PTO Hears Civil Defense Program By Sally Taylor PIONEER ...... On March 6 the Pioneer PTO presented a program: on Civil Defense given by Barrie Stroud, radiological coordinator for the Shelton area. By the use of charts, an atomic explosion was shown with its effect on man and areas that radio active fallout would cover after explosions. An actual demonstration of radio ac- tive material enclosed in lead was given and its degree of penetra- tion on a geiger counter was ra- ther startling. A movie was then shown on the scientific uses of atomic energy in research and in the treatment of various diseases. Controlled use of such energy can be paralled with electricity-- used correctly for man's benefit, it need not be feared. Electricity is a tremendous force man made, awesome. Put to use lighting: homes, furnishing heat, and power for factories it seems harmless, misused, however, can bring in- stant death. If one will stop and think care- fully atomic energy has been .with us always in the sun's rays, as part of the ground we walk on. All over the world radiation has been going on for millions of years. Nature has been in balance. When man disturbs this balance a chain reaction begins, similar to the cell division of an atom. Where will it end, what will the results be, who can forsee, out- think and compensate for changes unimaginable. There are wise, brilliant men in. all corners of our world. Are any of them willing to play God for a moment? This question will re- main part of our lives for years to come. HAS ANYONE SEEN a six- month-old female police dog some- where in the Mason Lake road dis- trict? She belonged to the Max Mikkelsens and so far all efforts to locate the dog have failed. She is tan with a black back and has a recent scar or her stomach. The dog was quite a family pet and its mother has died since her disap- pearance, leaving quite a void in their canine world. New neighbors out Agate way are Mr. and Mrs. Bunnel, who have purchased the J. W. Boone property. Mrs. Bunnel called and asked me to thank all the kind neighbors who came to their as- sistance helping extinguish grass fire that got out of hand. It was quite a blaze.
