Hunters .who kill doe deer on any of the 19 either-sex deer hunt areas must carry their deer to one of the listed check stations so that it may be tagged by Wildlife Commission personnel.

Doe deer which are killed on the Butner Game Lands In Durham and Granville counties' or the Dismal Swamp Game Lands only in Perquimans County must also be tagged-in the field by the hunter using the deer tag supplied with the 16 Game Lands Use Permit vrhlch is' required to hunt these two areas.

Last year alone, ap proximately 2,475,000 fires claimed 12,200 lives and cost the nation $2.8 billion in property destroyed or damaged. Underlying these figures from the National Fire Protection Association, Fire Chief F.B. Nixon points out, is the tragic fact that much of this waste of lives and property is avoidable. If the basic rules of fire safety were observed at home and on the job, the record could be far different. Fire Prevention Week, which in 1971 will take place from October 3-9, serves to re- emphasize the truth that FIRE HURTS-that fighting fires is the job of each citizen, not only during Fire Prevention Week but throughout the entire year. Local observances of Fire Prevention Week will be sponsored by the Hertford Fire Department, Chief Nixon an nounces. Proclaimed by the President of the United States and the Governor-General of Canada, the week is in ternationally sponsored by the rNational Fire Protection Association. Features of the week-long program will include a parade Saturday Oct. 2 starting at 2 p.m. sponsored by the Albemarle Flremita Association.
