A home safety program promotes voluntary fire inspections by firefighters who visit homes, assess hazards, and provide private written reports. No cost or disclosure of name, and inspections occur under municipal programs to reduce fire risk and improve household safety.
A published pledge urges citizens to reduce home fire risk by daily hazard removal, safe smoking, proper disposal of ashes, regular inspection of heating spills and chimneys, metal containers for coals, asbestos and metal protection near woodwork, non repair by non electricians, and avoiding improvised fuses. It frames fire prevention as a year round civic duty to save lives and property.
A reflective column argues that signs of a forthcoming boom may prompt prudent buying of essentials. It cautions that government spending could drive inflation harming pensioners and fixed incomes, while a surge could lift some while leaving others behind and nudges labor leaders toward action.
The text discusses wage demands outpacing productivity, risking eroding a boom and deeper depressions. It notes strong economic energy and potential for progress in the 60s, but warns war threats could spoil opportunities. It references Mr. K criticized by Pinkos for bomb testing and world terrorism threats.
In memory of our wife and mother Mrs Edward Johnstone who died September 26 1960. Just a thought of sweet remembrance, a memory fond and true, a token of affection with a heartache still for you. Ever remembered by her husband and family.
