The tradition of illuminating Christmas trees dates back to Germany over 450 years ago. The story goes that Martin Luther, while walking home one night, was so impressed with the bright twnkling stars, that he put candles on his Christmas tree to illustrate their splendor to his family. Now electric lights have replaced the flickering candle flame, but decorated trees still must be roperly cared for so they will not be a fire hazard. It is also suggested this year, in the interest of conserving energy, that Chr- istmas trees and outdoor decorating should be lighted after 7.00 p.m., and for a short duration of time each night. "Safety should be the fore- most concern, when purchas- ing and installing your decor- ations this season," says Robert Price, electrical in- spection superintendent in Ontario Hydro's Central Re- gion * To ensure a safe and happy holiday, unmarred by the dangers of fire, Mr. Price recommends the following Christmas safety suggestions. 1. When purchasing decora- tive lighting sets and electri- cal appliances be sure they bear the Canadian Standards Association seal of approval. The large "C" enclosing the letters "SA" menas that your purchases have passed the severe approval tests of CSA which have been established for your protection. 2. Store the tree in a cool place until you put it up. 3. Keep it in a water-filled container. 4. Do not block an exit with the tree. 5.Make sure that all orna- ments and things like cotton batting, placed at the base of the tree, are fireproof and that circuits aren't overloaded with holiday lights. 6. Check both indoor and outdoor tree-lighting equip- ment for frayed wires, crack- ed or brittle insulation, broken lamp sockets or damaged plugs. Throw away or replace nder Photo by Astor and carried white fur muffs adorned with a single rose on each. The best man was Mr. Kelly Lavender, groom's brother and the ushers Messrs. Doug- las Woodcock and Gerritt Van Londen. For the reception held at the Grandview Golf Club, Osh- awa, the bride's mother recei- ved the guests in a formal gown of French blue matte jersey complimented by a white gardenia corsage. The groom's mother assisted in receiving guests in a formal length gown of aqua fortrel with a corsage of pink carnations. Following a honeymoom to a Banff Ski Resort in Banff, Mr. and Mrs. Lavender are residing in Oshawa. A rehearsal party was held at the home of the groom's parents in Enfield. Guests were present from Sudbury, New York, Brampton, Brama- lea, Toronto, Millbridge, Bow- manville, Niagara Falls, and Hampton. Happy Obeyed deteriorated lighting sets. 7. If a fuse blows, check first for defects in the lighting sets. If the trouble persists, call an electrical contractor for assis- tance. 8. Turn off the lights when you go out or leave the room. 9. Never use electric lights on metal Christmas trees and keep metal icicles away from lighting sets. 10. Manufacturers' instruc- tions on lighting equipment should be followed carefully. The safety features built into them may be nullified by careless or improper hand- ling. 11. Take down the tree as quickly as possible when the season is over and store all lights in a dry place. Outdoor sets should also be put away as the wiring deteriorates quickly from summer sun and heat. 12. When you purchase new appliances or electrical toys as gifts, examine each device for the CSA mark of approval. These few safety tipsý from Ontario Hydro will assure that you do have a truly "Merry Christmas" KENDAL On Monday afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Garland Cathcart and Mr. Arthur Thompson went to Cobourg first and accompanied by Mrs. Lena Burwash, visited Mrs. Grace Potter in a nursing home in Warkworth.
