Chief Shelly sta ted th a t in
the past month the re have been
two fires which could have
been much more serious, which
were sta rted by children playing
with matches. One was the
Miller fire and the other Was a
barn a t Kissel Hill. Prompt
action on the p a r t of the fire
department saved both pro
perties, which are estimated to
have a total value of $130,000,.
“but some other time we may
not be so lucky,” Chief Shelly
said.
He cautioned parents to fee
strict with the ir children about
playing with matches, and also
warned parents to put matches
away from children and n-ot
leave them lying around where
the youngsters can get a t them.
