and Citizens Tliis is the Christmas time The month in which we celebrate the birth of the Savior of the world by appropriate exercises and the giving of gifts old and young all enter into the spirit of the season and in order that nothing may occur to mar the pleasure of this occasion I wish to call your attention to the dangers that lurk around the Christmas tree and the flimsy materials that are sometimes us ed in decorating it Cotton-bat ting and celluloid and other in flammable material ought not to be used either on or around the Christinas trees chimneys or in show windows in stores Asbestos wool will represent snow just as well as cotton and can be used by Santa Claus for has hair and beard There are all sorts of decorations that can be used upon the Christmas tree and for decorating purposes that will not endanger lives A Christmas tree covered with candles is dangerous in itself as the tree if the least mite dried will burn if brought in contact with one of J 1ttle nrndls on t In ease the treo cannot hi- lit with lfcH bulbs wifci reflect oi s can be sv S3 the light can be thrown upon th tree and it will look just as attractive to the children and will ncit cndinger their lives Churches school hvuH and public halls are usually packed to overflowing at these Christmas exercises and the smallest con flagration may cause a panic and the livis of little children may be stamped out under the feet of larger persons even though tli fire may not destroy the building I beg of you to take every pre autin aganst any tiling occur ring tilit will make th anniver irv of Christmas a sad one in the homes cl people in this state and f hepe that after the tis cl the coming Christmas are over that there will net he an ac count of a pathetic scene printed in
