Now that the cold weather has arrived, end the fire hazard be- comes moro serious, the members of the ofiice of the fire marshal dee sire to bring to the attention of the public happenings of lR.e in places where fire has occurred and where, ln'solne instances, people have been burned to death. And you know what fire has done in recent auto mobile accidents. Fire has followed, and the riders have been burned to death.
 Nine Die
 Look at the recent case in Knox, ville, Tenn, where in two story wood frame building nine persons were burned to death. Many of US here in Waterbury live in two story wood fraIns homes: how many of us realize what fire can or will do. if 1t should happen during the hours in which all of us are asleep. Therefore, we of the marshal's ofilce again urge a close inspection, of the premises before retirement at night And if possible, if member should wake up during the night season, we suggest they make Q re-check of conditions at that particular hour,
 Several cases are on record where persons have been seriously burned In connection with banked fires In the ordinary furnace or stove. In some cases serious property damages has occurred, and some people sleeping in the house have died from the toxic effect of the gases
