Check Burners and Heaters
Now, To Prevent Flash Fires

We are now approaching the
danger season for flash fires
from oil stoves and heaters,
warns Herbert L. McNary. Elk
ecutive Manager of the Bos-
ton Board of Fire Underwrit-
ers.
Thoroughly inspect and
clean oil stoves and burners
before using, is one Of the
first pieces Of fire prevention
information handed out by the
fire department instructors
who visit the school as part OF
the year round Fire Marshal
Plan conducted in Boston and
other Greater Boston COM
munities.
Nest OF the flash fires that
take the lives of four, five and
more children in a household
can be charged to improper
use of home oil burners or
heaters.
In addition to the first bit
of advice to have oil burners
and heaters thoroughly inspec-
ted and cleaned before using,
the following helpful instruc-
I tionS are issued:
/. Be sure stove or burner
is set level.
2. Refill outside. Keep fuel
outside in safe container.
3. Never fill or carry it while
lighted
4. Do not leave it unattend-
ed after first lighting. Check
and adjust for at least first
IS minutes.
5. Never place heater near
curtains, tablecloths or other
hanging material that might
be blown across heater.
6. Never use burners or heat
ers in a room with all doors
and windows shut.
A number Of communities,
including Boston, now require
| in the installation of any new
range oil burners and space
heaters an approved anti
| flooding device. Such install
lation on existing range oil
burners and space heaters is
recommended.

Students And
Social Security

Vacation TIME is almost over
and once again millions of
students will be on their way
back to school Many Of ycu
students have worked ON jobs
this summer, and some Of you
may continue to work on a
part time basis while att End-
ing school this year. For
these students we have this
question. Did you make it
your business to see that your
employer made a complete
record of your correct name
and social security number?
If YOU didn't, please don't
waste any more time; show
your social security account
number card to your employer
as soon as possible.
Why is this important?
Each payday you may re-
member that your employer
deducted a portion of your
wages as your share of the
social security contributions.
1t makes good sense to get
credit for these wages on your
own social security account
if you are paying the taxes,
doesn't it? You will not get
credit for these wages if your
employer reported them with
out your social security num-
Der.
After you leave school, there
is good chance that you will
be contributing to and build
/ ing up vOlIr social security
