Most fires in the home are caused by CARELESSNESS!!! ■% ’ r Prevent Fires From Starting Nine out of ten of all fires could be prevented if you: 1. Kept matches away from tiny hands and encouraged adults to smoke safely (and never in bed), 2. Stopped misusing electricity by improper fusing, overloaded circuits and defective wiring and appliances; 3. Had your heating equipment and chimney annually cleaned, inspected and defects repaired; 4. Used fire-retardant roofing; 5. Never allowed gasoline, benzine, naptha or similar volatile flammable liquids in the home for any purpose. (Never use such flammable li quids for dry cleaning or to kindle a fire.) 6. Keep rubbish and unnecessary combustibles regularly removed from your home. Prevent Fires From Spreading Fire can spread with astonishing speed from floor to floor, through hollow par titions and up stairways. Existing buildings can be made safer by: 1. Using fire resistive materials wherever possible; 2. Cutting off basement from first floor by a heavy door; 3. Plastering basement ceiling with cement or gypsum plaster on metal lath; 4. “Firestopping” hollow partitions at floor levels (especially basement). 5. Installing automatic sprinklers in cellar. 6. If the garage is part of the house it should be separated by masonary walls or at least by metal lath and cement or gypsum plaster. Any door in these walls should be a fire door but access to the garage should be pre ferably from the outside only; 7. Have an approved fire extinguished of the right type available. Main tain it in operative condition. Understand how to operate it. ■M6» Baker’s Fi 1111 Boyce Street • > Newberry, South Carolina To be sure your property is adequately covered against loss by fire—come by and discuss your insurance with us.
