1,000 CHICKENS BURNED
AT THE MASONIC HOMES

Nearly one thousand Leghorn
chickens perished in a blaze at the
Elizabethtown Masonic Homes chic-
ken house Friday evening. Origin
of the fire is unknown, firemen and
Masonic officials say.
The home of Wayne Long, about
twenty-five feet from the chicken
house, was threatened by the in-
tense blaze. It was discovered by
Elvy Long, Wayne's brother, who
summoned the Elizabethtown Fri-
endship Fire company.
A group from the Elizabethtown
College, returning from Lancaster,
the blaze and were the first
vclunteers. They carried the fur-
niture out of Wayne Long's home.
The chicken house burned to the
ground.

PREVENTION SAVES MANY
DOLLARS

Each year, by presidential proc-

what is known as Fire Prevention
Week. This year, according to Dr.
M. Ranck, chairman of the Fire
Prevention Committee of the Lan-
caster County Firemen’s Associa-
tion, it will be this week, October
6-13. It is for the purpose of em-
vhasizing fire prevention and how
this form of property destruction
can be avoided. As in crime, an
ounce of prevention is more valu-
able in the final analysis.
There is need to warn citizens
of the perils of fire, the attendant
