Fire Hazard ! Yourattention is called to the danger to • life and property from Christmas decorations, such as 'draperies, scenery, cotton to represent snow, etc. , Displays of this nature ..and the lighting arrange- ments in connection therewith add ' greatly to the ordinary risks of fire. See that inflammable material is clear of and .. not hung" over lighting devices, steam pipes, stove pipes, electric light bulbs, etc. See that the electric circuits are properly fused and not overloaded. Have all temporary decorations removed as soon as they have -served their purpose., Remember, nothing can render these displays absolutely safe, and that if accidents are not to mar the festive season, constant vigilanceand care must be exercised.
