WARN CITIZENS
Of FIRE CAUSES


Ordinary. precautions, according
to the Roe Island Chamber of

much Of the .country's half billion
dollar annual fire loss. For the
guidance of the public the organ

Of fire prevention week. few sim
pie rules resigned to reduce fire
hazards in the home. These rules
are as follows:
Before starting the fires for the
winter, it is important that careful
attention be given to the chimneyJ
and flues, for if they are neglected
the entire home may be reduced &c
a few charred embers. During the
.. five years ending 1920. property
valued in excess of 1000, 0S0 was
destroyed annually as the result o!
defective chimneys and flues. The
largest part of this loss could have
been prevented if an inspection had
been made, SCOT cleaned out, and
the necessary repairs made before
the fire was built in the fall.
oils and gasoline take their ar
nual toll of destruction because

ifgnorantly. Kerosene or gasoline

bustion They should therefore BIZ

Electric lighting and heating
apparatus should be carefully in
stalled and frequently inspected
Electricity alone caused an. average
of $17,000,0O0 loss annually during
the five year period ending 1920.
Disorder and untidiness breed
fires. Careful attention should
therefore be given by the house
