Activity reminiscent of the fall of

building and construction.
At present. more than 5000 mod

each, are being made weekly with a
total value running not far from

One Of the special posters will be
for the use of financial institutions

'The accident-proof home, of

that more than half of all home
accidents occur in kitchens and on

enough to prove that proper pre-

much to reduce the total.

which occur in the bathtub and
