USE SCREENS
BEFORE FIRES,
SAVE LIVES
The lives of ten Georgians
could be saved in December if
everyone used screens to avoid
the dangers of an open fireplace.
Other precautions would avoid
another 30 fire burn deaths.
These predictions have been
made by the State Health De
partment’s Home Safety Unit as
it singled out December as the
peak month in Georgia for deaths
resulting from burns.
The Unit makes these estimates
on the basis of home accident re
cords for previous years.
Deaths from fire burns are 75
percent above the average in the
month of December, the Unit
reports. In Georgia during a re
cent three-year period there were
652 fatal home accidents attribut
ed to burns. Os this total, 126
deaths occurred in December,
averaging more than 40 eaeh
year.

SIMPLE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
HELP PREVENT CHRISTMAS FIRES
Yule Decorations
Can Be Source
Os Fire Hazard
The essence of Christmas, for
many of us, is centered in the
Christmas tree, with its shining
lights and ornaments.
But beware of those decora
tions!
A young couple and their 7-
week-old baby were severly
burned when a spark, apparently
from a defective lighting set,
ignited their tree last year in
New York City.
A mother was burned rescuing
her children from a fire in Brock
port, N.Y., which started when
their tree caught fire. A faulty
tree light plug seemed to be to
blame. Flames destroyed all the
family’s Christmas gifts.
In South River, N.J., a fire
routing 40 people began when
sparks from a toy electric train
beneath it ignited a Christmas
tree.
In Union, N.J., 2 families were
made homeless from a fire which
spread from a blazing Chrisi
tree. Evidently ornamental lights
had overloaded the circuit, which
caused the fire.
These are just a few examples
of last year’s tragic holiday fires.
Despite repeated warnings, there
probably will be similar tragedies
this year.
Key to the trouble is the tree
itself—filled with pitch and re
sin and extremely combustible. It
ignites easily and burns so fur
iously that it is virtually im
possible to put out the fire quick
ly.
As a protective measure, many
local fire departments now offer
to flameproof Christmas trees. If
your town offers this service, take
advantage of it. But in case, pro-

tect your family by following
these precautions recommended
by the National Board of Fire
Underwriters:
1. Choose a small tree rather
than a large one.
2. Store it outdoors until a day
or two before Christmas.
3. When you bring it in, stand
it in water and set it in a cocl
part of the house, away from
radiators, heaters and fireplaces.
Don’t let it block an exit.
When you decorate your tree,
remember these things:
1. Be sure every lighting set
and electric cord you use is in
good condition—no worn or fray
ed wires, no loose sockets. (Na
aturally, you never use candles!)
2. When you buy new sets or
cords, look for the UL label. The
ones that bear it have passed
Underwriters’ Laboratories tests
for fire and shock hazards.
3. Provide a switch some dis
tance from the tree for turning
tree lights on and off.
4. Ornaments should all be
made of fireproof materials like
metal or glass. Never decorate
with cotton or paper unless they
are labelled “fireproof” or flame
proof.”
5. Never set up electric trains
under the tree!
Even when your tree is safe as
you can make it, take these add
ed precautions as long as it is in
your home:
1 Don’t let gift wrappings pile
up under or near the tree.
2. Don’t leave tree lights burn
ing when no one is home.
3. From time to time, see whe
ther needles near the lights have
started to turn brown. If so,
change the position of the lights.
4. When needles start to fall,
take the tree down and discard
it—outdoors!
