Ogden when, in the late 1840$, he asked their support in building a railroad from Chicago to the West. They knew that the charter, granted in 1836, had been gathering dust for years. But Ogden, man of vision, was a determined soul, and by the end of 1848 the first ten miles of railroad were! completed. ^The Des Plaines river, near MayWood,' Illinois, was the "end of the line," and on this 10-mile right-of-wiy chugged and swayed the first trains to operate west of Chicago. That same stretch is one of the busiest in the West today. Outl'ne Steps for Acting _ Against Fire Hazards Oily rags, like rubbish, may ignite spontaneously- Burn them if practical; otherwise store them in closed metal containers. Paints, too, should be kept tightly covered. Heating systems should be examined for cracks or other defects, soot, or clogging in chimneys and flues. Repairs should be made promptly. Make sure that no combustible material, including woodwork, is Exposed to heat. Keep ashes in covered metal containers;; shield fireplaces with screens. Replace weather-worn flammable wood shingle roofs with fire-resistant roofing. See that ample ash trays are available wherever smoking is permitted, and that careful smoking habits are cultivated by all members of the family. Put matches in metal containers, out of the reach of small children. Use a flashlight for temporary illumination. Use great care with any flammable liquid brought into the home for any purpose. Do not use flammable cleaning fluids. A correctly built fire needs no kerosene. Replace frayed electric cords, have defective electrical equipment replaced or, repaired by a competent electrician, check the fuse box to see that proper fuses are installed, and see that lamp shades are a safe distance from electric light bulbs. Recharge fire" extinguishers and put them where they wfil be readily accessible if a Are should break out. (By Helen Johnson) Mesdames Viola Low and daughter, Alice Mae, H.

That ships at sea must be ventilated like buildings on land everybody knows, but that they must also "breathe" while under construction everybody does not know. Every hull on the ways has "lungs" in the form of blowers, sheetmetal piping and flexible metal hose. A 20,000-ton hull for a troopship needs nearly two-thirds of a million cflbic feet of air every hour. Hence jumbo blowers are placed at strategic points. Feeder lines from the blowers are tapped at intervals to ventilate the hold by means of air hose. All this apparatus and much piping must be removed before the ship is launched. The engine room needs and gets the most attention. To remove lipstick stains on wssbable materials first loosen the stain by working glycerin or vaseline into it. Then launder as usual. If soap or other alkalies are applied before the stain is loosened, they are apt to set it. On acetate rayon and colored materials, first loosen the stain with vaseline or lard, then sponge with carbon tetrachloride. Then, if a trace of color remains, sponge with denatured alcohol diluted with two quarta of water. ; S? flavor Apple JeSy .
