Christmas Fires.

Christmas "Don 'ts" are being
issued by the fire wardens all
over the country.
If they are needed, the danger
from fires will be reduced to q
minimum. The "Don'ts" should
be read by those who intend to
celebrate the season by erecting
a Christmas tree. Following are
the rules.
DO not decorate store rooms or
windows with cotton or inham-
mable material.
Do not place anything that will
ignite rapidly near a gas jet,
electric wire or steam pipe.
Do not allow smoking of any
kind around crowded store rooms
or in cellars where boxes or
packages are kept.
