Chief Miers said. “Luckily, in this case we have plenty of evidence and hope to make an arrest soon," Miers said. “We may file other charges in connection with the fire." Miers said that before police in Luzerne Counly can arrest an arson suspect, they must first present the entire case and all evidence to the district attorney for review and approval. “There's plenty of evidence,” Miers said. “I feel confident that an arrest will be made soon.” And as the rest of the Back Mountain sleeps, the neighbors of Roushey Plot nervously watch one another's yards, looking for clues or connections, ready to help if another fire breaks out. And praying that there won't be an- other one. To Region 1: Allen Moss Irene Brislin RD R D 93/115 129/68 197/212 51/34 Lake Twp.

Peoplcofien see sickness as a manifestation of bad luck and health as a manifestation of good luck. "Everyone clse in my fam- ily had the flu, but I was lucky, all I caught was a little cold.” If everyone who lives in your environment and cats the same food gets sick and youdo not, it is not a matter of luck. There is something you are doing to raise the resistance of your body, something that the rest of the family is not doing. The first concept that must be un- derstood is that the human body was meant to function properly, healing itself when injured, and fighting off ~ invasive bacteria and viruses. The | human organism was designed to live ~ over one hundred years. There are people who live that long and it is not a matter of luck. If their bodies are capable of lasting one hundred years, then yours should be also. Chiropractors have found that a nervous system functioning properly is a prerequisite to a healthy body. Every cell in the body is directly or indirectly controlled by the nervous system, according to Gray's Anatomy, a standard medical text. Subluxations of the vertebral col- umn, which are minor misalignments that interfere with the function of the nervous system, will cause the body to function with less efficiency. This will causc the body to manifest less than true health every time. This is not the way the body was designed to func- tion. However, it docs occur. The frightening partis that most of the time an individual is not cven aware that this’ interference is present. Subluxations do not cause any symp- toms. But if thc subluxation is present long enough and the body is not cx- pressing full health, cventually sick- ness and discase may occur. Chiro- practors do not treat sickness and dis- ease. Thatis the objective of medicine. Chiropractors correct subluxations, a cause of the body functioning at less that 100%. Only chiropractors correct subluxations. Chiropractic is abso- lutely essential for any person who wants his or her body to function as it was designed to do.

DOVE EARLY MORNING FIRE — Firefighters battled an early-morning blaze Monday, May 31, which completely destroyed a vacant garage on Eighth Street near Municipal Road in Franklin Township. Franklin Twp. fire termed suspicious By GRACE R. DOVE Post Staff The Pennsylvania State Police Fire Marshal has been asked to investigate an early morning fire Monday, May 31, which destroyed the old Emanuel bus garage in Franklin Township on Eighth Street near Municipal Road and disrupted telephone service to the eastern section of the township for several hours. According to the Franklin Township Fire Company's log, the vacant structure was fully en- gulfed in flames by the time that firefighters from Franklin Town- ship, Franklin-Northmoreland, Trucksville, Shavertown and Mount Zion arrived on the scene shortly after 1:15 a.m. For a short time a nearby home was threatened by the flames, which also damaged overhead power lines, which will have to be replaced. Visible from the upper end of Flat Rock Road, the fire cast a bright orange glow into the sky over the treetops, while hoses snaked for a half a mile down Flat Rock Road and up Eighth Street tothefire scene and tankers bring- ing water to the scene shuttled back and forth from area creeks. Eighth Street, the lower end of Flat Rock Road and Orange Road were shut down for several hours. Seventy-five firefighters battled the blaze, which twice flared up in small spots later Monday and. Monday evening. Franklin Town- ship assistant chief Jeff Sudol said that the Memorial Day fire was the second at the old garage since mid-fall. “Whenever wedon't - know the cause of a fire, we call in. the fire marshal to investigate it,” Sudol said. He expected the in-- vestigation to be slightly delayed’ by the three-day holiday.
