A radiological demonstration was presented by Mr. Hakala, who is information officer of the federal office of civil defense mobilization. He stated that now is the time to prepare for a nuclear war. Radiation is dangerous in large amounts and if ah attack occurs, close windows and doors and stay indoors for at least two days. He demonstrated with food articles,what you should expect if exposed to radiation. He had a gadget whiph would give loud beeping sounds if an object had been contaminated. He used lettuce, a banana and a bag of potato chips for examples. By carefully removing the outer layers of the lettuce the inside had no radiation irnd would be fit to eat. The bag the chips were in had a lot of radiation, but the chips had none and were edible. He proved this by eating them. If canned goods are exposed you can clean the lid with rubbing alcohol, open, and the contents would be edible. Preparedness is the watch word.

Jean Peterson and Dorothy Miller. With Memorial Day onlj^i month away this columnist feels there is a need to reeducate the people on flag etiqnet. As the flag passes- in review, gentlemen should remdve their hats and place them over their hearts. If the men are in the service, a safute is forthcoming. Ladies place their right hands over their. hearts. Respect must be shown to flag at all times, not just ing a parade. So many take our flag for granted and, forget what it stands for. The Stars and Stripes stand for freedom and we, as Americans, should see that it stays that way; Citizens should remember these things without being reminded. Let this Memorial Day be one of true respect to osr falgs : 9 Happiness, health and prosperity all seem to be the result of a harmonious adjustment of one's abilities to the surroundings in which one finds himself.
