Last summer, an Ottawa man was enjoying the evening with his family. He h ad planned a typical barbecue menu. The coals started a- right, but didn't sceem to heat Up fast enough for hîm. lmpatiently, he ignoîed the warning on the starter fluid can and gave the small fire an extra squirt. Some of the burning vapor was drawri back into the can. The resuit- ing explosion drenched him in flamnes. He died five days later. This, past spring, two Toronto men died in their cabin after barbecuing steak indoors. The burnîng char- coal filled the' cabin with deadly carbon monoxide. Both men feu ll, and lay down to sleep it off. They neyer recovered. These two tradegies serve as graphie illustrations. When using barbecue starter fluid, follow the instructions on the can. Keep children and pets away from the fire. Neve.r bring the barbecue or hibachi indoors. Be sure you are never down-wind from the fire when cooking - -a spark or flare-up could ignite your clothing. FolIow the Ontario Safety League's advice and keep summer cook-outs fun and sa fe. through nmost wind stormis, if the peak is supported by securing it to a rope tied between two trees. * Camp fires wvill notL harr your camipsite or dhe sur- rounding environmient, Mien they are properly trenched and the fire is extinguished after use. * Bears and racoons will not disturb your nighit's sleep, if you store Uthe food in tlic truck of your car.
