Women, Beware
Cool Weather

Beware the burst of ener-
gy that comes with fall if
fall ever comes this year.
If the enthusiasm comes,
go outside your house. But
don't burn leaves or climb
rickety ladders.
This week has been pro-
claimed Emergencies Don't
Wait" Week by the District
Commissioners and the Ma
tional Safety Council has
pointed out that the most
dangerous spot in America
is the home.
The most dangerous time
of year: when the fall house
cleaning urge strikes and
women climb ladders, cut
their fingers on rusty screens
and burn leaves in yards.
Hanging draperies and the
trips to the attic to pack
summer clothes away are
hazards too.
So the council asks that
when your urge to straighten
UP comes, to beware home
accidents. The toll last year
was 100000 killed or dis
abled in the sanctity of their
castle.
