"Pull down that shade, please."
The speaker is your air raid warden.
You've just turned on a light which is casting its rays across
your lawn and reflecting onto the walls of the house adjoining
yours. ^
This Is a violation of the dimout
regulations. Your air raid warden
has given you time to lower the
shade before calling your atten-tion
to it. He realizes the matter
has slipped your mind and he po-litely
requests you to draw the
shade.
This Js. .happening every .night
everywhere In Freeport. For there
are 830 wardens distributed among
the 17. posts into which the village
has been divided. These men and
women are giving their time to en-forcing
the dimout, regulations nx-ed
by the Government and County
and local defense authorities.
Everyone of tnem has had to
pass an examination to qualify as
&n air raid warden. They receive
no compensation, but are going
about their tasks as a patriotic
duty. Enforcement of dimout reg-a&^

Women's Wor Service
Forced to Move
The Freeport Women's War
Service has got to find* new quar-ters.
The store at 32 South Grove
street which it has been using for
some months has been rented and
the women have no place in view
to which to move. They must va-cate
the premises by Sept. 10.
Mrs. J. Harry Jenkins, Che presi-dent,
said today she was sure
someone had a store or an office
the use of which he would donate
to the association for the dura-ship
passing along the shore
would be visible to an enemy sub-marine.
The air raid wardens' '
centre is open every night, with
the senior wardens tuid their dep-uties
always on duty. . All warden;
call in when they go on duty, re-port
any incident that occurs and
also .let...headquarters know wheh
they go off duty. All reports are
turned over to Deputy Sector War-den
Samuel D. Uerbcr and each
incident is taken (fare of.
Preparing for Raids
But this Is on:y part of the air
raid warden's duty.- If there should
&e an air raid, then their work
would begin In earnest. They pre-pare
for such an emergency by
simulated cases carried through
when blackout tests are . given
such as that Monday night.
If an actual air raid warning
was sounded, it would be the duty
of _the_ wardens to report to the
'senior warden of each post to
enforce the blackout regulations "in
honiSST traffic lights, clear, streets
of pedestrians and ""warn all In
their homes or assist them to air
raid shelters where they exist.
The wardens also would give the
vail clear" signal following "a raid,
as soon as they were positive all
danger from gas or time bombs
was over. Next they would make
a survey of the raid damage and
report to the senior warden at
headquarters, give nrst aid as ne-cessary
t attend to the removal of
casualties to places of safety, see
that nres were gotten under con-
,_aod_ attend jo the .removal .of
damaged buildings, and the debris.
They also would attend to the
removal of the homeless to tem-porary
shelter and above all do
everything $n their power to main*
tain calmness and thus avoid pan-ics.
