The next three months are the most
dangerous of the year for home tires.
Fire Chief George Harper warns.
According to figures of the Xa
tiona) Board of Fire Underwriters,
more iires occur in December, Janu
ary and February than at any other
season, chiefly because of heating
hazards. During these coid months
furnaces, heaters and stoves are
[ikeiy to be overworked and may not
he adequateiy cieaned and repaired.
Now is the time to protect your
home against winter tires, Chief
Harper pointed out, before any rea!
troubie has a chance to start. Inspect
your chimneys and dues where many
of the home fires break out. They
should be cieaned and aii cracks and
hoies where heat or sparks may
escape repaired.
Don't Force Furnace*
The chief said he especiaiiy wanted
to warn househoiders never to "force"
furnaces and heaters if they aren't
giving enough heat. There may he
something mechanieaiiy wrong with
the heating equipment, he said, or it
may need cieaning, hut forcing or
overloading a furnace may eau-e a
fire.
Be sure eombustibie rubbish, news
papers and oid magazines aren't ai
iowed to coiieet around the furnace,
or any other heating device. One
third of aii home tires start in the
cedar, so keep it as ciean from com
bustibie materiai as possibie. Use a
metai container with a cover it
for hot ashes.
Rultt for Safety
A few other rules for winter tire
safety at home are:
1. Place portable heaters where
they won't be knocked over easily.
See that they arent placed against
woodwork, curtains, beds, or chairs.
2. If you're having difficulty start
ing a fire in a stove or furnace, use
several sheets of newspaper twisted
together. But never throw kerosene or
gasoline into a stove to "quicken " a
fire. Kerosene, when heated, can ex
plode almost as violently as gaso
line, setting fire to the house.
3. Don't overload electric circuits
by plugging in too many heaters or ^
other electric appliances on one cir
cuit. Inspect your electric cords. If
any are frayed, have them replaced.
4. Keep a metal screen in front'
of the fireplace so that sparks won't
pop onto clothes, furniture, or rugs.

The North American shrike, com
monly known as the butcherbird, gets
:ts nickname for the unusual manner
in which it kills its prey. A shrike
captures smaii birds, mice and grass
hoppers in its strong beak and then
forces them onto thorns, fence barbs,
or broken twigs, in the same manner
a butcher hangs meat on hooks.
