This warning comes from the
National Safety Council, b^ause
Christmas accidents contributed
to the 14,000 deaths from home
falls last year.

and be careful when you reach for
the farthest branch.
The Council points out that the
holiday season brings many fall
hazards—placing decorations, toys
underfoot, boxes and wrappings
laid “temporarily" on stairs, slip
pery walks outside.
Another danger of the holiday
season is fire.
“The Christmas tree, filled with
natural pitch and resin, is one of
the most combustible objects
known,” the CouncU says, “and it
can bum so quickly it is almwt
impossible to extinguish the
flames by. ordinary methods. In
case of fire, caU the fire depart
ment immediately." ^
To help prevent Christinas tree
fires, the CouncU offers eight sim
ple precautions:
1 Buy a fresh tree. Be wary
of trees sold as “fireproof." And
don’t attempt to flameproof
Christmas trees with chemical so
lutions. ,
2. Keep your tree in a cold
place until ready to use it.
