The blaze started in one of the smaller struc- tures across Sacramento river from Red Bluff, and, fanned by a stiff wind from the north, quickly ignited the large structure. Flames swept the entire length of the building in a short time, reducing it to ashes. — Nov. 22, 1924 90 YEARS AGO... Fire destroys old sash and door factory Lately, the news fre- quently seems dismal at best. We hear con- stantly of man's inhu- manity to man and the seven deadly sins appear to be the norm in the world around us. We often feel that it is virtually im- possible for one person to make right any of the injus- tices done. Mason Cooley stated, "Compassion brings us to a stop, and for a moment we rise above ourselves." Indi- viduals, groups, and busi- nesses came together to ac- complish numerous acts of compassion last week. These random acts of kind- ness made the world, for many furry companions, become a better place. The people involved were not only from our immediate community, but spanned the United States. We may never know the full names of all those involved. Even if we do not know the indi- viduals, we do know that they rallied together, not for gratitude, but out of concern and unbelievable compassion. What were the unselfish acts that managed to bring some bright moments into lives that have known their share of bleakness? To begin with, our com- munity came together to hold LIFT Tehama, an event which connected people in need with various services. P.E.T.S. had the great honor of being one of the organiza- tions involved. People have pets and those pets are of- ten the only forms of com- panionship on which they can depend. Unfortunately, some cannot adequately provide everything required for the pets they adore. As a small organization, we needed help to be able to as- sist them. The help came in ways and amounts that stunned us. Donations of pet food and supplies rolled in. Volunteers from through- out the area dedicated a great deal of personal time to do all that was required, without question or hesi- tation. As a result, over 150 animals were cared for be- cause of everyone's self- less generosity. In addition, many other animals will benefit this coming month from food and supplies not used during the event. The second instance of the unselfish acts of the week was regarding an un- named injured stray mutt brought into the Tehama County Animal Care Cen- ter. He had a fractured pel- vis which, to fix, would require expensive sur- gery, far beyond what the county budget could af- ford. In addition, his inten- sive rehabilitation would require a dedicated fos- ter home for a period of at least six months. His op- tions were extremely bleak. "Would anyone step in to help a nameless dog," was the question of the hour. Quicker than a lightning strike, word of his plight spread through counties and states. In less than 36 hours, a foster came forth. Additionally, through the cooperative fund-raising efforts of organizations in Tehama and Shasta Coun- ties, over twenty-five hun- dred dollars was raised to pay for his specialized sur- gery. The funds donated were by individuals, some of which live as distant as the state of Maine. Com- passion for a no-name stray reached a new level in Tehama County and I believe history was made. Lastly, but no less im- pressive, were other ran- dom acts of kindness by assorted individuals. The Tehama County Animal Care Center again found it- self the recipient of a num- ber of dogs obtained from a hoarding situation. A lo- cal groomer heard about them and, without a mo- ment's hesitation, stepped in to give them the groom- ing they so urgently needed. Another citizen found puppies abandoned and much too young to live without care. Acting quickly she gathered the tiny babies and brought them to the Center, thus ensuring their survival. In a world filled with troubles, we know that there will always be ex- treme acts of cruelty and abuse. However, this past week we saw that one act of compassion, joined with multiple others, can im- prove lives. And, for a mo- ment, the world became a much brighter place.
