of Christmas decorations and toys.

ticularly raw cotton, which may
be easily lgnited by sparks from
toy electric trains or hot lamp bulbs.
Lighted candles should never be
permitted as ornaments on trees
and wreaths or in windows.
For snow effects use metal tinsel,
flake asbestos and powdered mica,
but not cotton or paper unless it has
been treated to make it flameproof
or slow-burning..
Do not allow wrappings from
gifts to be piled up around the tree
Stree blaze might start easily.
Mechanical toys using alcohol or
other flammable liquid as a source
of heat or power for toys should
never be permitted except under the
direct supervision of an adult.
Remove the trees Immediately
after the holidays before they be-
come dry and a fire hazard.

The article was interpreted as cor
roborating the theory that the Earl
was the real author of Shakespeares

said he preferred to withhold COM

Mr.. Barrell is secretary of the
Shakespeare Fellowship, a group es-
pousing the "Oxfordian" theory of
the authorship of Shakespeare's
plays, as other groups attribute
them to Sir Francis Bacon and the
Earl Of Rutland.
