The tiny tots were landed cuddly black -and white pdndas, some of the younger lads received burp guns, dart games, or other mechanical toys, while the older misses were thrilled with oil points sets, Campbell soup kits, or dishes to mention a few varieties of the fabulous presents. Each child also received a well filled stbcking, The men of the McCullom Lake Social and Athletic Club who luitped Santa Claus with his generbsity were Dave Hansen, Fred Matthesius, Bill Brennan, A1 Seskd, Bill Schmidt, Len Mager, John Cunningham, and Don Lorch.

Young Chick reports to Ft. Louis, Washington on Jan. 7 with orders for the far east. Hard to Veil where he will be spending his next Christmas. The Sales family has much to be thankful for this year, with Leo weathering the severe heart attacks and coming through with flying colors.

Husband's P^jer What happened to Earl Nelson, most husbands wish would happen to their wives! At least, the jokesters would have us believe so. Earl lost his voice and was unable to speak above a whisper. Mayda and Gene Shigley droppetj. in to spend last Thursday evening with them, and Mayda needed an interpreter to understand what gems of wisdom, Earl was trying to impart.' Speaking of the Nelsons, we understand Elma is an accomplished performer on the pogo stick. That should be quite a sight next summer, when Elma leaps down to the beach, instead of walking! 0 Congrats To Bill Brennan who celebrated his natal day, Friday. Dec. 28.

In addition, an average of thirty persons die every day as a result of all fires in the United States. And an untold number are horribly burned or maimed fotj- life. On the other hand, many persons, apparently trapped by flames, manage to save their lives becatlse they understand what to do and what not to do in case of fire, the National Board of Fire Underwriters reports. Here's what you should, do: 1. Be prepared. Recognizing the possibility that fire may strike your home, decide now how you could save your life were you tonight to awake and smell smoke. * - 2. Figure out two possible routes to the ground from any upstairs bedroqm. It is unlikely that both escape" routes would be cut off by flames during the early stage of the fire. 3. If a fire starts, arouse everyone in the house. Make it $our fi^t duty to get everyon^ out of the house. 4. Call the fire department immediately.
