BEWARE of fire hazards Winter is time for heaters and fires; and increased fire risks! 70% of all burns to young children are caused by touching unguarded fires or by clothing catching alight. IN YOUR HOUSE BE SURE: 1. All fires and heaters are guarded. 2. That all members of the household understand how inflammable most clothing is. 3. That special attention is taken to protect a child in a long nightie. 4. If clothing catches alight wrap the person quickly in a hearthrug or something similar. ISSUED BY THE N.Z. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH.
