Loose Wires Are
Always Dangerous
No matter how innocent look
ing s wire danglingjn the strett
may be, says the Oregon Public
Utility Information Bureau, it
is nevertheless a potential death
hazard, and should be avoided as
one would avoid poison or small-Pox-
- '
Only a short time ago, two
Seattle boys were electrocuted
while trying to hoist a garbage
can to the top of a light pole as a
Hallowe'en prank. Numerous
fatal ' accidents have recently
been recorded where boys and
grown ups have attempted to
st'ing radio, aerials across live
wires of high voltage, or to
attach them to light poles.
Thtse high tension lines carry
almost certain death at all times
and sometimes even a "dead"
wire swinging in the wind strikes
a "live" wire and becomes an
.nstrument of death.
Therefore the best policy ia to
consider all loose wire as being
deadly, and keep as far away
from them as possible.
Look! Look! Look!
