McHENRY SCHOOLS PARTICIPATE IN FIRE SAFETY Each year more school children join the ranks of junior Are marshals in a program of fire prevention and safety. Schools in McHenry are among 15,000 that participate. One of the first projects for junior fire marshals this school year is an inspection of their homes for fire and safety hazards. With a check list in hand and under the guidance of their parents, the youngsters look for such common causes of fire and accidents as overloaded electrical cords and paints and other flammable liquids left in open containers or stored too close to furnaces. According to the McHenry Agents association, coordinator of the program in cooperation with school and fire department officials, the check list is part of the fall issue of the Junior Fire Marshal magazine, which reaches several million children in the U.S. Each child who turns in a completed Home Safety Report to his or her teacher becomes a Junior Fire Marshal and receives an official badge. While the program's major emphasis is on fire safety, other areas of safety education are covered at different times of the year. This past spring, junior fire marshal sponsored the third annual " Hazards in Nature" campaign to alert children and adults to the recognition of poison ivy, the dangers of wild animal bites, beestings, and eating unkown wild berries and wild mushrooms. Children were shown actual sprigs of poison ivy sealed in clear plastic envelopes. With each chapter of the junior fire marshal program, teachers receive guidance and educational materials to incorporate into classroom instructions. Now in it twenty-first year, this public service of The Hartford Insuran ce Group has reached millions of youngsters with instructions in fire prevention and safety. NEED FOR CREDIT The need for constructive and productive credit will continue to play a dominant role in American Agriculture. This, said Robert E. Coots, manager of the Federal Land Band association of Woodstock, has been brought about by modernization of farms for greater efficiency and the increasing mechanization of the farm needed to replace farm labor lost to other segments of our economy. Mr. Coots, along with seventy-eight other Federal Land Bank managers and associate managers from Illinois, Missouri and Arkansas, spent two days in St. Louis attending a special agricultural credit conference conducted by The Federal Land Bank of St. Louis. In a report of operations, Ralph E. Nowlan, president of The Federal Land Bank of St. Louis, stated that $580 million in long-term loans is outstanding to farmers in the bank's three-state area. " Our projection for the next five years - to 1973 - indicates that The Federal Land Bank of St. Louis will have approximately $1 billion outstanding to farmers in Illinois, Missouri and Arkansas," Nowlan said.
