Elsewhere in the paper you have read of the home in Midland being destroyed by fire. It is somewhat ironical that this happened just before Octover 5-11, the period set aside as fire prevention week. The home was a total loss as far as any m;aterial goods were concerned. Let's hope it is not a total loss in setting an example to others to take all precautions in preventing fires. Check all your chimneys and flues no.w, that they won't be a source of fires in the fall weather ahead. Keep your matches where small children can't reach them. A little time and trouble now -to take fire prevention measures may save you twenty times as much in property later.
