HI and LOIS by So says the VA...^ J and Dik Browne FIRE SAFETY IS FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY i\ ' A fire is no fun.. .but fire safety, especially wh?r. the whole family practices it together, really can be fun. Here are some fire safety rules you can practice at home. 1. Plan two escape routes from every room. It 's im­ portant. Fire, often blocks a door or a window, but you won't lose a minute in your escape if you've planned escaping two different ways from each room 2 Practice home fire drills Planning and thinking about what you'll do in case an emergency is really not enough You've got to practice escaping, and meet­ ing in a pre planned place outside and away from the house As soon as you think all the members in your family have gathered out­ side the house, count noses to be sure everyone is safe. 3 Installing smoke detec tors is a family business- checking to be sure they're in good working order and that they are installed in the correct places -- just outside the bedroom doors and in the kitchen Many experts believe that if smoke detec­ tors were installed in every home in America, we would not have a single death by f i r e i n t h . e h o m e .

C h r i s t m a s T r e e s T h a i K e e p M e m o r i e s A l i v e When it comes to making Christmas memories that last for years and years, there s nothing quite like a living Christmas tree indoors for the holidays, then outdoors after­ wards. The beauty and fra­ grance of the live evrt-green in the home adds V4vspecial di­ mension to the holidays, then moved outside it lives on as an investment that grows. Some sugges- tions from the "Green Survival" peo­ ple i n the American As­ sociation of Nursery men can help assure your pleasure from this year's iiving Christmas tree. Plan to keep the tree inside about a week or ten days. Any longer than that and the evergreen begins to think it's spring and starts to make changes that will be harmful when it goes out in the yard. Keep the root ball quite moist during the indoor time. About a quart of water every couple of days should do it. Plant the tree as soon as you take it outside. In fact, it's smart to prepare the hole ahead of time to avoid any planting problems the weather might create when the holiday is over. Cover the hole, of course, so nobody will stumble into it in the meantime. The nursery where you select your tree can give you planting advice if you need it.
