child was seriously bruised.
Approximately 40 houses were
blown down in the Gardner settle

HARTFORD, KY. WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY l6, 1921
sHERIFFs MUST RE-
PORT ALL FIRES

Sheriffs of every county in the
state and chiefs Of fire departments
have been instructed by J. A. Stel-
tenkamp, chief deputy auditor in
charge of the state department OF
fire prevention and rates, that they
must report all fires that occur
within their Jurisdiction.
The notification, which has Just
gone out in the form Of letter,
calls attention to a law passed by
the 1920 legislature making it the
duty of sheriffs and chiefs of fire
departments to make such reports.
The state bureau, according to
Mr.. Steltenkamp, never has been
able tp list accurately all fires in
the state and for this reason the
law was passed. A report within
ten days is compulsory, and an al
lowance of twenty-five cents for
each fire reported is made.
