Fire Dangers Told
By Underwriters

The danger of home fires will
be greater during the next three
months than during any other
part of the year, the National
board of Fire Underwriters points
out.
Year after year, fire losses
climb as the temperature falls,
the National Board engineers re-
veal. For that reason, they urge
householders to inspect their
homes to reduce winter fire ha-
yards.
Defective chimneys and flues
cause many of the fires which
break out in homes during the
cold months. Chimneys should be
inspected carefully, and all cracks
and holes should be repaired.
Flues should be cleaned.
Overheated stoves and furnaces
also endanger the home, the fire
experts point out. When heaters
fail to give sufficient warmth,
they should not be forced. In
many cases, the equipment may
need cleaning or repair, and
occasionally a new heater may be
required, but forcing" any heat
ing device is alays dangerous.
Portable heaters should be
cleaned regularly while In use
and kept away from combustibles.
In one state, neglected portable
heaters are listed as the number
one cause of serious fires in resi-
dences during the past Is years.
The National Board engineers
also suggest that observation OF
these seven rules would reduce
the probability of your home
catching fire:
/. Don't use kerosene to start
fires in stoves or furnaces. Use
rolled or folded newspapers.
2. Refill portable oil heaters
outdoors. Keep portable heaters
where they won't get knocked
over.
3. Don't overload electric cir
cults by plugging in too many
heaters or appliances.
4. Remove all rubbish. old
clothes, or papers from the base
ment and attic. and check to be
sure Chat no combustibles are
placed close to any heating de-
vice.
S. Always put ashes in a metal
container.
s. Place a tight-fitting metal
screen in front of the fireplace.
7Learn the quickest way to
summon the fire department, in
case of fire.
And if a fire does break out,
turn in an alarm Immediately and
get everybody out of the house
at once.

died two months and five days
before. He retired from work two
years ago on account of i'll health
In all his suffering, he never
complained. He met the world
with smile, and to know him
was to love him. He lived a
Christian life, and was often
heard repeating, God be my
helper, so I can live on, and do
unto others as l would have them
do unto me-"
He had many friends as was
shown by the beautiful flowers
that was laid on his grave. Life
was filled with pleasure as he
looked on the bright side Of
things He was loved by his
family and friends, and his pass
ing away has cast dark shadow
over their hearts, and We miss
him, but we know he is at rest.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs

And joined the snow white angel
bank.
Your soul is now resting in
Heaven above.

stock markets. Though western
Europe is apparently getting a
good grain crop, where it had a
poor one last year, there is a
more serious than usual shortage
of food in the world. This shortage
and price PARTIES will prevent
such things as dollar wheat for
some time.
Lumber prices too, may have
some adjustments, but the nation
needs considerably more housing
and observe the lucky few who
are glad to pay $500 for low
priced 1913 model car.
However, people are tired of in
flationary prices, and there is
buyer resistance which includes
more care by housewives as how
to spend dollars. Let's hope that
bread, milk, gasoline and cloth
ing have passed their peak post
war price.
That gives us no reason to be-
pessimistically predicting a rec
ession, and the last place to talk
ABOUT recession is here in the |
