Your attention is called to the danger to life and property from Christmas decorations, such as draperies, scenery, cotton to repres- ent snow, etc. Displays of this nature and the lighting arrangements in connection therein, 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 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 vigilance and care must be exercis- ed.
