Keep the mer away from buildings and Ices. plany serious fires have been Irted by people looking for some-lu- g in closets with a lighted jatch, a candle, or an open flame np. Use a flashlight instead. Its t only safe, but allso much more invenient to do this. Somo times paint rags or oily rag3 itch fire by themselves, by spon- - neous ignition. Burn such rags ' mediately after using, or keep covered metal container. Things that will help to prevent t terrible fires are: Have your roofs covered with as- - ialt shingles, the ofing. Most fire prevention measures it so spectacular for one can see e fires that do not occur. Every y thousands of women send cloth--g to the cleaner, not only because ley have found that a good clean-- can do the work better than 51 ey do it at home, but more im-portant still because they will not tdanger their lives or homes by ling their own dry cleaning with Jasoline, naphtha, or other inflam-- . liable liquids. However, there are ; frobably just as many who, In send-- f ig their cloothing to the cleaner, do not realize what an excellent measure it is. S Unfortunately thousands of wo-men still do their cleaning at home, pissfully ignorant of the danger, ind through rare good fortune hap- - pen to avoid a fire or explosion. But sooner or later disaster may tome. I Just how explosions occur no one Mows. Friction in washing machi-nes or a spark from an electric may be the causes. rotor we use gasoline with safety in our automobiles, we are spt to be unaware of its treacher-ous nature. We all know that gaso-I'J- ie ignites easily and vaporizes readily. Few of us, however, realize that the vapors can be ignited or exploded sometimes by a fire many 't away from the gasoline liquid self. A fire and explosion may re-s- lt from cleaning clothes in one room and somebody's lighting a ijarette in another room.' One other thing that is not gen-ially known is that the rubbing '"gether of two layers of a fabric "hen cleansing it in gasoline freq-uently produces electric sparks, hclh will ignite or explode the Easoline. This means that no open 'ire or flame is needed to cause an wplosion or serious fire. The extent to which fires are not Prevented is shown by the esti- - average of 166,000 dwelling fires in the United States annually, and that over 5,000 lives are lost in home fires every year. Fire insur-ance may cover the loss of physi-cal property destroyed, but it can never compensate for the disrup-tion of the home and the possible loss of life or injury by fire. It is easy to provide fireproof ash receivers for cigars, cigarettes, and burnt matches. Reasonably careful habits would ellimlnate the tossing of lighted cigarettes or ci-gars or matches into wastebaskets, rubbish piles, or on the flloor. Al-so, thrown out of windows onto awnings, or onto the roofs of cars, or into baby carriages, as has hap-pened. What to do in case of fires: Keep your head use your head, get everyone out of the house if possible don't go back for the cat, valuable papers,, or heirlooms. Call the fire department know the location and operation of the nearest fire alarm box. Don't rush from a room that isn't on fire into one that is A closed door will hold back fire for several minutes. Don't jump from the building-experie- nce shows a better chance of escape by waiting for the fire-men. If your clothing catches fire, do not run roll yourself on the floor or ground. Call a doctor to attend to burns even minor burns may have seri-ous results if they are neglected. Carelessness is the main factor In starting disasterous fires. To help prevent them be careful. Fire! Fire! Don't shout at. Pre vent It FIRE PREVENTION Beverly Clayi (1st Place Winner in High School) Fire! The cry sweeps the nation in a maddening shriek accompani-ed by tragedy and pathos. The breathtaking toll of lives lost, and the pitiable ones who are left with serious injuries should toach a well learned lesson to our people. Millions in property is destroyed by unnecessary fire. Fires inter-fere with business and cause un-employment and suffering. Presi-dent Woodrow Wilson said that fires are a public, menace as well as a private misfortune. Why should this go on? We must stop It! There is no reason why the citizens of our country should not take dras-tic measures toward the preven ts In doing our part to conquer man's most terrifying enemy. The demon carelessness is Fire's best friend, and they tread hand in hand to bring on destruction. In the fol-lowing list will be most of the things we should, or should not do in preventing fires. Do not use combustible cleansers indoors. Do not bring cleaned ob-jects indoors before fumes have thoroughly evaporated. Extinguish the last spark of your cigar or ci-garette. Do not let dry waste or oily rags accumulate in some out of the way corner of your house. Do not leav electric Irons or oth-er electrical appliances on when not in use. Do not leave drafts of stoves and furnaces on too long. Build your rubbish bonfire where there Is no danger of spreading, tion of fire. We must consider the possibility that next year our life, or the life of a dear one may be numbered among the annual average of fif-teen thousand casualties by fire. Also consider that our property may be listed in next year's toll. Are we going to do anything about it? Therfe are so many things we can do! Science has contributed no end of equipment both for fighting and preventing fires. We should gladly take advantage of the num-erous agencies that have been de-veloped for our protection. The two principle causes of fire are carelessness and defective build-ing and wiring. Both of these may be overcome if our citizens have the spirit to do so. Modern build-ing materials and methods of con-struction, modern heating systems, fire extinguishers, warehouses, safe-ty deposit vaults and professional garment cleaners, all offer help for and watch it carefully. Have your electric wiring inspected regularly and repaired if necessary. Do not leave paper and kindling too close to furnaces or stoves. Make sure your match Is out before throwing it away. Never put hot ashes in combustible containers. Keep your heating system and chimney clean and in perfect working order. Keep children away from all fire and put matches beyond their reach. Extinguish camp fires completely. Never leave rubbish to accumulate in yards, attics, cellars and alleys. Never use combustible fluids to start a fire. Be especially careful of these fluids, for one quart of gasoline is equal to eighty-tw- o and one-hal- f pounds of dynamite in ex-plosive force. Fires eost the United States an annual average of one billion, one hundred and twelve million dollars. In nineteen thirty-fiv- e, the fire damage alone, amounted to two million, eight hundred fifty-si- x thousand, eight hundred and thirty-fiv- e dollars, not including the cost of equipment for the firemen, extra water supply, etc. Of this amount, nearly one hundred eighteen mil-lion dollars were lost in fire by un-known causes which were believed to have been largely preventable. So, we see that we have the abili-ty to control if we really want to. Let every citizen of our nation have "Safety" as a motto, "Care-fulness" as a password, and "Few-er Fires" as an aim. It is our duty to do everything in our power to lessen the tragic waste and destruc-tion by fire. We owe it to our-selves, our families, and our neigh-bors. Copperfield by Mary Kokles Mrs. R.
