Fl REM AN» FIRE PROBLEMS
Twice within the week, the Eu
gene fire department has had to
send men and equipment miles in
to the country to help check fires.
The Coburg fire entailix! $35.000
loss. The Elmira fire was much
less costly, but it could have been
very bad. Of course, this to an I
exceptionally dry sesan. The an
nual fire hazard has arrived early.
It is time now to start getting
rid of weeds and brush and al)
other factors in fire menace. But
it ix time also to think again of
Home definite and comprehensive
plan for fire protection in rural
and suburban districts. ‘Eugene
will never refuse an emergency
call, we hope. Rut Eugene has
scarcely enough mon and pum|>s
for its own needs. We need rural
fire districts to deal with this
problem in much the same manner
in which high school problems and
costs are distributed. Fire pro- j
tection is cheaper always than
fire
loss.”

Apropos of this same subject, a
deputy state fire marshal will
speak at the Silk Creek school
house Tuesday evening, June 14.
Silk Creek is making a compre
hensive investigation as to what
can be done in the matter of fire
prevention and control in rural
districts.
Quite recently E. W.
Ashley appeared before the City
Council of Cbttage Grove asking
if the City Fire Department could j
give aid in rural fires. They re
plied that they could not leave
the city without fire protection.

The Sentinel believes It voices
the sentiment of the community
in expressing regret that Cottage
Grove does not have adequate
fire equipment to aid rural sec

tage Grove committee" might
aid the Silk Creek community in
their attempt to secure a solution
to the problem.

“Chumming up" may look like a
modern phrase, but 100 years ago
it was common in English prisons.
Newly-arrived prisoners were beat

until they
chummed-up, or donated a certain
turn of money to their fellows.

ARCADE—June 12,13,14
You may use to
getting into
In today’s stop-and-go driving, you’re always
shifting gears.
When in “low,” your engine makes about
12 turns for each turn of the wheels ... in
“second,” about 8...in “high,” only about 4.
That’s why, in your stop-and-go driving
around home, ONE mile on your speedometer
may be TWO miles to your engine. It depends
on how much of the driving is in low and
second gears.
Shell engineers found that getting into high
gear from a single stop can waste enough“un-
digested" gasoline to carry you 1/5 of a mile.
To cut this waste, they rearranged the
chemical structure of gasoline, making every
drop usable under all driving conditions.
