Fire Chief Issues List of Do's and
Don'ts To Eliminate Fire Hazards
by systematic inspection.
Loss of property because of fire
was nearly $400 less during the
past year than the previous year,
according to Lawrence L. Kerley,
chief of the local fire department
The fire department has two
trucks, one purchased by Hazel
wood, and operated by the Waynes
ville department under a special
agreement between the two com
munities, and all other fire fight
ing equipment considered neces
sary for a community of this size.
The town co-operates with prop
erty owners in hauling off trash,
garbage and other fire hazards on
a regular schedule of trucks. Close
inspection is made of all the pri
vate and public buildings in this
area.
In accounting for the improve
ment along these lines Mr. Kerley
stated that people generally speak
ing are taking more precautions
about their property, and are more
careful than they have ever been
in keeping their premises clear of
rubbish.
From October 1, 1940 to October
1, 1941 the local city fire depart
ment received 45 calls, 34 of which
were from the town of Waynes
ville. Eleven of these, including
8 from Hazelwood, were from out
side the city limit.
The cost Of operating the trucks,
counting wear, upkeep of the
equipment.and gas amounted to
$1,756 during the past year. The
total cost for firemen amounted to
$308 for inside fires and $143 for
fires outside the city limits. This
does not include the salary paid the
fire chief. . "' -,'
KThe damage to property in the
city limits last year totaled $1,880,
accqrdingt0 Chief Kerley. . .
Personnel of the fire department
is as follows: Lawrence L.' Kerley,
chief, Robert Hugh Clark, assist
and chief ; firemen, Bradford Me
haffey, Walter Mehaffey, John
Boyd, James Boyd, John West, Paul
Yount, Paul Walker, Bill Cole,
Will Strange, Harold Massie, Clem
Fitzgerald, Hub Burnette, David
Underwood, John Ray, Ben Colkitt,
and Sam Cabe.
There is an average of 12 fire
men at each fire which under ordi
nary conditions is a sufficient
number. The local department is
high in praise of the co-operation
of the local telephone company
in cases of fire alarms.

Co-operating with the Fire Pre
vention Committee of the Cham
ber of Commerce in promoting its
Fire Prevention Week campaign,
Chief Lawrence Kerley of the Fire
Department has issued two lists of
suggestions to prevent fires.
The first list, which follows, are
the things he sugggests:
Keep waste paper, packing ma
terial and rubbish cleaned up, and
remove from building at least daily.
Make frequent inspections from
a fire standpoint.
Instruct and drill employees on
what to do in case of fire.
Be careful about the use of
matches.
Put up "No Smoking" signs, es
pecially in hazardous sections.
Locate your nearest fire alarm
box and learn how to turn in an
alarm. .
v See that your electric wiring is
standard and be careful in the use
Of electrical devices.
Have all smoke pipes and chim
neys inspected and repaired by a
competent person before starting
fires for the winter.
Keep gasoline in safety cans and
in a safe place.
Keep water barrels and pails
filled and extinguishers charged.
Use only safe floor oils, and
sweeping compounds,
Feel your personal responsibili
ty for possible loss of life and
property by fire and act accord
ingly. The second list, which follows, are
the things he suggests not to do:
Don't put ashes in other than
metal receptacles, and don't dump
them where, they will come in con
tact with combustible materials.
Don't hang electric light cords
on nails.
, Don't use wooden lockers. :
Don't permit oily rags to lie
around.
Don't let the fact that you are
insured make you careless.
Don't use an open light when
looking for escaping gas or in the
presence of inflammable liquids.
Don't Use swdust in spittoons
or to absorb oils.
Don't throw away lighted match
es, cigars or cigarettes.
Don't use insecticides or liquid
polishes in the vicinity of open
flame lights. Many such com
pounds contain coltatile inflam
mable oils.
Don't use kerosene, benzine or
naphtha in lighting fires, or to
quicken a slow fire it may result
in death.

"Blossom Time"
Will Be Given In
Asheville 18th
"Blossom Time," America's fav
orite operetta, based upon the im
mortal melodies of Frani Schubert,
and produced by the Messrs.
Shubert, comes to the Auditorium,
Asheville, one performance only
Saturday, Oct. 18, with Everett
Marshall singing the role of the
famous composer. It is 20 years
since "Blossom Time" had its first
performance on Broadway, and
during the intervening years, the
operetta has enjoyed a success un
paralleled in the annals of the
American stage. The charm and
simplicity of the love story, the
sheer verve of its music, the gay
humor and the bitter-sweet poig
nancy of a life devoted to a single
end, assured it of overwhelming
popular approval from the very be
ginning.
So great was the demand to see
it in the early days that a second
Company was installed on Broad
way. Never before or since has
New York been treated to the
spectacle of the same musical pro
duction playing in theaters facing
each other on the same street, . V
The original presentation of
"Blossom Time" remained on
Broadway for almost two years,
while eight or nine road companies
were touring the key cities. Since
then, the operetta has returned to
New York at least seven times for
additional long runs, and repeat
performances have been offered in
every city where a theater was
available. Its audience seems as
inexhaustible as its appeal.
The curtain goes up on this per
formance at 8:30 p. m. sharp.
Mail orders for tickets now being
received. See ad elsewhere in this
