CHRISTMAS PRECAUTIONS

The records of the State Fire Mar
shal show that Christmas trees were
responsible for nine fires in 1912.
More properly, perhaps, the blame
should not be attached to the inno-
cent tree, but to the carelessness of
those who decorated it with inflam-
mable materials. Nine may seem a
small number of fires in a state of
such great population as Ohio; but
even only one would be sufficient to
prove that in these beautiful access
ories to the holiday celebration, there
ever turks the possibility of danger
and disaster.
But the danger can be avoided and
that without detracting in the least
from the beauty of the display or the
pleasure afforded by it.
Assuming that you have already
procured the tree, the first thing to
DO is to see that it is securely plant
ed, so that the children, in their en-
thusiasm and excitement, can by no
possibility pull it over.
Then in the work of decoration, use
only metallic substances, or others
which are not readily combustible.
Tissue paper and cotton batting have
too great an affinity for fire to be
placed in close proximity to lighted
candles. The snow effect. regarded
by so many as indispensable in con-
nection with a Christmas entertain
ment, can be better secured by the
use of mineral wool, or asbestos fibre,
than by the materials commonly used
for that purpose.
Having procured the tree, planted
and decorated it, the next important
thing to do is to watch it. Never
leave it unmatched while the lights
on it are burning. Children should

The course will be given in the
