severe electrical storm In more than a generation struck this vicinity last night. Tlie storm broke about 11 o'clock and continued until after midnight. Fla.shes of forked lightning took place every few minutes, followed by loud peals of thunder. Reports today state that mast women and children were very badly as some of them had never wit- nes.sed such a display before. One of the switches at the power hou.sc in Potter valley was put out of commission and the Willits street llght-s were off for the balimce of the night.

Tills morning the trouble shooters for the power company received numerous calls to make adjustments. Rsxin accompanied the storm and it has been coming down, at Intervals, all day long with a good prospect for continuing. The rain comes mast opportunely for this and most peoiJlo hope that we get several Inches before It stops.

First Aid Statioivs Two first aid stations will be established In northern Mendocino county, one aL Lane's redwood flat and the other at Empire.

In addition to this. Dr. R. A. Babcock will keep a se( ond emergency ambulance at Lane's flat to bring the Injured to the Howard Memorial haspital when the coses are serious.

The first meeting of the Willits chapter of the American Red Crass under the new setup was held at our high school last night at which 43 adults were pre.sent.

The station at Lane's flat will be under the direction of John Foster and Herman Holden. At Empire W. L. Caldor and Charles Richler have been assigned this duty. Some one will be on duty at these stations every how of the day and night.

Another station may be establshed later at LaytonvUle, but this depends on how much support the people of that locality give the Red Crass. Half of the proceeds from the roll call drives are retained by the local chapters and at present the Willits area includes all that portion of the county along the Redwood highway to the Humbold line. The Willits Red Cross committee consists of Ray Ritchel, chairman, M. E. Potter, Dr.

"Uklah chapter of the Cro.ss has begun a campaign to eliminate accl- hazards in the home today," H. M. Burke, chairman of the local chapter, "for the purpose of making the homes of this community safe. Home accidents are due to carelessness, negligence and lack of knowledge and most of them are preventable. "Millions of people are Injured In the home each year.

Last year more than 34,000 were killed, and the number permanently disabled by accidents In the home ran Into six figures. People do not that the home is not safe, and It Is the purpose of this Red Cross program to correct this, to out common and uncommon home Iiaz- ards and show how each may be eliminated and to conduct an actual Inspection of the homos of this commimlty." A program of this nature. It Is pointed out. Is of necessity largely educational in character. The local chapter will campaign against dis-interest and fallacy through the medium of the written and spoken word.

A comprehensive public speaking Ls being arranged in an intensive effort to make children and parents aware of the very real danger which lurks the home Itself. The generous cooperation of new.spnpers and varloiw publications have been enlisted. Individuals, civic and social clubs and business groups are being contacted. Many have already pledged their aid. A number of national organizations have signified their willingness to help the Red Cross minimize home accidents and the close cooperation of the local branches of these organizations is anticipated.

Special home Inspection forms have been prepared, and are to be Introduced into the homes here through the children in our schools. Arrangements have been made with school superintendents, principals and teachers that school SNOOKS HAVE DAUGHTER An eight-pound daughter was bom at the Ukiah General hospital last Stm- day to Mr. and Mrs. Earl Snook; the second child.

Dixon, promnient Fort business man, was In town on jury duty this week. children will receive these blanks, take them homo and conduct an actual inspection of the home to eliminate accident-causing hazards, with the help of parents or relatives, and return the blanks to the where they will be forwarded to the Red Cross for compilation of statistics to Indicate what type of home acclcicnt hazard Is mo.st prevalent. Tlip committee in charge of this special program lia.s Mrs, E. A. Eversole as Tills home safety campaign, it Is understood, win also Include farm safety and safety at work on the farm.

Because of the Inaccessibility of farms and the difficulty of securing accident statistics pertaining to them, little safety pioneering has been done In this direction. Preventing unnecessary death and alleviating human misery is a charter obligation of the Red Cross, and home safety Ls a natural outgrowth of First Aid, a Red Cross senicc wlilch has been in effect for some 25 years and is an- ually for saving many lives. The accident prevention campaign will be can-led out on a nation-wide scale and each of the nearly 13,000 Red Cross chapters and branches will play a part. The campaign will not be au intensive affair of a few montlis and subsequently dropped, but rather, will be a continuing, year-by-year program to prevent unnecessary deaths and accidents in the home and on the farm. The Red Crass believes tliat knowledge of first aid wUl do much to prevent home accidents.

A person instructed in first aid is accident coivscious; and when an accident does occur in the home, the practical application of first aid knowiedge may prevent a minor injury from crippling, a serious Injury from killing.

As 90 per cent of all mineral matter in the bone structure of all animals is calcium and phosporous, the necessity of a plentiful supply of these minerals is self- evident.

However, tests conducted by various State and Government agricultural authorities show that the Pacific Coast states are deficient in these minerals. To overcome the mineral deficiency use Farmers' Club Stock Mineral $1.75 Cwt. which contains a high percentage of calcium phospate. Give your stock the minerals they need..
