PARENTS ADVISED
 ON PRECAUTIONS
Children to Remain in School in Event of Air
 Raid-.SuggestiOns Made

The department of education has distributed thousands of posters to parents of Waterbury school chll- dren warning them to stay ct home if bombs should fall while their GhildreN are in school. Other inc 5tructions as to parental procedure are given.
 Parents are asked not to tele- phone school during an actual alarm and are reminded that schools are safer than dwellings during an air raid,
 The text Of the posters follows.
 1. If an air-raid comes while your child is in school, you should stay home, go to your refuge place, stay away from the windows.
 Since enemy planes may be ex- pected within five minutes after the alarm sounds you will endanger your child's life if you take him out of school.
 The following table of casualties from Britain shows how important 1t is for him and for you to remain under shelter. If persons walking or standing in the street are con- stdered in 100 per cent danger, they reduce their danger.
 50 per cent if they lie down in
 the street.
 76 per cent If they take shelter
 iil an entrance-Way.
 66 per cent If they take shelter
 inside c building. 96 per cent if they take shelter
 in Q refuge place.
 Therefore, the safest place during an air-raid is in Q refuge place.
 2. School buildings are safer than dwelling houses. Your child will be assigned to a safe place in his school.
 3. Do not try to telephone the school during q raid. Telephones will be necessary for air-raid pre- cautions work.
 {, Warn your child that he Is to remain iIl the house if he is alone when the afraid alarm sounds. Tell him to go to 6 neighbor on . lower floor if you live on an upper floor.
 5 If the alarm sounds at the time the child iS ready to leave for school, keep him home until the next seS- sion.
