LIGHTNING DOES HEAVIEST DAMAGE IN RURAL AREAS Ninety percent of the damage done by lightning occurs in rural areas, according to Illinois Rural Safety Council statistics. Each year lightning kills 400 persons, injures 1,000 more and causes about $56,- 000,000 worth of property damage in the United States. Most of this loss is needless, says O. L. Hogsett, extension safety specialist at the University of Illinois College of Agriculture. A system of lightning rods securely fastened and well grounded, will give buildings almost perfect protection. To protect yourself from lightning, observe these few rules. When caught in an electrical storm, take cover in a building protected by lightning •ods if possible. Stay away from open windows or doors and fireplaces, stoves, pipes and other metal objects. Lightning tends to strike the highest point in an area, so stay away from isolated buildings, towers or lone trees. If you are caught in the open during a severe storm, lie on the ground so that you won't be a target for lightning. 3)aa^fd There's only one thing on the minds of McHenry's Job's Daughters these days.
