CAAJl? rIIlTCirriir 1 BEST, SAYS SAFETY COUNCIL By CHARLES E. SCOTT, . rrenidcnt of the National Safety Council, Written for the United News o.iCpyriht 1925 Unitud Newa) CHICAGO. Dec. 23.-Beware of an indiscreet Christ mag celebration. Around the Christmas tree many an accident has hap pened which has turned merriment into mourning. Safety in the use of Christmas trees may be assured by the exercise of common sense. If the tree is to be lighted up use only incandescent lamps. Candles or other open flames are exceedingly dangerous, especially if the tree is dried out. The tree should not be decorated with any inflammable materials, such as paper or cotton. Use metallic tinsel, or other non-inflammable decorations only and set the tree se curely, no that the children in reaching for things cannot tip it over. Do not use cotton to represent snow. If you must have snow use powdered mica or asbestos fibre. Do not allow trees to remain inside the building after the holi days. The tree ignites readily when the needles have become dry. The danger of fire cannot be stressed too strongly. Every year many children are burned to death. Most of these fires are caused by candles igniting the trees or curtains near the tree. In all public gatherings every precaution should be taken to assure the safety of those present. Exits should be marked plainly and all passage wa's to doors should be free of all obstructions. , Thirty-three persons, most of them children under 15 years of age, were burned or trampled to death in the little school house at Babb's Switch, Okla., a year ago Christmas eve. This fire was caused by candles and it so happened that the tree had been placed in front of, and blocking one of the two exits. The windows were barred and those who escaped did so through the one narrow door, which opened inward, and over the bodies of those less fortunate than themselves. Ambrose Issues Warning Keith Ambrose, chief of the Klamath Falls fire department yesterday issued a warning to local residents having to do with the care of Christmas trees. More than 30 deaths resulted from tree fires during the Vuletide season last year, Ambrose pointed out. Persons with some knowledge of electrical work should take care of the trees if they are wired. Candles are dangerous, when inflammable materials are near the blaze. , , After Christmas, the trees should be removed as early as possible, Ambrose said. ..,,,,.. --- 1 '""" THE NEWS CREW HOST TO SANTA Old Saint Nate Hand Out A Uift for All Hands And Their Kids unriatmaa waa celebrated laat night by The Newa family 23 dull, and three children.
