Modern home builders are using them in those one-step-down liv ing rooms to remind guests of the step, and in outdoor terraces _ and pourches where there is no overhead light. They could also be used at the top and bottom of attic and basement stairs. 4 THURSDAY, MAY 29, 1947 THE EAGLE, VERNONIA, ORE. At the Churches Be Somebody LEAP OFF—Throw yourself out into space.

AUDITORIUM PROPOSAL FAILS IN VOTE SEASIDE—Seaside voters re- fused to approve the issue of bonds totaling $80,000 for the construc tion of a municipal auditorium at a special election held Tuesday.

FIRE RAZES THIRD MILL AT MANNING MANNING—Only smouldering ruins are left this week of the third sawmill in this area to be de stroyed by fire in less chan a year. Loss was placed at $15,000. The Edwards Lumbei Company plant was leveled by flames which swept the structure late Saturday, May 17. Cause of the fire was undetermined. Workmen from the plant and a crew with equipment from i the Forest Grove fire department bat- tied the flames through the late afternoon and evening, but were unable to bring the blaze under control. NEW STEP LIGHT FOR HOME SAFETY It’s dark at the top of the base ment stairs, and Mother doesn’t see that Fluffy has left a choice bone there for her tej trip over.—. There’s no outside light on the Brown’s garage, and the prowler who waited there to lift Mr. Brown’s wallet after he had put the car away on a dark night, knew it—. If Sue had taken the time to draw a floor lamp up beside the sewing machine for that few min utes of evening sewing, her finger and the needle wouldn’t have tangled like they did—. Because so many of these home accidents, which happen every day, could be avoided by having proper light at the right spot, lighting specialists have listed a number of simple rules for safety lighting in the home. 1. Provide a light at all out door entrances to the home. And if the front porch is a wide one, it needs a light over the steps as well as one at the door. 2. Have some sort of outdoor lighting, preferably controlled from the house as well as the garage. If your garage is not wired, locate a projecter flood light on the corner of the house at second-story height so that it illuminates both driveway and garage entrance?. 3. Light is needed at the top and bottom of all stairways to lessen the possibility of falls. The important thing is to have the entire stairway illuminated. 4. Any motor-driven equipment such as sewing machine, washing machine, or work bench ma chines need light directed on it, when in use, to avoid nicked or mashed fingers. 5. A tiny night light whose operating cost for a whole year a matter of pennies, should be left burning all night in bathrooms halls or stairways, especially if there are invalids, small children or aged persons in the family. Along the lines of safety light ing, have you seen the new step light, which can be fitted into the riser or any stairstep?
