already mentioned were burns and
scalds. Burns by steam and hot
liquids were the most frequent, and
they were probably due to faulty
practices rather than to unsafe
equipment or design of the kitchen.
Lifting the lid of a pot so that the
steam escapes away from her, max
ing sure the potholders are thick
enough and dry, turning pot handles
in SO that they do not project over
the edge of the range-such simple
precautions as these will save the
homemaker many injuries.
Not all kitchen burns and scalds
are suffered by the housewife. Chill
dren are too often the innocent VIC
TINS. The kitchen during meal prep
aration and cooking hours is not a
safe place for children to play, and
the mother who can arrange inter-
esting play activities in a safe spot
perhaps near but not in the kitchen
will be protecting her children
from unnecessary harm and will be
freeing herself from those distrac-
tons which may claim her attention
at a critical moment. The provision
of safe play areas for young chill
dren is a problem for the designer.
Watch Out for Falls

death or injury occur in other parts
of the house, but about 1 in 10 takes

Safety in the Kitchen
Where 1 Out of 5 Home Accidents Occur
By THOMAS FANSLER, Director, Home Division,
National Safety Council, Chicago

A STUDY of hospitalized home
a accidents, made some time ago,
indicated that more accidental in
juries were sustained in the kitchen
than in any other room in the house.
Falls, burns and scalds, collisions
and bumps, cuts and scratches and
poisonings were the main causes for
sending some 1900 persons t the
hospital. Of this total of 1900 in
juries, more than 800-almost one
out of every five-occurred in the
kitchen. And no wonder, for the
kitchen is certainly the busiest room
in the house. The average home
maker spends a large part of her
time there, and every member of
the household is in and out of the
kitchen almost from the moment of
arising to the final going to bed.
Therefore, it is highly imperative
that in renovating, remodeiing, or
building a kitchen, thoughtful con-
Sideration be given to features which
reduce hazards and assure maxi
mum safety.
Faulty Practices Often Responsible
Fire is a wonderful servant of man
when it is under complete control.
Fire out of control may be very
dreadful in its results. And in the
kitchen the homemaker is constantly
dealing with fire or heat and hot
surfaces and liquids. 1t is hardly
surprising, then, that more than a
fourth of those 800 kitchen accidents

An Editorial
Decisions

/t1EIl1 VIC IcoiiNS Hos'
w every day of our lives we make
decisions-some major, with far
reaching consequences, and many,
many minor ones.
Most of us make three major de-
cisions-the choice of a life partner,
the vocation we will follow and
where we will settle down to prac-
tice that profession or calling. 1t is
unfortunate if we treat any of these
lightly.
The day by day minor decisions
make little difference-the sort Of
hat one buys for this season-what
we serve at the club luncheon.
Then there are those in between
decisions which do not appear so i'm
portant but which may have definite
effects upon else. Maybe it
is deciding that a child will wear
some article of clothing which will
make it conspicuous. Children are
sensitive to such seeming trifles.
Their associates are unkind in ridi-
cule.
Then there are the parents who
decide that their son is physically
hurt if he plays football and they
refuse to give their permission. The
boys leg may not be broken-but
his spirit is.
Watch out when making decisions
which involve other people, particu-
1arly members of ones family. In re-
gard to children, let them make a
wrong decision in minor problems
early in life and they will realize
that it does make a difference which
way they decide.
Do you remember
Alice in Wonderland meeting with
the Cheshire Cat and their CONVEX
sation?
"Would you tell me, please, which
way 1 ought to walk from here?"
'"That depends a good deal or
where you want to get to-" said the
Cat.
81 don't much care where" sale
Alice.
"Then it doesn't matter which wa,
you walk" said the Cat.
Isn't that true about decisions?

perry by spilled grease Or water or
fruit Feelings account for many falls
in the kitchen. Falls from chairs,
tables and other equipment used by a
person reaching into high places are
another type. The remedy for spilled
grease and water is to wipe them up
Immediately. The precaution against
high shelves and other hazardous
arrangements is to have a kitchen
designed for safety.
Designers are at work to assure
that the modern home will attain
high standards of safety. Most of us,
however, will not be in the market
for a new house Immediately, and
some remodeling or renovating is ali
that we can look forward to in the
e future. Even so, it still will be
possible for us to make our kitchens
more efficient, easier to work in and
safer by attention to some OF the
items listed in the paragraphs that
follow.
Advancement
In laying out a modern kitchen
the same as in laying out a modera
factory-safety must be made am
integral part of the plan. To achieve
this result, the plan should provide
for the "straightline" preparation OF
food from raw materials to finished
products. These operations are re-
ceiving, storing, washing, cooking,
serving, waste disposal. The mod
ern s~tep-saver kitchen take these
operations into account and become
safety kitchens insofar as they re-
duce fatigue and eliminate unneces-
sary criss-crossing of traffic lanes.
To prevent bumps and collisions,
doorways in the kitchen should be
arranged to permit a free flow OF
traffic. All doors should be hung
SO they do not bump against equip
ment or cabinets or other doors. A
door leading to the cellar stairs
should not open directly Upon the
stairs but instead should open upon
a landing at least 80 inches wide.
Equipment
To eliminate, as far as possible,
the human element in accidents,
equipment should be made to OPP
crate automatically. Manufacturers
have made enormous forward strides
in recent years in designing 'fool-
proof" equipment, and unquestion-
ably there will continue to De great
improvement in quality of design
and installation as well as in per.
Torrance.
Work Space

Montana farmer-stockman., 1949-01-15
Work Space

PerhapS no one factor contributes
so much to efficient and safe kitchen
operation as the proper division OF
the oom into work spaces or work
areas. Such ALLEGATION of space re-
duees traffic in the kitchen and con-
serves the homemaker's energy .
thus decreasing the fatigue hazard.
The cooking area should include
counter space on either side of the
range for greater ease and safety in
the handling of hot foods and uten-
sis. The range should be located
nearest the dining area, whether
that dining area be in the kitchen
itself, in a dinette alcove or in a
separate dining room. This permits
the serving of'hot foods with as little
traffic as possible. AS a safety pre-
caution the range should be at least
II inches, and preferably 18, FROM
the doorway so that persons can
pass freely in and out the door with
out danger of brushing against the

 Canadian aviation authorities, who had forbidden the trans-Atlan- tic flight as unsafe for single engined civilian planes, had ordered Mrs. Morrow-Tait to fly back to Bangor, Me.
