Fire Prevention Week Once again by proclamation of His Excellency the Governor General of Canada, a week has been set aside as Fire Prevention week Wily a Fire Prevention Week? Fire Prevention is a matter which needs attention fifty-two weeks in the year. It has been found desir- able, however, to designate a week in which the public consciousness may be impressed with the enormous cost of our waste in the hope that conditions may be improved and carelessness reduced. Canada's fire waste in 1941 amounted to more than $28,000,000 in property loss and 323 lives lost. If we are to give of our best in this war against Naziism, Fascism and Japanese Imperialism, we must reduce our fire waste by many millions of dollars. We must realize that every fire is a national calamity, something that eats into our reserves of much needed material or slows down production. Fire is one of the means by which the enemy hopes to defeat us and it doesn't matter whether it is of accidental origin or set by a saboteur, the same purpose is accomplished. Carelessness is the greatest saboteur to date in Canada. We can eliminate that threat to our war effort by being more careful with fire in our daily life. All fires are small in their beginning but they may develop into conflagrations. Our duty is to see that they don't start. Fire Prevention is really an application of common sense. Prevent Fires THESE SIMPLE SUGGESTIONS,- IF FOLLOWED BY EVERYONE IN THE FAMILY, WILL MAKE YOUR HOME SAFE FROM FIRE • 1—Put lighted matches and smokes out before you throw them away. Keep matches where small children cannot reach them. Never smoke in the garage, barn or,attic, nor in bed. 2—remove rubbish, waste papers'and all unnecessary combustible materials. Provide metal ash and trash can, Buri rubbish only in a safely covered brick or metal incinerator. Watch the lire. 3—Examine alt stoves, furnaces and smoke pipes to make sure they are safe and well away from woodwork or other burnable mat- erials, Have needed i•epafi's made at once. 4—Value the advice of your fire chief who says that many fires are caused by dirty or defective chimneys. Have the Chimneys Clean- ed regularly, and have all defects repaired. 5—Escape the danger of tnflammeble liquid fires and explosions by keeping no gasoline iris the house. Do dry cleaning with safe liqu- ids or send the work to the cleaner. Never start fires with kerosene. 6—Notify the electric company of electrical trouble and the gas company of gas leaks. Replace "blown" fuses with new ones—not pennies. Avoid home-made wiring jobs. Don't look for gas leaks with a Match. 7—Teach everyone in the family to be careful of fire, to watch stovgs, fireplaces, electric irons and all outer possible lire causes, and every day to remove old rags, papers and other rubbish. 8—Fireproof your hone as Far as possible by fire -safe roofing, fire stopping in hollow walls and partitions to stop the spread of flame, and a non-combustible basement ceiling. 9—Inquire of your fire chief, when buying a fire extinguisher to be Sure of getting the right kind. Don't hesitate to ask yotu' fireman whenever you have questions oil fire prevention, 10—Remember always where the nearest fire alarm box is and how to send in an a.larni. If telephoning be sure the.address is clear- ly under stood,. Use a neighbor's phone rather than one in the bursting building, 11—Captain to everyone in the house what to do In case of file, how to put mit 'fire in clothing by Wrapping in a i'ng 0:' blanket, what to do when grease catches fire in the kitchen. ' 12—Save life and property from needless destruction by fire by keeping 111e principles of fire prevention always in mind and novel taking a chance, with fire.
