It's the m st gniescme highway
in the world.
It’s 3,(XX) miles long Yew’ll find
it here. In the country. In the city
It cuts a broad swath across the
heart of America.
It represents the extent of man's
carelessness. For the highway is
bordered on one side by homes
And each house has been struck
by fire.
Stretched out for 10 miles at
the beginning are the dead lying
head to foot. Three hundred
thousand homes damaged or des.
troyed! Eleven thousand three
hundred dead in all fires!
Since time began? No. It was
last year. Will it be the same this
year?
Next week, October 9 to 15 is
national fire prevention week
Have you checked yoir farm or
home recently for fire hazards?
Farm fires in 1JS9 took, 1,000 lives
and destroyed $174,000,000 in rural
oroperty.
How about it? Won't you check
those fire hazards in your home
today?
