County Home Not
Seriously Damaged

Although the fire at the County
Home last Saturday caused dam
ages of several thousand dollars
(fully covered by insurance), the
building itself was not seriously
hurt. The fire was confined to the
east wing, where the only structur-
al damage was to the stairway and
the partitions adjacent.
There was, of course, considerable
damage from smoke and water, and
several of the inmates had to be
moved to temporary quarters. New
mattresses and bed clothing have al
ready been purchased, however, and
it is expected that all inmates will
be comfortably settled back in the
home by the end of the week.
The trustees, the superintendent
and the Board of County Commits

BILE to get things back to normal as
quickly as possible and are going
to make certain that the fire will
in no way interfere with the joy

Christmas Trees
Can Cause Fires

Because of the highly fammable
nature of many Christmas decora-
tons and Christmas trees, State In
surance Commissioner Lawrence E.
Ensor is urging that every precau-
ton be taken against such fire
hazards. Remember that in a very
short time Christmas trees become
very dry and highly inflammable.
Commissioner Ensor specifically
calls attention to the lighting on
Christmas trees and the danger of
a short circuit in worn out wiring,
and suggests that before lighting the
trees that the lights be carefully
checked. Wherever possible elm
mate fammable decorations by us
ing metal, glass or other types Of
decorations.
If the tree catches fire, call the
Fire Department at once. Have
your fire extinguisher checked and
in close proximity to the tree. Flam-
mable decorations should not be al
lowed in any public building. Waste
materials should be removed and
aisles and exits kept unobstructed.
All of us recall the tragic fire in
the Boston night club a little, over
a year ago. This should serve as a
reminder to us of the urgent ne
cessity of eliminating serious fire
hazards in clubs, stores and other
public places.
Commissioner Ensor further
urged that those responsible for
maintenance and care of public
places carefully check into condi-
tons and eliminate all possible fire
hazards SO that our Christmas Sea-
son shall not be marred with any
tragic happening.

an average of a pound and three

two and a quarter ounces and, at

but quality is much poorer, and
