FFA Lists Cause Of Farm Fires The Waukesha FFA Safety committee is stressing "The Big Three" causes of farm fires in Wisconsin.

What would you do if you had a lerious farm fire on your farm today? Do you take chances with your life? Are you as careful as you think? Without even realizing it you may be taking chances every day with fire. Fire hazard isn't just a term to frighten you. Thousands of fires have been caused by conditions and practices which are fire hazards. If you don't want to risk losing your family, and your life, the sensible thing is to check your home and habits for fire hazards. "The Big Three" arc as follows: matches and smoking, misuse of electricity and petroleum and its products.

The careless smoker causes 25 per cent of all fires by careless use of matches and smoking materials. Misuse of electricity is the cause of over 12 per cent of all the fires. Some causes of these is by overloading electrical circuits, the use of electric cords that are worn out or frayed and by repairing defective electrical appliances by yourself. The last cause of "The Big Three" is petroleum and its products. They cause 9 per cent of the country's fires.

These causes are using kerosene to quicken a fire, or anyone using gasoline to do home dry cleaning jobs. Don't use inflammable liquids in home. If you need to use them, keep those liquids outside of the house in safety cans. Here are some important rules to remember if you smoke or use matches: 1. Don't smoke in bed.

2 Don't throw lighted matches or butts OUT of car windows or in wastehaskeN 3. Don't leave a cigarette cigar or pipe on a chair or table and forget about them. 4. Don't leave matches around where children can reach them.

Morgan S.J., assistant pastor of Gesu church in Milwaukee, at the recenl Home and School association meet ing at St.

Mary's in Elm Grove. "In a real Catholic home," said Father Morgan, "we should fine peace, ease, a place to relax, and here seek our entertainment. We must also work for a very happj home. "The basic essentials of a happ home," said the Jesuit, "call for both parties being practicing Ca tholics with love existing between husband and wife; there must be intelligence; religion should be taught and practiced in the home and there should exist the hope for children." Father Morgan stressed that a happy home is based on a happy marriage and a happy marriage is based on real love. He said that working out a successful marriage is based on intelligence.

"Avoid too much sentimentality and worry," said Father Morgan "trust in God and you will fine peace. Teach religion to infants by example and prayers said aloud and indulge in family prayers. "God has planted In the heart of each woman the desire to have children. This is a natural instinct," he said, "keep this hope alive throughout the course of your marriage." Father Morgan urged the practice of religion in daily life with holy pictures, statues, and the crucifix in the home and in the office He said Catholics should be prouc of their religious heritage which is backed by 2000 years of culture "And don't forget the he advised wives.

CLEARVIEW HOME Plan Spring Dedication sSssfi (Freeman Staff Photo) Nursing Home of Christian Scientists Is Show pi ace in Del a field By POLLY MCNULTY DELAFIELD--A Delafield nursing home which has been operating since 1948 will not be formally dedicated until sometime i spring. Dedication of Clearview, a nursing home for Christian Scientists located a quarter mile east of the downtown section on old highway 30, will take place, under Christian Science principles, when the institution is entirely clear of debt.

A pioneer in small nursing homes for Christian Scientists in the U.S., Clearview is a spacious elegant home where guests from all over the country are treated by Christian Science methods. The first things a guest is likely to notice upon arriving are that the food is excellent, the surroundings attractive and the accommodations comfortable and orderly. "An institution with no institutionalized feeling," says Chester C. Muth, Milwaukee, president of the board of directors. "The emphasis is upon a cheerful, homelike atmosphere and everything possible is done to preserve it." A survey of the 14 room home bears him out.

Each of the large, airy bedrooms contains, in addition to a bed, a table and lounge chair, all in metal to reduce fire hazard. Occasionally a chaise lounge is added for the greater comfort of guests and two 16 23 rooms have fireplaces. Bathrooms, too, are attractively decorated in salmon, green and blue tiles. Draperies and wallpaper throughout the house are in bright, cheerful harmonizing patterns. "Color adds so much to our home," explains Miss Erlene Mi- kow, assistant manager.

"Take our dining room, for example. bright, blue delphinium wallpaper is a real challenge in the spring to the carpet of scilla in the lower front garden. A large picture window enables guests to enjoy the garden while eating. The garden and other features of the five acre estate have made it a leading show-place in the county for nearly half a century. Built about 1916 by Miss Mary Banks, it was landscaped to include every tree and shrub indigenous to this part of the country and with an eye to an outdoor pageant i was later given as Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's Dream." The sloping lawns and the stately colonial mansion provided an effective setting for the spectacle which was performed entirely by townspeople.

