A tiny flame or spark - even from static electricity - will ignite gasolene vapor. Play safe! Use an approved fluid or take clothing to a dry cleaner. (2) Check Stoves and Heaters: Clean and check all heaters and have repair work done. Radiated heat from stovepipes, furnaces and stove will char beams or partitions too near them, causing a blaze that will damage or destroy the house. (3) Check Ash Receptacles: Always put hot ashes in metal containers. Hot ashes in wood boxes set fire to many houses, In the cellar this is particularly hazardous, because flame quickly spreads up through hollow walls of buildings. 0-0-0 LONGLAC CENTURY CLUB (Membership restricted to units having not less than 100 safe days without an on-duty disabling lost-time accident.)

This mishap ended a 497 safe day run for the unit and gave the Pulp Department its first accident of the year. Both records were excellent and while starting at the bottom again may be disheartening let's not be discouraged, The are could have been much more serious than it turned out to be,
