CARBON MONOXIDE Is
A STEALTHY KILLER
tcontlnued from First Parel

Carbon monoxide is a stealthy
killer You cannot see tit has
no vapor or color. You can't smell
tit has no odor. But when coal,
gasoline. wood. Illuminating gas
and many other fuels containing
carbon are incompletely burned,
carbon monoxide gas is released in
to the air. 1t sneaks into closed
rooms. cars. garages, workshops
and strikes its victims silently.
When there is plenty of fresh air
in motion the carbon monoxide
mikes with it and it can do no harm
In closed places. carbon monoxide
is deadly poisOner. 1t enters the
body through the lungs. stops the
blood from absorbing oxygen and
suffocates its victims.
