But only a momentary forgetfulness will allow a disastrous fire to start, No victim of fire ever thought that fire would conte in the manner or at: the time it occurred. Safety suggestions are based on actual experi- ence which show how fire accidents happened and the precautions that could have prevented thein Most fires occur from special Christmas lighting, par- ticularly candles. Any open flame lighting should be ar- ranged in fixed suitable holders well away from flammable decorations, Christmas trees. window curtains and table cloths. Constant watch by adults should be maintained over them while lighted. Electric lighting circuits designed for tree illuminations should be examined for defects and proper size fuses Por candlelight services, only fixed holders for candles should be perinitted, and these located well removed from decorations and from where the public will pass. Much to be preferred are fixed electrical systems with specially designed electrical candles. The dangers from carrying or holding lighted candles' by the public taking part in the services are much too great ever to be allowed. Plash- lights P lash -lights have been satisfactorily adapted for members of the choir or for services requiring moving lights D'OTiLEON SILLS, Fire Chief ststsrmOssrosse
