SPRINGFIELD forest Fire
Kindly Jinx
Aids Firemen
SPRINGFIELD The city fire'
department has a benevolent jinx,
Fire Chief Harry Melson reported
Wednesday.
It seems, Melson said, that every
time this city has a fire of possible
major proportion it comes on the
same night the department is hav
ing fire drill and there is a com
plete crew on hand.
Tuesday night they had drill
and two fires.
A shorted electric motor at
Madgen Feed and Seed Store in
Glenwood burned a hole in the
roof and destroyed the motor, used
in the elevator system. John
Madgen, owner, estimates dam
age at about $500. He credits the
promptness of the department
with saving his building and the
$15,000 supply of grain stored
there.
Almost before returning fire
men got cleaned up, a flue fire
was spotted at the Arcade Build
ing, Fifth and Main Streets. An
oil burner there had exploded,
filling second-floor apartments
with smoke and igniting soot in
the chimney. Except for the smoke
damage was negligible.
A few weeks ago the fire crew
was on hand after drill to (ignt
the burning warehouse used by
Wright's Hardware at Sixth and
Main. This fire threatened the
downtown business district and
damaged $1500 worth of supplies
stored in the warehouse.
E. W. Gossler
E. W. Gossler, a Lane County
resident for 55 years, died Tues
day in Pendleton, his home of the
past four months.
He was born Aug. 27, 1871, in
Cherokee County, Iowa, and was
married to Katherine Brown in
Springfield in 1898.
Surviving are a daughter, Zelma
Hanna, Stanfield, Ore.; two sons,
Kenneth E., of Eugene, and Loy
M., of Stanfield; seven grandchil
dren, Glen and Clair, sons of Ken
neth E., Betty, Delores and Mar
garet, daughters of Loy M., Patty
and Keith, son and daughter of
Zelma; two sisters, Mrs. B. F.
Goodpasture of Vida, and Mrs.
Margaret Day, Seattle. .
Funeral services will be held at
the Bartholomew-Buell Mortuary
in Springfield Saturday at 2 p.m.,
with the Rev. Ellsworth Tilton of
ficiating. Interment will be In
Laurel Hill Cemetery.
Record Good
Oregon has an excellent oppor
tunity to make a top flight record
in forest fire prevention this sum
mer, it was declared here Tues
day by Charles Ogle of Salem,
executive secretary of Keep Or3
gon Green. Pointing to the fact
that so far this summer there have
been few serious fires in the state,
Ogle said this fact should encour
age the general public and the in
dustry to be even more alert to
keep the record clear for the rest
of the season.
"The most dangerous weeks are
uhead," he pointed out, "but we
have done so well so far that we
now have a chance to make this
one of the best seasons in years
from the standpoint of low fire
loss."
The Keep Oregon Green or
ganization has used education as
a means of curbing fires and has
enlisted support of school children
throughout the state in effective
work.
In the decade from 1930 to 1940,
before Keep Oregon Green was
organized, Ogle recalled, there
were 1300 forest fires annually in
the state. Since organization of
Keep Oregon Green in 1940, the
number has been reduced to 400
fi'es a year, he said, and the
acreage involved has been cut
down sharply.
