This Is Fire Prevention Week Officially kicking off the cam- paign for Fire Prevention Week, Kings Mountain Fire Department will hold an open house Sunday from 1 until 5 p.m. The public is invited to receive helpful literature and to view equipment and see fire education films. Children will enjoy the fire trucks on display. Kings Mountain Fire Department, along with all fire de- partments in Cleveland County, is celebrating Fire Prevention Week Oct. 9-13. During this time, fire- men will be visiting schools and various organizations displaying equipment, showing fire education films and answering questions from individuals and passing out helpful literature. "This is also a good time of year to remember to check your smoke detectors and for those who don't have a smoke detector to install one," says Fire Chief Frank Burns. Detectors are priced in about any price range, so that anyone can af- ford it. Anyone wishing more in- formation can call 734-0556. Chief Burns reminds home own- ers to check chimneys since the high winds and storm damage could easily have cracked mortar joints or other structural damage leaving open area for flames to es- cape. This year's Fire Prevention Week theme: "Big fires start small: keep matches and lighters in the right hands" reflects the importance of fire safety education for young children. "Fireplay is the leading cause of fire deaths among preschoolers. It kills three of every 10 who die in residential structure fires in the U. S., according to Insurance Commissioner and State Fire Marshal Jim Long. "Matches and lighters are what children most fre- quently use when playing with fire. Last year, 6,215 people died in fires in the United States and near- ly 80% of those deaths occurred in home fires. "If we're going to see a reduction in the devastating loss of life and property from fire in this genera- tion, we're all going to have to work together to make our commu- nities firesafe," said Long. PRACTICE FIRE-The abandoned house, above, was set on fire during a practice exercise by firemen. Firemen are trained to re- spond to "the real thing" and this week during Fire Prevention Week local firemen will be showing educational films, distributing informational materials and holding open house on Sunday.
