Tree Presents Top ~ Christmas Fire Hazard ;> The festive act of “bringing in the Christmas tree'' is also a potentially dangerous one.
That tree is highly combustible. Filled with pitch and resin, it will ignite very easily and bum so furiously that it is almost impossible to extinguish. Bringing it into the home brings in a definite and serious fire hazard.
To minimize the danger, the National Board of Fire Underwriters suggests some simple but effective safety precautions:
1. Choose a small tree. It’s just as pret'ty and is less of a hazard than a large tree.
2. Keep it outdoors Until a day or two before Christmas.
3. When you set it up, stand it in water .... or use a live tree in a _pot of earth. _ _ _
4. Place the tree in the coolest part of the house, away from radiators, heaters or* fireplaces. Don’t let - it block an exit. If it must go near a radiator, turn that radiator off.
