CECIL COUNTY, MD. FRIDAY. DECEMBER p, 1914
INSURANCE
COMMISSIONER
URGES CAUTION

We are again upon the Christmas
Season. In our homes, in stores and
in many public places, Christmas
trees will be wired and lighted. Tie
trees become dry and are highly in
fiammable.
Because of the great danger OF fire
State Insurance Commissioner Law
renee E. Ensor has called attention to
the highly flammable character of the
Christmas decorations and Christmas
trees, and has urged that every pre-
caution be taken to safeguard against
fire.
Wherever possible, use decorations
that will not burn. Have your fire
extinguisher checked and keep in
close proximity to the tree.
Decorations which are fammable
should not be permitted in public
buildings. Waste material should be
removed and the aisles and exits kept
unobstructed.
In these perilous times we should
exercise every precaution to preserve
lives and property. Commissioner En-
sor expressed TIE hope that our
Christmas would not be married by
any tragic fire loss.

PAW Announces
Gas AII0ca ton

The Petroleum Administrator for
War has announced civilian easo-
line ALLEGATION calculated to permit d
continuance of present consumer raj
lions during the first quarter Of 1915.
The ALLEGATION is ], 144,000 barrels
a decrease of $4,000 barrels daily
from the fourth quarter Of 1914. The
cut allows for the seasonal decline
in the use of automotive gasoline.
Ralph X. Davis, deputy paw ad-
ministrator, said the ALLEGATION
should not be interpreted as mean
ing that gasoline is abundant
ION the contrary, he SAID, etka
position is not a comfortable one be-
cause transportation facilities tor
hauling civilian supplies are barely
sufficient to support the program.
However, the oil industry and the
transportation companies can, By
skillful management, attain this OBJ
jective barring unforeseen accidents
or further upward revisions ii the
military requirements

for the first three months of i As In
cludes: District east Coast
$4,000 daily, a decrease of 5. 1000
daily compared with the final 1874
quarter.

blood in honor of friend or loved
one in the armed forces. This an
nouncement was made by Miss L. M.
Wallis, Cecil County Chairman.
The new plan became effective De-
cember Z, Miss Wallis said, and for
each pint of blood donated thereafter
the donor will be allowed to inscribe
a label in kis own handwriting with
his name and the name of the service

Used to think that Christmas was
nothin but day
To get lot of presents and to give a
lot away;
Shouted Merry Christmas and
helped to trim the tree;
Just day of Christmas was all that
l could see.
Since found that Christmas is more
than any day,
Christmas came to our house-an
never went way.
Struck of a sudden that Friendliness
and Cheer IN
Was meant to be on duty more than
one day in the year;
If we're happy Christmas, why not
the day before? 4x
An the day that follows, and so on,
evermore?
Got to thinkin' of tan tkat is why
say
Christmas came to our house-an
never went away.
Lots of US go ploddin' along the road
of life,
An think one day of gladness will
make up for all the strife;
But the Christmas spirit can show
you how you need
To make each day Christmas in
thought an word an deed.
Used to pack the kindness in camphor
balls next day,
Till Christmas came to our house
an newer went away.
We just keep on givin' to strangers
an to kin,
An find that what is going out is al
ways comm in;
Makes the sunshine brighter where
we've got to live,
To learn that givin's keepin'; what
you have to give.
Holly in December and violets in
May
And Christmas came to our house
an never went away.
Used to think that Christmas was
nothin' but date,
Till / learned that truly you would
never have to wait;
But that it's the spirit that never
stays apart
If you let it find you and keep it in
your heart.
Since found that Christmas is more
than just day,
Christmas came to our house-an
never went away.
