They can work out a plan of action to meet fire emergencies so that every member:of the household will know what to do when fire breaks out. More people are killed by smoke and poisonous fumes given.off by fire than by actual flames, Many fires occur at night and by the time you are aware of them they will have gained a strong foothold. If you awaken to the smell of smoke and the sound of fire, do not rush out into the hall, Feel the door first. If it is hot do not attempt to open it as the hail is probably full of fire that will burst in. Brace the door as firmly as possible, If you are able to do so, throw water on it to keep it cool. Open your window and attempt to attract attention and assist- ance from outside. Never jump unless it is absolutely impossible to wait. for the firemen to take you down with ladders, The wait may be long, but the average city fire department is on the job within minutes of an alarm, Deadly smoke and gases as well as actual flames tend to rise. Open stair- ways and open doors assist their progress. As a result, upper floors are usually the most dangerous. Investigation has shown that people are overcome much more quickly while sleeping on upper floors than those sleeping on ground floors, Don't give a fire a place to start, But if one does come, use your head and vot probably save it.
