(Continued from page 5) Watch what you are doing and keep in perfect control of your mower by keeping in step wiin it. Don t run, lag behind or let it pull you. You won't be in full command of the machine. Your wife, children, neighbors or pets should not stand nearby, nor should your children run alongside or in front of the mower. Of particular danger is the discharge chute, or the side where your mower spits out grass and other material it chews up. The operator is more completely protected than bystanders. Remove entangled grass and weeds only after the engine has been turned off. Disconnect the spark plug wire so the motor won't start whenever you need to work on the undersidp of thp mower. Tip mower over by the handle. Don't reach underneath. Learn how to disengage the clutch or stop mower quickly in case of emergency. Shut the motor off whenever you leave the mower. A mower with the motor running and no adult around is highly attractive to the little boy next door. Clean off the mower and inspect underneath for anything caught up in mower after you finish mowing. Allow mower to cool before storing. Fires result from the accumulation of combustibles SlU'h as tJrass and crasnlinn r?n hot engines. Have your mower checked every year. Set the blades always at the correct cutting point; don't overspeed your engine by tampering with the governor. Keep your fuel in a tightly spalpd mptal font.'iinor and store in a safe place where the children cannot get to it or kick it over. "Life in some parts of the world is a regular riot."

Some r even prefer to deny its ex is- j-( tence. f, A simple examination of this paradox reveals how ridiculous this is. p The word "profit" means to " gain, as from a business trans- f( action or a service. n If this is so. then does it s follow that a business man p should apologize because he makes a living from profits he has earned? Or does it mean i he should not accept money in exchange for a service? Or, ? perhaps, it means that having worked a bit harder he should not expect greater rewards? c Actually, what is profit but r merely money received for c money earned ? yes, earned c through self-initiative and a t sense of pride in one's work. c For countless numbers of c years men have been trying a different p 1 an s to make c money.

But that wasn't bad luck, that accident didn't just happen, it was no act of God. It was just a case of an accident being caused. It wasn't intentional. but it was caused just the same. And it could Number of Hospital Beds Will Increase A vast rise in the number of hospital beds in this country is foreseen. In 1960 there were about 1.628,000 beds available. Bv 1 9 7 5, about 3,243,000 beds are expected to be needed. Reasons for this increase are based on several factors. A population growth to about 230,000,000 by 1975.

This is the age group which needs hospital care and advanced medical care the most. The greatest part of the average hospital's expense budget goes for labor. A hos pital cannot cut costs and maintain high standards of patient care without reducing personnel. Thus, a major solution appears to tie in laborsaving equipment. Therefore, the use of disposable supplies is increasing Also, if equipment is used onlv once and then discarded the chances of cross-infection are reduced. Disposable equipment reduces the need for storage space and saves many hours of cleaning, sterilization and preparing supplies for re-use. Have You Noticed? Some suburbanites with 18,00 0 square feet of land have more power operated equipment to take care of their holdings than some farmers with a hundred acres to operate.
