Fire Marshal Appeals For 'CIeon-Up'
 Make City Beautiful,
 Free From Fire,
 Disease
(BY THE FIRE MARSHALL


 Spring Clean-Up Time Is Here, Your Home Is More Valuable Today" The housing need is drastic. Yet Fire takes nearly 100000 dwellings, temporarily, at least, off the real estate market every year. A good percentage of these homes are total ly lost. Every 90 seconds a fire breaks out in an American home. One thousand homes are fire casu- alties daily, Once every 50 minutes someone is burned to death.
 Ninety percent of the fires that occur in our community, are caused by Carelessness, and can be pre- vented. We recommend to the peo- pie of Waterbury thr31 you look through your entire house for any, thing that might cause fire. Clean out waste papers, waste materials, and discarded articles you probably won't use again. Then clean up and improve your yard
 Any paint-saturated clothing, oily rags and cleaning cloths stored in your homes are especially danger GUS, and may cause fire spontan- eous ignition, get rid of them promptly.
 Other fire hazards found in homes; electric wiring should be checked to see if overlooking of circuits has produced heat and dam aged insulation. Replace worn and frayed lamp cords and have repair work done by licensed electrician. Don't interfere with the fuses that protect you by inserting dangerous substitutes when fuses blow out. AL ways use the correct size fuse-us- ually fifteen (l5) amperes in homes.
 Heating plants need attention, have smokepipe and chimney clean ed, check up for worn rusted or broken parts. Have them replaced. It may be advisable to call in a heating expert. Wood beams, boards and other burnable material close to a hot Smokepipepr furnace should be protected with asbestos board or other fire resistant material.
 Never use gasoline or naptha for cleaning purposes in your home. It is very dangerous because they vap- orize quickly and form an explosive mixture with air. A tiny spark may set off a devastating explosion and fire. Such spark may come from an electric motor or a static spark may be generated by rubbing ma terial together in the cleaning pro- cess. The fumes could be ignited from the pilot light on a kitchen stove, or lighted match or cig- arette. The vapor is heavier than air and may spread down to the furnace fire.
 Let us all put our shoulders to the wheel to beautify Waterbury, Conn, and make it spotless city, free from fire and disease.
