DANGEROUS
COMBINATIONS
It is often said in these days of
many automobiles, speed maniacs
and careless drivers, that whis
key and gasoline make a danger
ous combination and the asser
tion is no doubt correct. Many
people are killed, crippled or al
most scared to death with con
siderable frequency by this mix
ture and much property is de
stroyed or jeapordized.
There is another combination,
however, which, judging from
recent happenings, is of realiy
more concern to Heppner people
and that is small children and
matches. Last Monday two
small tots in quest of amusement
and excitement started a nice lit
tle fire in an open shed at the
rear of the Herald office and on
ly for timely discovery of the
incipient blaze by the foreman of
the office whose attention was
attracted by the smoke which
penetrated the building, the en
tire block and perhaps a good
portitn of the town might have
been in ashes. Only a few weeks
ago a similar (ire was started, it
is said by the same children, in
a shed in Stewart's feed corral
back of the Gazette-Times oflice.
Timely discovery in that case al
so saved the town from a disas
trous conflagration, These chil
dren are too young to realize the
disastrous conseiiuen c e s that
might result from their acts but
perhaps a judicious amount of
paddling administered while the
youngsters recline across the pa
rental knee, may make them re
alize that further acuities along
the fire-starting line will result
further unpleasant experiences
for themselves.
A safe rule for parents of
children old enough to play with
matches and young enough not to
realize the danger to themselves
and the community is to make an
invariable practice of keeping
matches in some safe place where
the children can by no possibility
ream them. It will be safer lor
the children, safer for the prop
erty interests of the town wliili
adding .infinitely to the peace of
mum of the neighborhood.
