PAGE 6 December 2, 1988 Warm Springs, Oregon Spilyay Tymoo Keep roads clear for fire equipment Two local churches vandalized Is your road access adequate for fire-fighting equipment? One item that is often overlooked whenplanningand buildingahome in a forested subdivision is the road leading to it. Oftentimes, cither because of costs or the need to pre serve a sense of seclusion, roads are improperly designed with poor construction standards. This could be disastrous in the event of a major wildfire. Roads that are too narrow, too steep, or improperly mark ed, can prevent fire trucks and per sonnel from getting to your home and property in the event of a fire. More importantly, good road access can provide a fast and safe means of escape for you and your family. If you are planning to build in a forested subdivision or have already constructed your home, here are some tips to consider to improve access to your property: 1. Make sure there are at least two ways to get to and from your home. This provides an escape route for you and others when and if the area needs to be evacuated. A U shaped driveway into your homes ite is helpful because it provides additional access for fire-fighting equipment. tional access for fire-fighting equip ment. 2. Roads in and out of the area should be designed wide enough to allow two-way traffic, parking lanes, and roadside strips. Cul-de-sacs should have a turning radius large enough to allow fire trucks to turn around, rather than having to back up. Roads should also be designed to maintain a road gradient of less than 12 percent, even for short pitches. Side-slopes or out-slopes should be kept to five percent or less. 3. To insure that fire fighters can find your home in case of a fire, make sure the road leading to your property is clearly marked with your lot number and address. Although designing roads to the standards discussed in this article adds to the expense of living in the forest, it buys you some protection for your home and property in the event of a major fire.

Warm Springs police were called to investigate a vandalism at the Warm Springs Shaker Church and the Catholic Mission, Blessed Kateri Tckakwitha in Warm Springs, late in the afternoon of November 29, 1988. Unidentified individuals had broken into both churches. The spree of vandalism apparently oc curred earlior in the day. It is estimated by a member of the Shaker Church that the dam age to the building, cleaning costs and loss of foodstuff would cost SI, 000. Items from the Catholic Church were found at the Shaker Church. Foodstuff were scattered and mixed and thrown on the floors, tables and walls of the church. The dining hall floor was covered with catsup, mustard, flour, kool-aid and macaroni. On the din ing room tables, satanic writing and signs were found. At the Catholic church a win dow was broken, foodstuff were smeared on the pews and floor. Vestments used in Mass were taken and found later at the Shaker Church. The Catholic Church was cordoned off by police at the entrance of the church. Catholic Father Leo Weckerlee could only give an estimate of damages. He figured the cost to be about S 1 ,000 to $1,200." A Pendleton blanket used as an altar cloth was also taken. The investigating officer was not available for an interview, so it is not known if there are any suspects. Officials from the Shaker Church asked that anyone who may have any information about the acts of vandalism contact the church or the police department. v i ) , 1 " " - -s if r h it i -""""7"' ..-nC ' X X .

Keep latchkey kids safe Self-care or brothers and sis ters taking care of each other is the most common after-school arrangement for children today. If your children stay at home without adult supervision, don't assume that they will handle all situations in a safe manner when they are home alone.

Many gave out their addresses. When asked what they would do in case of a fire, some said they would try to put the fire out. To help keep your children safe when you can't be there, teach them some basic rules of safety. Explain thoroughly what they should do if a fire starts in the house, and practice a fire drill. Teach them how to phone for fire or police. Discuss the proper response to phone calls and home visits from strangers and act out the stranger calling so your child can practice the correct re sponse. Be sure your child knows where to go to be safe during stormy weather. Keep emergency phone numbers handy. Teach first aid for bad cuts and burns.
