A blown fuse is a warning! | | @ Don't have high wattage lamp | | bulbs near fancy inflammable orna- ments, synthetic materials, paper |or cotton. Watch out ‘about using candles too near draperies, wall pa- ‘ per or woodwork. I @ Don't plan to have a row of can- | dles too close to a mirror or the | | heat may crack it.

In the United States, seal sales began in 1907, Up to 1934, the sale of Christmas seals in the United States alone to- taled $75,000,000, all of which bhas been devoted to the control of tuber- eulosis, L P P PP SSRGS S U A Sincere Wish that You May Enjoya MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW % | | ; YEAR! | | z At this time, we want to express our heartfelt wishes for your Merry Christinas with a strong wish that the coming New Year will be oneof ex- tremely good fortune for you.
