CORNTHWAITE, SA See that all exits are plainly marked and not obstructed. Remember that nothing can render these displays absolutely safe, and that if aceidents are not to mar the festive season, constant vigilance and care must be exereised. Examine your fire extinguishing applicances and see that they are sufficient, in good order and readily accessible. If this is not practicable, a few simple precautions may â€" reduce the danger to a minimum, and these should be considered essential where large numbers of people and particuâ€" larly children are to be gathered. See that inflammable material is clear of and not hung over heating and â€" lighting â€" devices, . steampipes, stovepipes, light bulbs, ete. See that your electrical cireuits are* properly fused and overâ€" loaded by the addition of temporary lights. I beg to draw your attention to the danger of life ard property from Christmas decorations, such as draâ€" peries, sceenery, cotton to represent snow, ete. Displays of this nature, and the lighting arrangements in conâ€" nection therewith, add very considerâ€" ably to the ordihary risks of fire. I would also point out that should an accident of the kind ocecur in a crowded store or meeting, the rapid spread of fire in such inflammable material is almost certaim to occeasion a panic with attendant risks of life and limb. ‘The National Fire Proâ€" tection Association and the Ontario Fire Marshall recommend that all fabriecs for â€" decoration _ purposes should be immersed in a solution of Commercial Ammonrium Phosphate in the proportion of one pound of Phosâ€" phate to one gallon of water, If then slightly wrung and dried they will offer considerable resistance to fire until again washed.
