In New England, New York, New Jersey and Maryland flames roared through valuable timber, burned outbuildings and some somes, injured firefighters, and hampered heavy Sunday traffic. AN ENTIRE village in Rhode Island was evacuated as fire fighters failed to turn back vi cious fire, traveling at explosive speed through a stand of pine. Apparatus was called from other fires by radio to make a stand against the blaze. The fire which imperilled the village on the Shannock Hill road was one of several big blazes still raging in Rhode Island. The state's veteran fire fighters said the epidemic, with 10 major fires and innumerable smaller ones burning 6000 acres in fi day, was the worst in the state in their memory. VOLUNTEER fire departments had no sooner turned one big forest fire away from the Atomic Energy Commission's Brookhaven Laboratories on Long Island when another fire began to creep toward the big research center Sunday. A fire in the Northern Berk shires in Massachusetts damaged Ashintully Villa, a 35-room show place once owned by the late Robb de Peyster Tytus, famed archeolo gist. Meanwhile urban fire took the lives of four children at Ellicott City, Md., and a 32-year-old war veteran at South Salem, Mass. At Fairview, N.J., fire raged Sunday in 4000 tons of baled paper at the Southern Trucking Co. ter minal, and a fire official said it "may burn for days."

The thing that always has puz zled me about neat people is their intolerance. They are reformers at heart. They are never satisfied merely with being neat them serves. They want everybody else to be neat, too. This is a violation of individual rights. A person is as legally free to be disorderly as he is to be neat, so long as he doesn't in fringe on the liberty of others. For my part, I can see more ad vantages in being disorderly than being neat. Neatness isn't always a virtue. Most people aren t neat beoause they really have a rest less passion to put everything in pigeonholes. They believe there is a place for everything and every. thing should be in its place, They reel that life is like a bingo game! If they keep putting the right but tons on the right numbers bingo! THE TROUBLE with this theory is life just doesn't operate that way. To get the most out of living you have to be a connois. seur of chaos as well as an advo cate of order. There are some situations and experiences you can't solve with a platitude or tag with a label. They don't fit into patterns, and when a neat person is faced with such a situation he is defeated by it and sometimes destroyed by it. Life has a wonderful, sprawling, aimless quality that only -a dis orderly person can appreciate. Taice sucn common things as thunder and lightning. They tend to make a neat person nervous, as he nates to see the sky disrupted, But a good, rousing thunderstorm is a source of poetic joy to the dis. orderly soul: It brings out the best In him. THE NEAT MAN is frustrated from birth, because his goal is lnv plete order. The only really orderly possiDie tne achievement of com. thing in the world is death, and me most disorderly tnine is life. The closer the neat man comes to his goal that is, the more he catalogs his daily life the more bored he is likely to become. The disorderly man can never become too bored because he never knows what will happen to him next. When the neat man goes to his desk to get out a letter, he knows in dreary certainty just where he will find it. It Is a dull routine. To the disorderly oerson. however. looking for a letter in the mare's nest atop his desk is a real ad venture. Gingerly, he pokes at the lavers of debris that resemble the leaning tower of Pisa. He paws through old letters and re-reads them. He comes upon some theater ticket stubs and recalls the play. He finds a pair of old socks he thought had been lost. It may take him half an hour to find the right letter, but mean while he's been somewhere. Hes lived over a lot of memories, had a pleasant little visit into the past. He emerges refreshed by his small voyage of discovery. But where has the neat man been? he's been only to a dry, cold file. He has learned nothing.

After ten years of utter misery, however, she divorced him, explaining: "H was no fun to live with.
