Children Should Be T aught
Firearm Care And Safety
Christmas is the traditional time
many parents give their sons or
daughters their first firearm. And
with the gift of a firearm comes the
responsibility of making sure they
4 know how to take care of the gun
and use it safely and properly.
According to the N.C. Wildlife
Resources Commission, there are
several things a parent can and
should do to make sure the gift will
be a safe one.
"The first thing a parent should
do is make a wise selection. There
are many different types of action;
but for the first gun, the best is
probably a simple, single - shot
break action,' a Commission
spokesman said.
"This," he said, "will serve
several useful purposes. First it
makes the youngsters' job of
learning how to handle the firearm
easier. Automatic, slide or lever
action firearms make it easier for
the youngster to have a loaded gun
off safe.
"This is particularly noticeable
when the youngster is retrieving
game. With a single shot, he or she
can run after the downed game
without having to stop and think
about whether the gun is loaded,
especially if dad is along and
passing out the shells on a need
basis.
"In addition, a single shot will
soon teach the youngster to be
selective in his shots and he or she
will become a better shot. This cuts
down on the crippling of game." he
added.
Single - shot rifles or jshotguns
are also cheaper than other models
and that is good for dad's pocket
book. However, the gun should not
be the only cost.
"Besides purchasing the gun,
there are two other items that
should be purchased. One is a
cleaning kit and the other is a gun
case."
The child should be shown how
to properly clean the firearm and
should be instructed to clean the
gun after each use. This ensures the
gun will be kept in good, safe
working condition and the gun will
last longer.
"A gun case is very important. It
protects the firearm; and if the
youngster gets in the habit of
unloading the gun and putting it in
the case after returning to the car
or home, one of the first rules of
hunter safety will be met; unload
the gun when it is not being used,"
the spokesman said.
A hunter safety course is not a
legal requirement but, he added,
should be the first order of busi
ness. The Wildlife Commission
sponsors hunter safety courses
Deaths Predicted
On N. C, Highways
Approximately 38 may die in
traffic accidents in North Carolina
over the long Christmas and New
Year's holiday weekends, the N.C.
State Motor Club has estimated.
Last year 44 persons were killed
on Tar Heel highways during the
two holidays; 29 persons died
during the Christmas holiday and
15 during New Year's. The main
causes for these fatalities were
unsafe movement, speeding, and
following too closely.

This year the state will count its
toll from 6 p.m. Friday Dec. 23rd,
through midnight Monday, Dec.
26th, for Christmas, and from 6
p.m. Friday, Dec. 30th to midnight
Sunday, Jan. 1st, for New Year's.
"Our holidays would be far less
tragic if drivers would obey the 55 -
mph speed limit and practice safe
driving" said Peter Vasko, director
of Public Relations of the statewide
motor club. "We must slow down,
be more alert, and refrain from
drinking while driving."
Vasko warned that traffic would
be unusually heavy, as always,
during both holidays. "In addi
tion," he said, "the threat of
inclement winter weather adds to
traffic problems."
Vasko advised drivers to check
road conditions with the highway
patrol in case of snow or rain,
especially in the mountains.
Through Nov. the North Caro
lina death toll stands at 1,311
fatalities, some 52 less than a year
ago. This gives us encouragement
that drivers are becoming more
alert and safety minded.

The spokesman also cautioned
against giving heirlooms to your
child. He explained that many guns
owned by a grandfather or great -
grandfather and passed down to
succeeding generations might have
worn or broken parts. Some of the
older firearms also might not be
capable of withstanding chamber
pressures generated by the new
shells and powders.
He recommends taking the gun
to a qualified gunsmith prior to
passing it on to someone else.
If you are planning to give your
child a firearm for Christmas,
remember it is not a toy. Protect
your child and your family by
making sure they understand the
gun and firearm safety.

If you're not already under a corporate or
self-employed pension fund you can put up to 15
percent or a maximum of $1500 a year in Raeford
Savings & Loan's qualified IRA Plan. This would
allow you to defer (taxes) until retirement, which
is a real advantage, since most retired people are
under a much lower tax rate.
