Neilan I do not believe the democratic process in an election year is a series of speeches, threats, charges, and counterslur-ridde- n charges. I do not subscribe to innuendo, muck' raking, or political pettiness. With the challenges and causes demanded by todays society, every man, woman, and child must put aside personal determination and ambition if the greater goal is to be achieved. The key words are Unselfish Objectivity-keep- ing ones eye on the ball for the greater good of all who are concerned. Party Loyalty has its place but not at the price of national disorder. Our country needs outstanding leaders, citizens first, careerists by coincidence.

Fire exit plan's important for every family, house A mans castle could turn into a night- marish maze when fire strikes if there is no prearranged escape plan, says the Insurance Information Institute. percent of the 11,600 fire ' in the home, accordoccured 1974 deaths in released by the estimates to the latest ing National Fire Protection Association. And Fifty-seve- n most of these deaths occured between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. It is important to have a family escape plan to avoid panic and confusion in the event of a fire. Even a persons own home may appear foreign in an emergency situation at night if the usual exit is blocked, says the Institute. Fire Protection Week, proclaimed annually by the President of the United States, is being observed this week (Octo remind citizens of the evertober present danger of fire. This is a good reminder for families to avoid disaster by advance planning. The Insurance Information Institute offers these suggestions for a family escape plan: Decide on two ways to escape from each room through the doors and halls and through a window. When appropriate, sleep with bedroom doors closed. Fire safety experts point out that fire generally takes from 10 to 15 minutes to burn through a wooden door, thus delaying the spread erf fire. These valuable additional minutes might just be the time needed for escape from the home. Decide on an emergency signal that every member of the family can use to 3-- 9) arouse the others in the event of a fire. The predetermined signal can be as simple as yelling or pounding on the doors and walls. Test the doors before opening them. Hot smoke and possibly poisonous fumes could be lurking behind the door. If a door is hot, do not open it. Instead, use the emergency exit. Keep down close to the floor if the room is filled with smoke. Cover your mouth and nose with a damp cloth, if possible. Never assume that clear air in a fire situation is safe. It could contain carbon monoxide which affects judgment, thus hindering escape. Roll over on the ground or floor if your clothing ignites. Running will only help to fan the flames. Exit the building quickly. Do not stop to a gather belongings, and never burning building. Gather at a predetermined meeting place well away from the house. Make sure everyone is safe, and notify the fire dere-ent- er partment. Practice your family escape plan so that it becomes automatic. Do not overlook nighttime fire drills. For extra protection, early warning smoke or heat detection systems which automatically sound an alarm are available to alert a family to the presence of a fire in the home. Thus alerted, the family escape plan can be implemented. The combination erf an early warning alarm and an escape plan should help you sleep easier and may help to save your life. I |
