While Fire Prevention Week is right around the corner, its

pretty much a year-round job for our local volunteer fire
firefighters. This photo, featuring the White Indian (a.k.a.

Randy Isakson), was taken on April 19th as the City and

Valley County Long Run crews were testing fire hoses.
More details on that to come in Wednesdays Buzz.

Fire Prevention Week October 9-15

Every smoke alarm has an
expiration date. Whats yours? In
conjunction with the upcoming
Fire Prevention Week, Glasgow
Volunteer and Long Run Volunteer
Fire Departments urge all Valley
County residents to know how
old their smoke alarms are, and to

replace them every 10 years.

Fire Prevention Week was
established to commemorate the
Great Chicago Fire, the notorious
blaze that killed more than 250
people, left 100,000 homeless,
destroyed more than 17,400
structures, and burned more than

2,000 acres on October 8th and 9th,

1871.
According to popular legend,
the fire broke out after a cow
belonging to Mrs. Catherine OLeary
kicked over a lamp, setting first
the barn, then the whole city on fire.

Pancake breakfast a big hit

There is no problem for me deciding on who to vote

for the next president of the United States. With Hillary we
get more years of THE SAME.... liberal ruin and apologies
for being American.
I will give Trump a chance and if in doubt about
that my sister in Kalispell said she will vote for the vice
president. Pence is a good man. Trump is a breat of fresh
air after what we have seen and heard of our politicians.

I believe he will put America first and do what is best
for the people. Instead of using Americas $$ to rebuild wartorn countries, he says he will rebuild U.S. infrastructure
roads, bridges, the train system... all in need of great
repair.

Trump is a business man and will know how to run the
BIG BUSINESS of the USA. He admits he doesnt know it
all but will surround himself with people who do. He is
willing to learn and be advised. Hillary has accomplished
little as Sec. of State and has proven over the years to be a
liar and a cheat. The only good thing that might come of
her winning... maybe they will bring back the things they
stole from the White House when they left the last time.

I know we cant go on like we have been. I dont know
if anyone can fix us... we need the Lords help! We need to
pray for whoever gets in! We went to see Hillarys America
and have read all the new books about her and Trump that
sealed my decision. Such as:
Ann Coulters In Trump We Trust
Former Secret Service officer Gary Byrne, author of
the new book Crisis of Character, worked at the White
House during the Clinton era and wrote about the Real
Clintons and his absolute reluctance to trust her in the
White House again to protect his children.
The Bible says God gives the people the leader they
deserve.
Lets be worthy of decensy, integrity and morality...
qualities on which this country was founded and blessed.

Trump is our only choice.
~ Connie Johnson (Red Convertible Connie)

The Fort Peck Senior Citizens Pancake Breakfast

held in Kiwanis Park this last Saturday was deemed to
have been a huge success!! It was a rainy, wet morning
but people were out to watch the Glasgow Invitational
Cross Country meet and many of them found their way to
Shelter House #4 to eat or to purchase a warm beverage.
Eighty one breakfasts were served, in addition to many
additional cups of hot coffee and hot chocolate.
Several Fort Peck Senior Citizens were on hand as
early as 7:00 a.m. to get everything set up and to keep things
moving smoothly throughout the morning. Pancakes and
sausage were cooked on a propane grill by two tried-and
true-members. Others were kept busy mixing the batter,
serving the drinks, taking care of the till, and being the
go-tos for anything else that needed to be done.
A huge thanks goes out to everyone who ate and/
or made donations, to all those who worked, and to our
advertisers! More than $600.00 was raised toward the
Seniors current project of providing at least two welcome
signs for the Town of Fort Peck. They hope to make this
an annual event, so work up an appetite for next year!!

