Speed should be cut down If weather or road conditions are bad. Hirr? and speed are at Qui not of moat serious accidents. Ptdaatrians should remember that Is la much harder for drivers to see them in darker winter visibility, especially at dusk. Dont obscure your view with umbrellas, or Christmas parcels. Both ' drivers and pedestrians should remember that accidents due to drinking are much more prevalent during the holidays.

Frank W. Andrew, agricultural 4M|gliteer, University of Illinois Colle-ge of Agriculture, says that eliminating an extension cord for tree lights reduces difficulty in making good connections, danger of shock from faulty cords, and possible tripping. Once you've set up the tree, make sure that norie of the wiring dangles in the water pan in which the base of the tree is set. If a bulb burns out. leave it in place until you can replace it with a new | one. Otherwise something may fall into the open socket and give a shock or cavse a fire. Also, if the lights have a fiber washer between the bulb and the socket, be sure to replace it. When you leave the house or go bed, turn off the tree lights. A branch may dry ont, ornaments may slip and break and a fire may result if a tilament of a broken bulb contacts metal decorations. restive >•111 l*H I IIM I H | » » pEPH X. WAYSlfE ..
