Fires Seriously
Threaten Defense
Production-Hall
AUSTIN, Feb. 11—Reports of
fires during January to Texas Fire
Insurance Department, described
as revealing a serious increase in
the number of fires, prompted Mar
vin Hall, State Fire Insurance
Commissioner to issue an appeal
for greater individual effort in fire
prevention.
“Fires constitute one of our most
serious threats to nations defense
and our nation’s all-out war pro
duction,” he asserted. “As an in
dividual contribution to our own
welfare, as well as the welfare
] of our country, it behooves each of
us to assume more personal re
sponsibility in fire prevention
now.
“At a time when all material re
sources are so vital to our nations
industrial production, we can ill
afford to allow any of it to be
destroyed by fire because of care
lessness. Any destruction of our
resources, whether it be food,
clothing, raw or manufactured
materials, homes or other proper
ty, places an additional handicap
on wartime effort. We must curb
the economic toll exacted by fire.”

AT THE TOP OF THE LIST
Question of the Week: Would you
rather go back on the old sched
ule under Central War Time than
continue on the “late” schedule
adopted last Monday?
“Chuck” Chalmers, G Field Ar
tillery—Personally, I wouldn’t. As
things stand we still get as much
sleep as we normally did before.
If we started getting up at 6:15
War Time, it would mean a cut of
one hour in the amount of sleep
that I’m accustomed to getting,
and, man, I enjoy my sleep. An
hour cut from my sleeping sched
ule would probably mean that I
would make it up in class.
R. W. Ruisinger, A Infantry—
Yes. I would rather go back on the
old time schedule, because those
who wish to hitch-hike somewhere
are forced to start an hour later
under the new schedule.
W. A. Phillips, B Cavalry—I
would rather go back to the old
time schedule because there would
be less confusion with the sur
rounding environment.

A TTENTION!
Aggieland
You are invited to witness the Most Amazing
'TRACTOR DEMONSTRATION

A Revolutionary New Principle in
Modern Tractor Farming
Your eyes will pop wide open when you see the FORD

won’t believe that any one tractor can do all the
things this tractor actually does until you see it per
form. It puts to shame and out-maneuvers old-style
tractors half again as big—brings a new era of prof
itable farming, at surprisingly low cost.
Profit By Seeing These Free Demonstrations:
Main Agricultural Experiment Station Farm, i/I Mile
West of Campus. Arranged especially for A. & M.
Students and Faculty
Four Big Days - - - Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday
Demonstrations beginning 10 A.M. and 2 P.M.

In the interest of increasing war-time farm produc
tion these demonstrations are being conducted under
