the owners are shutting them off on warm days and lighting them again when the temperature drops back trouble develops when the operator allows too much fuel into the unit before lighting he said flames fill the heat er tt roars and makes unusual noiset as it expands and peop le panic chief lewis advised anyone who finds himself with this situation on his hands to do two things shut off the flow of oil and open the draft control in the pipe as wide as possible weighting it down to keep it wide open when the flames subside to their proper intensity the fuel supply maj be reopened and the draft control allowed to re turn to its normal position a solution of water and de tergent liquid or ponder can save trouble and expense if a live cigarette is dropped in chesterfield cushions on a mat tress or into any heavy uphol stored furniture chief lewis added if mixed in a pail or bowl and poured gently over the smouldering area it will have ten times the affect of soaking the whole piece with gallons of tap water he said the detergent allows the wat er to penetrate the materials most of the water taken directly from the tap will run ok and nd up on the floor these hints if memorized
