SHOP IN MCHENRY !! FIRE PREVENTION TIPS GIVEN FOR YEAR'ROUND USE National Fire Prevention Week, Oct. 5-11, is a good time to start a year-round pro­ gram of fire prevention for your home. O.L. Hogsett, University of Illinois Extension safety spec­ ialist, emphasizes that a fire- prevention program will be most effective if you set up practices that you and your fam­ ily can follow regularly. Here are some suggestions: -- Keep attics, lofts, cel­ lars and other storage places clear of trash so that such areas are accessible if a fire starts. -- Store paint rags in cov­ ered metal containers, and dis­ card the rags when they have served their purpose. Make a regular check of the heating equipment, chim­ neys, flues and wiring systems of your house and nearby build­ ings. See that defects are re­ paired immediately before they can start fires. -- Remove grass, weeds and dry vegetation from around buildings and along fence rows. -- Within city limits, fol­ low local regulations for burn­ ing trash. If you live in a rur­ al area, burn trash regularly in small quantities at a safe distance from buildings. If pos­ sible, use a metal receptacle especially designed as an in­ cinerator. --Place fire extinguishers in buildings and on tractors, self- propelled harvesting machinery and trucks. By carrying out home fii'e drills regularly, you can help reduce panic in the event of fire in the home. Mr. Hogsett recommends that parents hold practice sessions to firmly establish safe behav­ ior in case of fire. Here are a few rules to fol­ low for safety: --Make sure that every fam­ ily member knows two ways to get out of every room. --Train everyone to get out of the house the minute fire or smoke is noticed. Don't take time to dress children or save valuables. --Have a predetermined spot for everyone to meet so that parents can check to be sure everyone is out of the house. --Teach children how to crawl on the floor to escape rising gases. And teach them not to open hot doors. --Instruct family members about the dangers at re-enter­ ing a burning house.
