SEAFORTH SEWER TILE LTD. Phone 740 Seaforth WANT ADS BRING QUICK RESULTS — Phone 141 DON'T LET ACCIDENTS MAR YOUR HOLIDAY! Follow These Rules of CARE and SAFETY'! Christmas Trees are filled with pitch and resin and when dry can easily ignite and turn into a roaring flame. To prevent this, keep your tree fresh and green by putting it into a container of water, or water mixed with sand. Cut the trunk diagonally at the end above original cut. Be sure water is kept above .the cut. , Ornaments on the tree can be dangerous, too! Don't use cotton or paper on the trees unless flame -proof, Never use' lighted candles on the tree, .or nearby. Keep ash trays and cigarettes away from the tree. Remove piles of opened gift wrappings. Do not place electric trains around the tree. Be sure the tree is Jcpt away from an open fir lace or heater. Check lighting sets for frayed wires, loose connections and broken sockets. Don't plug too many cords into one out let. If any extensive wiring is planned, call an electrician— don't try to do it yourself ! Last of all, `Lights Out' when you leave home and when you retire for the evening. 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 exercised.
