Homes, churches. schools and

day parties should make fire safe
ty as much a part of those plans

Holiday parties often center
around Christmas tree-and be-
cause trees are extremely COM

suggested:
|. Don't set the tree up near any
stairway or elevator shaft which
would provide a draft.
2. The tree should not block a
door or any exits.
3. Someone in authority should
inspect the tree every day to de-
termine whether it should be left
up for a longer time.
4. Be sure plenty Of ashtrays
are provided for smokers. Don't
allow smoking near the tree.
5. See that all decorations in the
room have been flameproofed.
An added fire hazard exists II

clothes made of net or gauze-like
fabrics are worn. II it is impos-