Fire Prevention Week

continued from front

Chances are youve heard some version of this story
yourself; people have been blaming the Great Chicago
Fire on the cow and Mrs. OLeary, for more than 130
years. But recent research by Chicago historian Robert
Cromie has helped to debunk this version of events.
The Moo myth Like any good story, the case
of the cow has some truth to it. The great fire almost
certainly started near the barn where Mrs. OLeary kept
her five milking cows. But there is no proof that OLeary
was in the barn when the fire broke out - or that a jumpy
cow sparked the blaze. Mrs. OLeary herself swore that
shed been in bed early that night, and that the cows
were also tucked in for the evening.
But if a cow wasnt to blame for the huge fire,
what was? Over the years,
journalists and historians
have offered plenty of theories.
Some blamed the blaze on
a couple of neighborhood
boys who were near the barn
sneaking cigarettes. Others
believed that a neighbor
of the OLearys may have
started the fire. Some people
have speculated that a fiery
meteorite may have fallen to
earth on October 8, starting several fires that day - in
Michigan and Wisconsin, as well as in Chicago.
While the Great Chicago Fire was the best-known
blaze to start during this fiery two-day stretch, it wasnt
the biggest. That distinction goes to the Peshtigo Fire,
the most devastating forest fire in American history.
The fire, which also occurred on October 8th, 1871, and
roared through Northeast Wisconsin, burning down 16
towns, killing 1,152 people, and scorching 1.2 million
acres before it ended.
Historical accounts of the fire say that the blaze
began when several railroad workers clearing land for
tracks unintentionally started a brush fire. Before long,
the fast-moving flames were whipping through the area
like a tornado, some survivors said. It was the small
town of Peshtigo, Wisconsin that suffered the worst
damage. Within an hour, the entire town had been
destroyed.
Those who survived the Chicago and Peshtigo fires
never forgot what theyd been through; both blazes
produced countless tales of bravery and heroism.

Fire Prevention Week continued from

But the fires also changed the way that firefighters

and public officials thought about fire safety. On the
40th anniversary of the Great Chicago Fire, the Fire
Marshals Association of North America (today known
as the International Fire Marshals Association), decided
that the anniversary of the Great Chicago Fire should
henceforth be observed not with festivities, but in a
way that would keep the public informed about the
importance of fire prevention. The commemoration
grew incrementally official over the years.
In 1920, President Woodrow Wilson issued the first
National Fire Prevention Day proclamation, and since
1922, Fire Prevention Week has been observed on the
Sunday through Saturday period in which October 9
falls.
According to the National Archives and Records
Administrations Library Information Center, Fire
Prevention Week is the longest running public health and
safety observance on record. The President of the United
States has signed a proclamation proclaiming a national
observance during that week every year since 1925.
The 2016 Fire Prevention Weeks theme is Dont
Wait Check the Date! Replace Smoke Alarms Every 10
Years.
Does your home have a smoke alarm? According
to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA),
the answer is likely yes: NFPA research shows that most
American homes have at least one. But do you know
how old your smoke alarms are? If youre like most
people, youre probably not so sure.
A recent survey conducted by NFPA revealed
that only a small percentage of people know how old
their smoke alarms are, or how often they need to be
replaced. That lack of awareness is a concern for Valley
County Fire Departments and NFPA, along with fire
departments throughout the country, because smoke
alarms dont last forever.
Time and again, Ive seen the life-saving impact

Feeling overwhelmed?

The Manor or Valley View?

Let us help.

Call Shawn Beard 230-1025

smoke alarms can have in a home fire, but Ive also seen
the tragedy that can result when smoke alarms arent
working properly, says Brandon Brunelle and Chris
Knodel of the Glasgow and Long Run Fire Departments.
Thats why were making a concerted effort to educate
Valley County residents about the overall importance of
smoke alarms, and that they do have a life limit.
NFPA 72, National Fire Alarm Code, requires
smoke alarms be replaced at least every 10 years,
but because the public is generally unaware of this
requirement, many homes have smoke alarms past their
expiration date, putting people at increased risk.
As the official sponsor of Fire Prevention Week for
more than 90 years, NFPA is promoting this years Fire
Prevention Week campaign, Dont Wait - Check the
Date! Replace Smoke Alarms Every 10 Years, to better
educate the public about the critical importance of
knowing how old their smoke alarms are and replacing
them once theyre 10 years old.
To find out how old your smoke alarm is and its
expiration date, simply look on the back of the alarm
where the date of manufacture is marked. The smoke
alarm should be replaced 10 years from that date (not
the date of purchase). The Glasgow and Long Run Fire
Departments also says smoke alarms should be tested
monthly, and that batteries should be replaced once a
year or when they begin to chirp, signaling that theyre
running low.
The Glasgow Volunteer and Long Run Volunteer
Fire Departments are hosting a BBQ with hot dogs,
chips and soda pop at the Shopko parking lot on
Tuesday, October 11th starting at 5:30 p.m. in support
of Fire Prevention Week and this years campaign. The
event will include show and tell of fire engines and door
prize drawings.
