Don't. Let. This
Happen to You
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 combus-
tible materials. Provide metal ash and trash cans. Burn rubbish
only in a safety covered brick or metal incinerator. Watch the fire.
3—Examine all stoves, furnaces and smoke pipes to make sure
they are safe and well away from woodwork or other burnable ma-
terials. Have needed repairs 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 inflammable liquid fires and explosions
by keeping no gasoline in the house. Do dry cleaning with safe liq-
uids 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
stoves, fireplaces, electric irons and all other possible fire causes, and
every day to remdve old rags, papers and other rubbish.
8—Fireproof your home 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 your fireman
whenever you have questions on fire prevention.
10—Remember always where the nearest fire alarm box is and
how to send an alarm. If telephoning, be sure the address is clearly
understood. Use a neighbor's phone rather than one lipthe burning
building.
11—Explain to everyone in the house what to do in ease of fire,
how to put out fire in clothing by wrapping in a rug or blanket, what
to do when grease catches fire in the kitchen.
12—Save life and property from needless destructionby fire by
keeping the principles of fire prevention always In mind and never
taking a chance with fire.

main geographic regioAs,. Level^lfior.
tilers Limited have revealed how lily«.
ing eonditipns in ,moderate and I.,qw
cost homes compare with each other.
in different parts of Canada and with
the country a$ a whole,
"Food, Clothing and Shelter — the
three basic needs of every human be-
ing -•=Should be available to everyone,
at a price which they can afford to
pay and of a standard which makes.
for healthy, happy, comfortable liv-
ing,”
iving," said C. A. Massey, Lever Presi-
dent, speaking to the Kiwanis Club
of Montreal recently, "This has al-
ready' happened with food and cloth-
ing. Why has it not happened with
housing?" continued Mr. Massey.
Women researchers visited homes
throughout Ontario and the rest of
Canada 'and interviewed housewives
to find out how their homes meets
basic household needs in terms of
Shelter, Feeding and Cleaning. They
found that Ontario houses are
amongst the poorest planned in Can-
ada from the standpoint of getting
sunshine indoors. Equal to the na-
tional average of 27 per cent of Can-
adian city homes which need arti-
ficially • lighted rooms during the day,
Ontario city figures are exceeded on-
ly by Quebec with 39 per cent. In
small towns (29%) and on farms
(11%) Ontario figures for gloomy
rooms are the worst in Canada, and
exceed the all -Canada average by 12
per cent and 4 per cent respectively.
An but one per cent of Ontario
city people have running water laid
on in their homes. Less well off and
8 per cent worse than thenational
average are small town homes, with
36 per cent deficiency. Half of all
Ontario farms are similarly handi-
capped, .although they outdo their fel-
low Canadians, two-thirds of whom
must pump water from a well, stream
or other primitive source.
The hot water necessary for . so
many household tasks is not always
conveniently obtainable from taps.
More people have it in winter when
furnaces are lit. In summer time,
just over a third of Ontario city peo-
ple have plentiful supplies at all
times. Another 42 per cent have it
by lighting gas, electric' or coal heat-
ers, and 19 per cent must heat it 'in
kettles or other containers on top o .
the stove. This inconvenient method
is also' used by 69 per cent of small
town people and by 80 per cent of
farmers' wives:
• In the matter of bathroom equip-
ment this province is a little better
than average. Regular bathtubs are
lacked' by 13 per cent of Ontario city
people, by 60 per cent of small town
folk, and by 66 per cent of farmers.
The comparable national shortage is
18, 54 and 75 per cent. Wash basins,
the other most common. bathroom
piece, are to be found in four out of
five city homes, almost half the
small town homes, and almost a
third of farm homes. Showers are
rare amongst the homes surveyed and
in Ontario they seem to be no more
popular than in any other part of
Canada.
The prevalence of unhealthy and
outmoded outside toilets in rural ar-
eas is well known. In cities, where
crowded living conditions would tend
to 'multiply their effects, a national
average of 4 per cent of moderate and
low-cost homes are still dependent on
these antiquated and unsanitary
things. More significapt are the Lever
regional figures, which show that
Quebec alone has succeeded in ban-
ishing them from her cities. Next best
is British Columbia with 2 per cent,
followed by Ontario with 3 per cent.
Worst of all are Prairie cities, 15 per
cent, with the Maritimes 10 per ce`ht
a little better, though still bad en-
ough. ,
Overcrowding, avhich is Canada's
worst housing headache, has • not
missed Ontario. Aggravating it are
boarders, lodgers arid hired help, who
live in one out of every five city
homes, every eighth village home and
more than a quarter of farm houses.
To add to the crush, near relatives—
married daughters, sons, parents,
grandparents, etc.—are living with 9
per cent of city families, 7 per cent
of village families and 18 per cent of
farm families. This overcrowding is
not all due to wartime shifts in pop-
ulation, as investigators found no sur -
'plus of living accommodation any-
where in Canada.
A result of this convention is to be
found in the number of Ontario peo-
ple who report they. have •no bed-
rooms to sleep in. In Ontario cities
11 per cent, in villages 12 per cent,
and on farms 2 .per cent have to bed
down in living rooms, dining rooms,
kitchens, or anywhere a cot or a
couch can be made up.
For a great many foods cooling is
lust as important as heating is for
others. Ontario leads all other reg-
ions in ownership of refrigeration
facilities. Grouping mechanical and
ice refrigerators together, Lever's
found that 93 per cert of urban dwel-
lers; three-quarters of non-farm rural
people, and almost half the farmers
questioned have such equipment.
Washing machines—more ' plentiful
In Canada than in any other country
—are in better supply in Ontario than
in most other provinces. Laundry
tubs—the stationary built-in kind—
are missing from three-quarters of
city homes, nine -tenths of village
homes, and farm homes don't have
any Most of these women use the
less convenient movable metal kind
that have to be lugged around, filled
by hand and tipped or baled out af-
ter each rinsing.
In a general observation of the
state of Ontario house interiors, Lev-
er investigators found that more than
half are cracked, discolored and in
need of paint, paper and general re -
,finishing. More than one in every
eight houses in Ontario cities and
small towns are so ruts down that
only major repairs or replacements
will restore the original apli'earanee
of walls, boors and ceilings. In equal-
ly unsatisfactory condition are almost
a gluaxtter of °Mails farm houses.

Canadian
Homes Survey
Houses crammed end to end in
poorly planned ribbon development
deprive householders of sunlit rooms.
Over a quarter of the homes in the
cities and small towns of Ontario
need artificial light in some room of
the house during the daytime. On
farms one would expect spacious sur-
roundings to ,allow sunlight indoors.
Surprising, therefore, is the finding
that 11 per cent of Ontario farm-
houses need lights on during the day.
Clustered outbuildings added to the
main building are reported as the
reason.
