To remove candlewax stain, rub
the stain with ice and scrape it
gently. Then place the stain be
tween clean white blotter of several
layers of facial tissue and press it
with a warm iron. Then, if the
fabric will not be harmed, pour
boiling water through the stain. Or
sponge with cleaning fluid.
Chriitmms Decorations
Each year thousands of Ameri
can families suffer needless injur
ies. loss of life and destruction of
property due to accidents involving
holiday decorations. Many of these
accidents, from the child taken to a
hospital after swallowing pieces of
a broken ornament to the family
burned to death in a home fire after
a Christmas tree ignited, can be
traced to unsafe or improperly used
decorations. The U.S. Consumer
Product Safety Commission esti
mates that this year 3500 indivi
duals will be treated in hospital
emergency rooms for injuries as
sociated with holiday decorations.
Metal trees present no fire
hazard in themselves. However they
can be the source of a serious shock
hazard if electric lights are at
tached to the tree. Sharp metal
edges may cut the cord insulation;
the metal needles might touch an
electrically charged component.
Either way, the whole tree will
become electrically charged, and
anyone touching the tree and a
grounded object at the same time
could receive a severe shock.
If you purchase a plastic tree, it
should be made of fire-resistant
material. This does not mean that
the tree will not burn, but only that
it will not catch fire easily. As with
natural trees, keep away from heat
sources.
All lights should be fastened
securely to the tree. No light bulbs

should come into direct contact
with the needles or branches.
Curtains and other flammable
materials should also be kept away
from bulbs.
Don't overload extension cords.
Don't put more than three sets of
lights on any extension cord. Keep
the connection joints away from the
water supply of a live tree.
Any outdoor lights should be
weatherproof and clearly identified
as designed for outdoor use. Don't
try to use indoor lights for outdoor
lighting. Remove outdoor lighting
as soon as the season is over; even
these lights are not designed to
withstand prolonged exposure to
the elements.
When you leave the house or
retire for the evening, be sure that
all lights are turned off by unplug
ging them from the wall outlet.
Always disconnect any electrical
appliance by grasping the plug, not
by pulling on the cord.
TREE ORNAMENTS AND
TRIMMINGS. Avoid placing
breakable ornaments or ornaments
with small detachable parts on
lower branches where small chil
dren or pets can reach them and
knock them off. Every year many
children are treated for cuts from
broken ornaments or for swallow
ing ornament parts.
Trimmings used on trees or
around the home should be no
combustible or flame resistant. An
often unrecognized hazard exists in
the use of spun glass "angel hair"
and spray-on artificial snow, both
non-flammable if used alone.
When the snow is sprayed on angel
hair, the dried combination burns
rapidly if accidentally ignited.
FIREPLACES. Fireplaces are
particularly popular during the
holidays. Before starting a fire,
remove all decorations from the
area and be sure the flue is open.
Keep a screen in front of the
fireplace any time a Fire is burning.
Never use the fireplace as an
incinerator. Do not burn wrappings
or evergreen boughs there. These
can burn suddenly and rapidly,
throwing off sparks and burning
debris. Dispose of wrapping paper
immediately.