The estate was left by Miss Banks to the Episcopal diocese of Chicago, but was later sold to Mr. and Mrs. John Staab who owned it until 1947 when it was, purchased by Clearview Home Corp. Six men, five from Milwaukee and one from Racine, primarily are responsible for the nursing home which was purchased, remodeled and equipped at a cost of about 5125,000. One major change was the conversion of a four-car garage on the west wing into a nurse's quarters where rooms are pleasant and comfortable.

The Delafield home is a nonprofit institution supported by voluntary donations and governed by a board of nine directors serve three year terms and are eligible for reelection. First woman board member was Mrs. H. Verna filing, Rt. 3, Waukesha, who has served five years.

Although there are many nursing homes for Christian Scientists throughout the U.S., Clearview is one of only eight that are approved by the nursing homes committee of The Mother Church of Boston which means that the home and staff are governed by rules provided by the parent church Other authorized homes are in New York. Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Colorado, California and Missouri. Over 1600 visitors from all over the country attended the house given by Clearview in August, 1948, indicating the strong interest in this kind of development among Christian Scientists. Purpose of the home is to induce healing under Christian Science treatment and as one means to this end, amplifiers have been installed in each room so that bed patients may benefit from the daily morning readings found in authorized Christian Science literature. Afternoons, classical music is carried through the amplifying system.

Visiting past readers churches in Wisconsin conduct formal Christian Science services in the living room each Sunday afternoon. "People come to the home suffering with many afflictions," Mr. Muth said, "and it is gratifying to see that the Christly ministrations provided by Clearview have contributed much to the success of healing the afflicted." Clearview is managed by Miss Sina Liebe, Madison, a sih er blond woman of medium build energy and intelligent management are in no small way responsible for the home's first place rating last year by the nursing homes committee of Wisconsin. She is assisted in her tasks, in addition to Miss Mikow, by four nurses, a housekeeper and a cook and her assistant. Accommodations at the home are for 14.

Its location near a main highway and the North Western shipping line will provide shipping outlets. According to George Renner, president, twice in the ten years of its existence it was necessary to expand because of increasing business demands. Additional equipment will be installed in the new building to enlarge the manufacturing scope. The Renner plant which manufactures parts for power shovels, paper mills and various other industries in Milwaukee, will be of concrete and structural steel.

The company expects to employ about 50 persons and will be ready for occupancy about the end of June. Mrs. Don Essel will be guest soloist at the meeting of the United Council of Church Women at the West Mis Methodist church Wed- nesday. If you wish to attend please contact Mrs. Lawrence Seyfer.

Servicemen Get To Know New Color TV Sets NORTH LAKE Over nine hundred servicemen were treated to a "How-to-do-it" lecture on Color TV, recently in Milwaukee, according to Lester H. Wegner of North Lake. Radio Corporation of America representatives presented clinic which was sponsored by RCA distributors in the Milwaukee, Madison, and Racine area If you could not get TV service from someone in this area then, was because every serviceman was in Milwaukee learning how to set up and seruce the new Color TV sets. 'New.

expensive test equipment will be necessary for the color television serviceman to ferret out the faults in the many electrical circuits that have been added to the black and circuits to make color reproduction possible," said Wegner. The TV doctor will also find it necessaiy to learn all about color and the results of mixing colors in the "Additive System" which is somewhat opposite to the Subtractive System obtained when mixing colors as in paint. Mixing red green and blue in the TV set makes white, where mixing these same colors paint results in black or dark brown. It has been found that a greater range of color sensation is obtainable in the Color TV by mixing red, green and blue light than is possible in Color printing or photography. Some owners of the present black and white television sets have the mistaken idea that they can convert their present sets by merely removing the black and white picture tube and slipping in a color picture tube, said Wegner.

The color picture tube or Kinescope as it is technically known is a much more complicated piece of equipment than its black and white counterpart. The first Tri-color Kinescopes will use-a fifteen inch round glass envelope that will give a picture size of UVs" by with rounded sides. A glass plate in the front of the picture tube is coated witfi an orderly array of blue, green, and red dots. There are 195,000 dots of each color making a total of 585,000 dots all placed in exact positions. This astonishing feat is accomplished by a photographic process.

Approximately away this tri-color screen is placed a shadow mask, which is a plate of special metal. This metal contains 195,000 holes which must be in precise alignment with the colored dots on the screen so that the electrons from the guns in the neck of the tube will strike the desired colors. The Tri-color Kinescope i have twelve electrical connections and a voltage of twenty thousand, as against six connections for the black and white picture tube with a voltage of only ten thousand. The present color television sets will require about forty tubes where the black and white sets a twenty to twenty-five tubes so one can readily see that conversion of black and white sets to color television is not possible.
