Christmas Tree Fire Warning From State Fire Marshal
Newman T. Miller the state fire marshal warns holiday revelers to exercise great caution with Christmas trees. He notes trees become torch like when decorated with resinous branches and paper ornaments. Candles require constant vigilance and trees should not be left unguarded. Keep water or extinguisher handy and prevent children from lighting candles. Do not use cotton snow and protect carpets from sparks with metal. Do not let trees stand after Christmas as needles dry and fire risk rises.
