OBSERVE THE FOURTH SAFE.
LY AND SANELY
By Chief of Police Morgan A. Collins

The toll of lives attendant upon the
observance of independence Day has
been gradually decreased year by year,
but still the lives of many grownups
and children are sacrificed through
carelessness. Fireworks, automobiling,
bathing, all exact their toll on this
day.
Fireworks Of all kinds, including the
so-called harmless sparklers and col
ored lights, are prohibited in the city.
Neighborhood displays may be con-
Quoted under proper safeguards and a
city permit.
Don't allow your children to play
with fireworks.
Blank cartridges may not be
charged with lead, but they are fire.
quently charged with death.
Don't neglect the slightest burn
caused by powder or explosives. A
burning garment on a person should
be smothered with blanket or coat
and the fire kept from the face.
"A senseless Fourth is commonly
followed by sightless and 6ngerless
fifth. It often happens that the Glor-
ious Fourth is too often the CORY
Fourth.
Automobiles should be extremely
careful on the roadways. Remember
a holiday attracts thousands to the
open.
Be very careful at the beaches.
Small children are easily lost to sight
and may get into deep water.
Be strong for a sane Fourth. Don't
be a sorrowing victim of your own
carelessness.
