N.C. Hunters
Cautioned
On The Use
Of Firearms
The opening of the hunting sea
son in North Carolina has drawn
a sharp reminder from safety
specialists of the N. C. State Board
of Healih to guard against acci
dental deaths and injuries from
firearms.
Dr. Charles Cameron, Jr., ac
cident epidemiologist of the Board
if Health, cited the 50 deaths from
firearms in 1955 and the 83 deaths
in 1954 as a grim warning of the j
dangers associated with thd hand- |
ling and use of firearms.
"Throughout the United States
in 1955 over 2.150 persons lost
their lives from the careless hand
ling of pistols, rifles, and shot
guns," Dr. Cameron said. "Over
half of these accidents occur in
the home and can be traced to
improper storage of weapons."
The physician placed particular j
emphasis on the tragically high toll
of firearm accidents among chil
dren, adding that over 25 per cent
i of Victims of these accidents are
under 15 years of age.
"Guns have great attraction to
children, particularly boys," Dr.
Cameron said. "Parents sometimes
forget that the child cannot differ
between a toy gun and the real
thing."
The Board of Health passes on j
these 10 commandments of gun
safety:
1. Treat every gun with the re
spect of a loaded gun.
2. Always unload a weapon be
fore putting it away and then store
it in a place inaccessable to chil
dren.
3. Always carry a gun so that
the direction of the muzzle can
lie controlled even if the hunter
should stumble.
5. Be sure of the target before
pulling the trigger.
6. Never leave a gun unattended |
unless you unload it first.
7. Never climb a fence or tree
with a loaded gun.
8. Never shoot at a flat, hard
j surface or the surface of water.
' 9. Never point a gun at any
thing you don't want to shoot.
10. Gunpowder and alcohol make
,i lethal mixture.
Adherence of these rules, agreed
to by sportsmen's groups through
out the country, may prevent need
less deaths and injuries which
! could turn your hunting party into
a funeral party, Dr. Cameron con
cluded.
