My only regret in giving Sacramento County to Mr. Flory was losing my two largest chapters at Stonegate Mobile Park and Olympic Mobile Lodge.

We also decided against having a general manager to coordinate our group and drive for membership. It was of the general opinion that of each Director would keep his or her associated informed of all activities we will accomplish much more and save $15,000.

Tough fire hydrant standards proposed . Tougher standards for fire hydrants and water systems that feed them in new subdivisions may be adopted by Nevada county. The board of supervisors Tuesday studied regulations proposed by the Nevada County Fire Prevention Association, then ordered that they be put into formal legal language. After that is done, public hearings will. be held by the county planning commission which then will recommend final action to the board. The standards proposed are these: --Six inch water mains would be the minimum allowed. At present, there are many fourinch mains, which provide less than half the water volume of six-inch mains, fire officials said. --Mains would have to produce at least 500 gallons of flow per minute. Many now are inthe 300-gallon range, it was stated. --Hydrants could not be located more than 500 feet apart, something which again is not always the case in current development. --Hydrants could not be more than six feet from the road. A Bullion Fire Department official told of a hydrant at Alta Sierra which is down in a canyon, making it hard to reach and hard to find. --Hydrants would have to be frost proof. Fire officials and supervisors agreed on the need for this to assure that water will be available if a house catches fire. --Each hydrant would be required to have a gate valve between the water main and riser, This would allow revairs without shutting down the entire system. The supervisors questioned some points, but made no basic changes in the fire association's proposal, Supervisor Henry Loehr asked what would be done in cases where not enough water is available to provide 500 gallons of flow per minute. Public Works Director Harry Hider replied that this could be corrected by storage tanks. There was general agreement that some exceptions will have to be made. There are areas, it was noted, which.do not have enough flow because they don't have any Nevada Irrigation District supply and depend on wells, In such case's, the hydrants and lines may be required, but the flow requirement may be waived until it is feasible. There was a debate whether subdivisions using wells should be included in the requirements or excluded entirely. The majority felt the rules should apply to such cases, but that exceptions could be requested. six original buildings that have been faithfully restored. attendants dress in the costumes of the original Shakers to the delight of amateur photographers from all across the land.

In fact, the foot contains more than one-fourth of all of the bones in the body. “The human foot deserves much more care than it usually receives,” said a prominent medical researcher this week, “and this is especially true in the case of our growing older citizens.” William O. Elson, medical research director for the Kendall Company, makers of Blue-Jay foot products, pointed out: “Summertime puts extra strain on the feet of everyone; but the older person — and we. have about 20 million people over 65 — must be especially careful.” Four persons in every five have trouble with their feet, according to the scientist. They, and particularly all senior citizens, would be wise to observe these precautions: 1. Care should be taken that all shoes fit properly. Shoes which are too small, too tight, or which have heels that are too high are the cause of most foot troubles. 2. Feet should be kept clean and well treated with lanolin, glycerin, or baby oil if they tend to be very dry or chap. 3. Aerosol foot powders and deodorants, new to the market, such as Blue-Jay powder, will keep feet hygienic and comfortable. 4. Irritated spots can be eased with moleskin or foam ~ rubber pads. 5. Corns and callcuses should be removed. Effective home remedies are readily available; the kinds which contain phenylium are especially reliable. 6. Diabetics are advised to consult their doctor when any cut, bruise, or blister develops on the foot. 7. Inexpensive, but effective, arch-supports which.contain their own foam rubber insoles are now available in most drug stores and will ease pains caused by strained arches. ‘ 8.
