Danger from Fires

The following timely reminder aP-

Arkansas Democrat the first of the
week. 1t should not only be read hut
needed
With the approach of winter. when
some method of heating il necessary
to provide comfort during the chill
days and nights. the populace naturally
turns to the gas stoves. steam and
water and hot air. stove and range
equipment that provides the Yalorles
necessary for comfort Beyond seeing
that everything apparently looks All
right. few persons pay any particular
attention to their heating arrangements
to know that they ARE all right and
will not be responsible for fires.
Residents should examine. before
the heating season is on IN earnest, the
chimneVs of their homes to determine
if the precautions necessary to prevent
fires have been taken. An eXamina-
ton of a chimney before residence
has burned is much less costly than the
same inquiry after the house has been
destroyed and far more profitable to all
concerned Most of the fires that &C
cur in the United States each year are
preventable and could have been
avoided had care been exercised
In addition to examining the t'ues

tention should be paid to learning if
there are any careless arrangements
