HINTS TO RADIO FANS.
Manager Richardson Calls Attention to
Electric Wire Dangers.
To All Radio Enthusiasts -

10 All RADIO Enthusiasts =.
This company. while whole-heartedly
DESTROYS of stimulating and fostering
radio enthusiasm, believes it owes the
public the duty of sounding a note OF
warning to prevent Il repetition of the
tragedy that claimed two lives in Cieyc-
land few days ago.
Death has only recently entered the
homes Of several Detroit boys and it is
the hope of this company that the warn
ing we are now sounding VIII prevent
any such occurrence here.
To that end it asks the public generally.
and those interested in radio activities
particularly, to observe rigidly the fol
lowing advice in order to eliminate the
danger of death or serious injury and
fire hazard: se# sa...
Never pick up a wire lying on the
ground or dangling from pole. The
wire might be alive, that is, charged with
electricity to a dangerous degree. Re
port fallen wires Immediately TO the pc
lice department.
Never climb a pole to which wires are
attached. They might be in contact with
high voltage wires.
Never string wireless aerials over or
under any other wires. Should these two
sets of wires come into contact with one
another the aerials might become dam
gerously charged.
Never attach radio aerials or anything
else to poles carrying wires of any sort
Accidental contact with live wires may
cause injury or death or bring about
fires.
Always attach aeriaIs to substantial
supports, so located that if either sup
port or aerial breaks it cannot come into
contact with other wires.
Remember that it is quite practical to
operate a radio receiving set with an in
door aerial.
The company seeks especially the CO.
operation of parents in carrying out
these safety suggestions. Read them to
your children.
Purely in interest of public safety, the
company is forced to forbid the attaching
Of any radio, aerial to its poles and TO
insist that no radio antennae be strung
above its power distributing wires

That electrical storm down in Brattie-
