PREVENTION
. OF FIRE IS
NOW NEEDED
Observance of Fire Freven
tion Week is Being
Made
Observance of Fire Prevention
Week is being made generally in
all sections of the United States
— special proclamations issued by
governors-wepeelal,observance be­
ing made .by service clubs and by
schools— a concerted effort to
bring, about a deeper realization
of the importance of fire pre­
vention — the task of stopping
flr^s before they start.
October 9 was the anniversary
of the grept Chicago fire which
occurred in 1871 and brought
great disaster— loss of life and
homes and other prized posses­
sions to thousands of persons.
In schools all over the country
need of fire prevention, rather
than fire fighting is being taught
— a campaign of education which
• brings to children the lesson of
the great value of preventing
fires.
,
Special speakers and teachers
concentrate in driving home early
the lesson of the great ' ( dangers
and great and irreparable losses
whloh fire brings.
Fire Prevention is a topic in
which everyone is equally inter­
ested— for fire is no respecter of
property or persons.
During 1 »*8 s o m e 10,000
persons lost their lives in fires
and double that number were in­
jured.
Prominent among the many
reasons for preventing fires is thq
necessity of conserving our na­
tural resources. The cost of
building material — especially
that of lumber— is constantly ad­
vancing. One important reason
for this ie that enormous num-
, bers of standing trees are destroy­
ed by fire «very year.
Nature
cannot produce trees suitable for
building material so fast as fire
can burn them. Burning is the
matter of minutes, or hours, while
building is the matter of years.
Introduction of efficient fire
departments, elaborate water sys­
tems and various other means for
extinguishing fire have b e e n
made. Now the campaign is di­
rected toward methods of reduc­
ing our fires.
It would seem that more at­
tention has been paid to provide
effective means of extinguishing'
fires rathef than paying attention
to the prevention of them.
To reduce fire losses— to pro­
tect, loved ones, homes, business
and public, carlessness mast be
avoided. ‘
One reason for observing Fire
Prevention week* is to create a
spirit of competition between
communities in fire prevention
work.
Ashland Is particularly proud
of the small losses which have re­
sulted from fires in thia city In
the last year and- the constant
Inspection of fire '’hazards— va­
cant lots in the summer t i m e

ed materially in reducing fire
losses.
