or injured, and property worth more

fire.
By any of these criteria, the ,cost
of fire -causing carelessness is
great. But the most terrible toll
is in young lives. A thi'r'd of those
who die by fire are children.
Some of these Children die because
they are left alone, some die be -
cause they pray nth matches. Thele
are other reasons too -but virtually
all the deaths are preventable.
Children -die in fires through the
ignorance or the carelessness of
their parents or other adults.
Don't give fire an inch - you'vegot far too much to lose!
