.DON'TS:
Safety Is Watch,Uord
For a Merry Christmas

Here are a few "don'ts" for
Christmas, recommended by safety
authorities:
l. Don't give small children toys
involving alcohol, kerosene or gaso-
line engines. They may tip over and
set the house on fire.
2. Don't permit small children to
run electrical toys without the su-
pervision of an adult.
3. Don't permit small children to
use toy movie projectors without u.s.
ing safety film which burns slowly.
Ordinary film burns explosively and
gives off smoke and fumes which
may cause death if inhaled.
4. Don't use candles or light ex-
ira fires without being extremely
careful, especially in regard to can
dies on trees.
S. Don't wear inf1ammable cos
tunes, especially Santa Claus
boards, without fireproofng them.
6. Don't use inf1ammable orna-
ments and evergreen decorations.

How Other

Christmas

A melting pot of the World, Amer

Christmas to rural Englishmen
means not only the observance Of
Christ's birth. but also a parting Of
the ways between the old year and
the new. Preparations are started
for the next years farm work, which
begins right after Christmas.
Throughout the island such trap
pings as the holly and mistletoe re-
main undying traditions. nor is any
Christmas complete without the
Yule log burning. On clear frosty
nights the carol singers raise their
voices over the countryside. To
many Englishmen's despair, such
American customs as the turkey din
ner are gaining foothold.
GERMANY:
Two years ago storm troopers in
Berlin lit bonfres in the public
squares as a revival of the pagan
custom Of celebrating the winter
solstice. But this distraction will
not stop the Christmas-loving Ger
mans from decorating their trees in
every town and village, and joining
In the famed Christmas hymn,
''Stille Nacht. Heilige Nacht."
ITALY:
Most Italian families celebrate
Christmas eve and spend the follow

it is feast more for grown-ups
than for children, whose merry

But the good book. from which
all averages are compiled, said it
was six errors, even though the

must have deliberately chewed up
the infield to cause the baseball

who usually catches, was stationed
in the outfield for the evening and
was charged with three errors

1t was funny, but the batted balls
didn't take strange bounds for
Seattle. Bill Walker permitted the
Seals only five hits, and they scor-
ed only in the ninth on Wright's
triple and an infield out. Ed Stutz
apparently was left in the game
to suffer for some high misde-
meanor, for the Rainiers touched
him for II blows, and five bases
on balls.
