AT
CHRISTMAS
Save Lives and Property Loss!
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.
To Citizens of Seaforth and District We Extend Best
Wishes for a Happy Holiday Season!
