"Cold" Ashes Often The Cause of Fire (Continued From Page One) many fires but that Is not the major cause. Most of the existing fire haz ards in La Grande occur in wiring, Mr. Lindsay pointed out emphatical ly that modem Jobs of wiring, done by men who know their business and then properly inspected, present practically no hazard if the house holder leaves them alone! That's one of the big troubles, he pays. For Instance, a fuse burns out. There are no extras. So John Citizen puts a penny in the branch, circuit and thereby invites a call from the fire department. When he puts a penny in the branch circuit he simply takes away protection in case of an overload of electricity. Without the proper fuse, if his wires are over charged, it usually means a fire, "Yet, many men, who wouldn't think of driving a car without brakes," Mr. Lindsay said, "will go away at night and leave their families asleep In a house with no protection from fire all because of a penny in the branch circuit!"

GHAPPED SMM SK.il To relievo the sorcnesB and Jryncss and hasten tlie return of skin comfort ana health, apply soothing another Ilro iiazard quite common, and every now and then some one tinkers with the wiring system, and theroby creates a hazard through adding to or altering the systom: without proper knowledge of how it , should be done. Still another thing : that pcrmito fire, once started, to spread rapidly, is the presenco of extra rooms in basements not equipped . with doors. Often fires are kept in one room be- cause a door is closed, yet were the ; door open, the flames would sproad rapidly and often devastatlngly. Mr. Lindsay urged all people to In- i apect their basements, and if any j fire hazard such as trash, old cloth ing, etc. Is In a dangerous location! in proximity to the f urnacc . may bo removed. Oily rage are. a constant , danger when allowed to remain neor a furnace or stove. There are many other hazards, also, but those men tioned above ore some of the most common. . . Mr. Lindsay pointed out that- the city Is willing to inspect free 'Of charge places where fire hazards are suspected; glad to do it, in fact, in the hope of reducing future fire losses through toking of proper pre-, cautions to prevent blazes.
