Dangers For Children NAllOWCCN Thu Halloween
SAFFTV ®
Lurk On Halloween
The world'* largest annual
masquerade party will take
place a* Oregon’s 349,000
elementary school children
join more than 30 million
other trick-or-treaters across
the United States this Hal­
loween.
As the children assume
their make-believe role* of
witches and goblins, real
dangers of accident and tire
lurk in the night, warns the
Insurance Information Insti­
tute.
Halloween is the one time
of the year that so many
children will be roaming their
neighborhood* at dusk and
after dark. Motorist* who
must drive on All Hallow's
Eve are urged to use extra
caution on the road—and
when backing out of drive­
ways.
The Institute cautions that
motorists should be espe­
cially alert for children
darting out from behind
parked cars.
A* the
nation's little
ghosts and pranksters make
their annual appearance this
Halloween, parent* can play
an instrumental role in
ensuring their safety. The
Institute offers these sugges­
tions:
• Escort small children.
Make sure older trick-or-
treaters carry a flashlight.
• Widen the eyehole* of
your children'* masks to
increase visibility. Better
still, use facial makeup
instead of masks.
• Choose Halloween cos­
tumes that are made of bright
or light colored fabric that
will be easily visible to
drivers. Put reflective tape on
dark apparel and trick-or-
treat bag*. In addition,
costumes should be made of
fire-resistant materials when­
ever possible.
• Keep lighted jack o'lan­
tern* and decorative candles
out of the reach of children
and away from flammable
materials such as draperies,
upholstered furniture and
paper decorations. A* always
keep matches and smoking
materials where children
cannot get at them.
• Warn your children not to
cat any of the treats until you
have had a chance to check
them.
In addition to Tire and road
hazards, there are other
danger* which lurk on
Halloween. Your yard can be
a potential source of danger
for unexpected after-dark
visitors.
To reduce the possibility of
accident*, take time before
dark to clean up any loose
debris, yard chair* and other
objects that might become
unseen obstacles. Remove or
replace loose bricks, stones
or piece* of pavement on
your walk* and driveway. A*
an additional safeguard,
make sure your yard is as
well-lighted as possible.
With a few precautions,
this Halloween can be a* safe
a* it is fun for children.
Thia Halloween, Pinkerton's,
Inc., the private security firm,
Whan youngatera come suggest* that parents take the
