Home Safety To Be
Stressed at La Grande
Workshop in March
Deaths and injuries from home
accidents are one of the greatest
problems in Oregon, according to
the Governor's committee on
home safety. Home accidents
are second only to motor vehicle
accidents in the number of deaths
from accident each year, and they
are the leading cause of injuries.
The committee has found dur
ing its six years' existence that
when people are aware of the
problem, they will make a great
effort to do something about it.
One method used by the commit
tee to get information to the peo
pie of Oregon is through safety
workshops in various regions
throughout the state.
A home safety workshop is be
ing planned for March 21 and
22, to be held at Eastern Oregon
College of Education in La
Grande. The workshop will be
open to anyone from Baker, Wal
lowa, Union, Umatilla and Mor
row counties interested in plan
ning a home accident preven
tion program for their family,
club or community.
The planning committee with
representatives from the five
counties has developed a full
schedule for the two day work
shop include small working
groups and practical ideas such
as movies, skits, flannelboard
demonstrations and records.
Anyone Interested in attending
the workshop may get further
information from Mrs. Velma
Glass, Morrow county health de
partment, Heppner.
