been taken as a safety measure"
All drivers of private cars are

night for this means fire truck is
approaching,
During the many years of exist

Home Disasters
Soor in Winter

More persons in this country lose
their lives through accidents in the
home during the cold season than
any other period of the year, warn
safety authorities of the National
Conservation Bureau, accident pre-
vention division of the Association
of Casualty and Surety Executives.
Many children are scalded annual
ly in winter time while playing
about stoves, statistics revealing
that the largest group of scald vic
TINS is composed of children. Par
ticular precautlon should be taken
by parents against children being
exposed to this hazard during the
months they will spend SO much
time indoors. Small children are
frequently smothered to death in
wintertime by bed clothing, or by
adults sleeping in the same bed.
Bed clothing covering young chill
dren should be so arranged that it
cannot become twisted or tangled.
Asphyxiation Stealthy Killer
More than one-half the yearly to-
tai of deaths from asphyxiation by
Illuminating and other gases occur
during the winter. 1t is great
temptation to keep windows tightly
closed on bitter nights, but the prac-
tice is never healthful, even though
no gas jets or fixtures are turned
on or leaking Carbon monoxide
gas is odorless, colorless, and taste
less, and kills without warning. If
more householders would remember
this fact there would be far fewer
deaths from asphyxiation on cold
nights in tightly sealed rooms.
Motorists should be particularly
careful not TO warm the engines of
their cars on cold mornings with
the garage doors shut More than
so per cent of carbon monoxide
deaths among automobile drivers
occur during the cold months.
Ice, Snow and Frostbite
Annually many persons suffer
serious injury from falls on icy
walks, porches, and steps. The time
to remove this hazard is immediate
~ after the storm, when the snow
has not yet had time to pack down
into ice If thin film of ice or
sleet remains, this peril can be rem
dered harmless by sprinkling salt
or ashes over the dangerous surface.
Never rub frostbitten fingers or
toes with snow. kerosene. or alco-
hol The application of snow usually
does more harm than good, and kerr
osene and alcohol, which have a
lower freezing point than water
only further reduce the body tenn
perature. The best preliminary
treatment for frostbite is to warm
the affected extremities on other
parts Of the body Gradually cold
then lukewarm water may be ap.
piled as circulation is restorted.
