A Christmas tree makes the best kindling you could have in your home, so to prevent it from igniting, you must com- pensate pensate by choosing a freshly cut tree. and standing it in water at all times. Place the tree in the coldest place possi- ble, well away from the radii ator, TV set, radio, stove and fireplace. Most people put their trees up too early and dismantle them too late. Actually, no tree will last more than a week indoors, with nut drying out and dropping needles, at which point it is an extreme fire hazard. Keep colored lights turned on for short periods of time, and always turn them off be fore going to bed or going out. Check your lights before using them to make sure there is no damage to 'cords or sockets, and when buying new ones, make sure they bear the CSA (Canadian Standards . Associa- tion) stamp of approval.
