The sage fire south of Hermiston Wednesday noon was another fine example of someone’s care less handling of a very destructive weapon — fire. , Why it is that motorists traveling along the many miles of tinder dry sage and brush land insist on dropping lighted matches, cigarettes and cigars from cars is beyond our knowledge. Just one ounce of mental effort will convince an average mind of the dangers involved. A law which has been effect in Oregon for many years reads: “It shall be unlawful for any one to throw away any lighted tobacco, cigars, cigarettes, matches, firecrackers or any lighted material, on any forest land, private road, public highway or rail road right of way within this state. * * * Any one violating the provisions of this section shall be deem ed guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction thereof, shall be punished by a fine of not more than $75.” f However, it is not a fear of this law which should prompt an individual to be sure of putting out that lighted object before tossing it out of the car. Com mon sense tells us that one such foolish act can do thousands of dollars worth of damage. Let’s think twice.
