Final Vote Shows Religious Victory

Washington Star of Sunday.
More than SO out Of every 100 Wash
ingtonians are believers in God, il is shown
by the poll Of religious sentiment COM
pleted yesterday by The Star as part of a
national census on this subject A total
Of 2.527 ballots reached the Office before
the close Of the ballotine at noon yester-
day. OF this number 1880 professed a
belief in God i55 denied God and IL left
the voting space for this question blank.
The results Of the poll were mailed to
New York last night where tabulations
are to be made Of the votes of the readers
OF $50 newspapers throughout the country.
From the indication thus fer in the poll,
Washington is apparently well up among
the leaders. II not the leader. of cities with
the greatest number Of believers in God
and religion.
Exactly 1000 Of those voting reported
that they were active church members
and 1880 declared that they would not
want their families reared in communities
where there were no churches
The greatest number of affirmative bal
lots returned were those expressing belief
in God; the second greatest number we're
the 2.S26 affirmative answers to the ques-
ton as to whether religion in some form
is necessary element in the life Of the
individual and Of the community.
Almost as many failed 10 mark the
space to the eleventh question on sending
children to schools Of religious instruction
as did mark it. This was explained in
scores Of instances by notes stating the
voter to be unmarried or to have had a
family grown up.

Fire Precautions

10 addition to the enormous property
losses due to fires occurring during the
winter months. at least one out of each
ten fires reported annually during the
Christmas season results fatally. according
TO reports Of the National Board Of Under
writers.
The reports revealing the large loss of
lives were gathered from every State in
the country. and while fatal fires we're
shown to have occurred in sparsely settled
sections, the number Of deaths from Christ
mas fires in large cities is appalling
Candles on Christmas trees and in win
dows, where they can easily set fire TO
infammable curtains, head the list of the
origins OF many Of the fires. Certainly no
one wants this Christmas season TO be
marred by numerous fires. some Of them
perhaps fatal. when a little care will so
easily prevent it.
"A short list Of Dos and Don'ts, that
have been drawn up as precaution will
prevent many impending fires il everyone
will do their best to follow them. Here
they are:
IF you must have a candle in the win
dow on Christmas Eve, make it an electric
one-that is safe.
IF a Christmas tree is used. make sure
that 1t is securely set up so that 1t will not
topple over, and keep it away from heat
ing and lighting fixtures.
use metal tinsel. fake asbestos and
powdered mica for snow effects instead of
the highly dangerous paper clippings and
cotton.
DO not illuminate the tree with candles.
Colored electric light assemblies are more
ornamental and. II used with care, are
safer. A spotlight focused upon the tree
is, however. the safest method Of all, and
gives a pleasing effect.
Smokers should exercise great care with
their matches and smoking materials while
near trees and decorations, Keep matches
out Of the reach of small children
Toys requiring alcohol. gasoline or kero.
sene should be avoided, as should the
fiimsy toy motion picture machines using
inflammable film.
Cheap electrical playthings should be
forbidden. as they are often effectively
wired and have insecure. dangerous con-
nections. Such electrical apparatus has
caused serious burns and fires.
IF il is felt that Santa Claus must be
present at the celebration, he should be
persuaded to avoid long cotton whiskers
and should keep away from open lights
and fires. AS an additional precaution.
his costume should be made partially fire.
proof by spraying upon it a solution of
water glass. obtainable at any drug store.
IF anyone's clothing does catch fire. the
victim should be promptly rolled in a rug
or wol!,n cloth in order to smother the
flames. which should be kept away from
the face.
in order to prevent the spread of any
fires that may start, bucket or two Of |
water and fire extinsuisher should be |
kept at hand.
Merchants should keep their places Of |
business free from rubbish and paper &C.
foundations, and should insist that en-
ployees keep clear all exits
"A most important safeguard is to re-
move all evefereens Immediately after
Christmas. Aside from the tradition Of
