Man alone is an inadequate being, subject to the limitations of humanity. Early in his development, it becomes clear to him that if he is to live a fruitful life, he must learn to escape the confining naturalness of this world and to grasp a supreme, intangible power. Regardless of his choice of faith, this force becomes a living part of him, born and encouraged withing significant to him as his private communion with this spiritual influence. The value of this trust becomes more noticeable to him each day of life, for it provides that essential assurance of peace of mind and soul, nowhere to be found upon this earth. ,s..c,..m .W . .- 9 ln this high-strung society of ours, life often becomes so complex that treasured moments of peace and seclusion come only when we force ourselves to pause: to stop and breathe the magnificence of Nature and her Creator. Once an individual can marvel at the wonderment of Nature and exclude the tensions of today. he has overcome a looming barrier in his path of progress. He will then be able to appreciate and discover the restfulness found in solitude with the untouched earth, bursting forth with its natural enchantment and simplicity. This drink of serenity and tranquillity can urge him to continue, to conquer what seemed the impossible.

Until he has matured, this boy probably will never realize the inlluence this police force has upon his life. Upon the shoulders of these men rest not only the responsibility to protect but also the responsibility to insure peace of mind within the community. As the young child becomes acquainted with this protecting part of our community, he begins to realize the necessity for self-acquired standards which will help him in his decisions between right and wrong. With these decisions made, he discovers that the laws he once thought were to punish were made only to protect. In his matured eyes he sees the police as a means to keep security in his home and peace in his community. ....-..,..... ..-W H- ...A-. . . This fire station, like all others in the world, holds fascination and delight for everyone, especially young children. Hardly a day goes by without a group of bubbling, energetic youngsters, homeward bound from school, stopping to gaze in awe at the bright, shiny, red- faced fire engine. The young boy visualizes himself as a tire chief and thinks only ofthe thrill of riding the speeding truck with its shrieking siren. The danger our firemen face and the inconveniences they bear never enters his mind. His dreams slowly fade as he approaches maturity, for he begins to appreciate fully the responsibility these men willingly accept-the responsibility of saving homes and people, and keeping the dreams of little boys alive. 1' s I ' '-.4 , A' - . -N i ' ., l' - ful z,.z..,,, A i K M- -M A e ' Mk' ' 'X , 'QQ ' iyffii Ti Af' ' , any ,Q ' ' ' w l ati., i .saw -1 st- X., -' N X ' Y ,.,, q:.:.XXX Y is Xu v..x:p.fs-X W -- P s flffzw-si 1'-11 t .. -X - Q WMMW-1 fl T ' x . wr keiiil f -J ,TQM A' W Xy rff '?gw- .
