neighborhood children who was

Details of the accident on Friday,
June 15, when Clifford Olson was
killed near Telocaset show the
manner of his death. It was the
general belief from first reports
that he had run head-on into a
freight train while on the speeder,
but this was erroneous. It seems
that according to the signals, Clif
ford would have had sufficient time
to get his speeder off the track but
the train, a freight of empty re
frigerator cars was coming down
hill at great speed and Clifford had
the speeder off the track except the
small wheel which he was trying
to release when he was struck and
instantly killed. His death cast a
shadow of sorrow over the entire
community.
At the last meeting of the county
court it was decided to move W.

HUMPHREYS' PATTERSON'S
The Fourth of July
Celebration or Calamity
(From State Board of Health.)
"The parents of three small chil
dren killed by fireworks last year
recently appeared before the Roch
ester, New York, Common Council
and urged the adoption of an ordin
ance to prohibit the sale and dis
charge of fireworks within the city
with the exception of the display of
set pieces at community celebra
tions." The ordinance requested by
these bereaved parents was passed
by the council too late so far as
they were concerned but their ac
tion may be the means of saving
other children.
"Since it is probable that the
authorities of most communities in
Oregon will still allow the sale and
use of dangerous fireworks on Inde
pendence Day in some cities have
even allowed it for days in advance
in defiance of present laws it be
comes the duty of the State Depart
ment of Health to point out to par
ents some of the more important
causes of Fourth of July accidents
and means by which they can safe
guard their youngsters.
"The type of firework which is set
off by grinding under the heel or
by pounding and which is known
by various fanciful names contains
phosphorous, a deadly poison. It
is not a rare thing for a young
child, mistaking this material for
candy, to put some of it in his
mouth, usually with a fatal result.
Or children may become poisoned
by handling the material and subse
quently putting their fingers in their
mouths. If an accident of this kind
happens, give the victim liquid pet
rolatum or mineral oil and call a
doctor immediately.
"Severe burns are always danger
ous. On the Fourth don't dress
your children in fluffy material
which will easily catch fire. Even
sparklers, which ordinarily are
harmless, have been reported as set-
ling nre to light muslin dresses.
"Tetanus or lockjaw is perhaps
the danger most to be feared as a
result of Fourth of July accidents.
The lockjaw germ will only grow
in the absence of oxygen. Its hab
itat is the soil, particularly manured
earth. Deep wounds in the soft
flesh, such as are caused by blank
cartridge wads, are particularly
dangerous as the wad usually car
ries surface dirt to the deeper tis
sues which gives this germ the best
possible condition for growth and
the development of its poisons. In
such cases call your doctor at once
and let him give tetanus antitoxin.
If given early enough this will pre
vent lockjaw; if given after symp
toms develop its action is far less
positive. Lockjaw once fully devel
oped is commonly fatal.
"Have we overestimated Fourth
of July dangers? Last year after
the holiday, editorial comment was
practically unanimous for regulated
celebrations. But memories are
short, a year is a long time, and it
is again up to the parents to protect
their own children.
"And just a word to the adults.
According to the State Traffic bu
reau automobile fatalities are trip
led on the Fourth of July. Play
safe!"
