Ridgell has issued the usual warning to people not lo spoil the merry Yule time by selling lire to Christmas trees or lo the whis kers of Sanla Clans. His instruc tions for people who desire to celebrate in their homes by erect ing a tree with presents on it, is lo lirst get a good lire exl iuguish er and keep it in the home. Then get a bucket of wafer and set il near the tree. Then get a bunch of. asbestos of mineral wool to represent snow, use eleclrie lights if possible instead of can dles on the Iree, :hire an expert electrician to put in the wires, and then let the festivities com mence, all of the time keeping a close watch on the furnace - or slove so that lhe healing ap paratus does not set lire to any thing. Under such circumstances the fire warden believes lhe Christ mas season will be a thing of joy instead of one of disaster. Mr. Ridgell has evolved lhe theory from scientific investigation lhat every lire is the same size at the start, but some grow "to an ap palling extent. "Is'it not -for use to prevent (he small blaze?" he asks. He asks lire chiefs of city and village lire departments to examine the decorations in stores and lo place a chemical ex tinguisher for use at churches or opera houses where there is a public Christmas Iree. "No dis astrous fires Ibis coining merry Yule time," is the wish of Com missioner Ridgell. Someone ouf sfde of lhe commissioner's office suggested lo him thai it plight be well jo have a law passed lo pre vent Christ mas tree celebrations within less I ban fifly feel, of any house or to bury the trees under ground as gasoline tanks are now required to be buried.
