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.
