Lopez that applier Prevention's play in the auditorium hey that sounds interesting I'm off duty now to care to walk home way to tell me all about departmental okay Jim if the meet play Fire Prevention is important subject the Kilmartin 500 boys and girls about your age lost their lives in house fires last year yeah that's why miss Lopez has make it it's like old school I think that's a good idea we learned that fires have just three things to get started one something to burn that's the fuel to oxygen which comes from the air and three heat take any one of them away and there's no fire there's nothing we can do about the oxygen because air is everywhere but getting rid of the fuel would be a good start in fact my talk was cleaning up the garage Saturday yeah we need a poster ha ha ha his garage sure was a mess you're home free when you're still free yes a clean house is a good way to prevent fires no fuel no fire very good we learned the kids playing with matches and grown up smoking cigarettes carelessly caused more house fires been anything else stuff yes lots of fires are caused by carelessness at home and electrical fire you dangerous too they sure are overloaded circuits and frayed wires cause fires well here's your house I'm tinkling these more often here man your fire meant to display sounds great mom ma come on oh yeah mom's over at Aunt Mary impound whoo my basketball games for makes you hungry coming up [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] whoo that was a close in haryana you were lucky this time Kevin fire safety is one area where being alert really pays off you made that flame way too high and you left the paper on dough if you were aware of that danger you could have avoided it you know something as simple as the can of baking soda spread on that fire way of giving you precious moments to think you're right tasty woman do you know the danger Dodger salute Kevin aware alert alive that's right now let's review what's meant by the danger Dodger motto being aware I mean knowing the dangers that surround us and being alert involved planning ahead to avoid those dangers knowing what to do is what keeps us alive getting an early warning can save lives many people use smoke detectors in their homes to warn them of a fire before it has a chance to spread and that's an excellent idea but knowing what to do after the alarm has sounded is even more important phone immediately and have the fire emergency number takes right to your telephone always sleep with a flashlight near at hand in case of a power failure I know several ways together and a house fires blocking the door good for you Kevin you know that should be part of every family's fire survival plan along with regular home fire drills to make sure that that plan is a good one if Kevin this fire escape plan is something you can share with the other members of your danger Dodger club yeah go myself I see your diagram shows all the main and secondary exit and besides fire prevention you can practice safety in other ways right now Tommy is taking the door off his old refrigerator this was a lot of work but sure is worth it don't want any little kid getting stuck inside and suffocating Whittle dad gets home for work and sees a good job I've done better put dad's tools away [Applause] Oh God yeah emergency I must go Kevin danger doctor I salute you aware alert oh my [Music] Gardi honor the goodwill AMI the one thing everyone needs to know about guns is this every gun is a loaded gun six hundred people of your age died last year from bullets in guns that they thought were empty for that reason guns are never to be played with not ever all that should be safely locked away I'm sorry go deal I know time but if we're not alert to dangerous things like a gun how are we going to avoid the more innocent looking things around our home that can harm us almost as much Troy's certainly don't look as deadly as a gun but less scattered around on a flight of stairs they can be dressed as dangerous Falls are the most common cause of home injuries be sure that hallways and stairwells are well lighted Tommy hundreds of boys and girls are badly injured every year in Falls around the house while it could be avoided picking up your own playthings and helping a younger brother sister to pick up theirs can save a life that life could be your own or that is someone you love golly we need to make our homes fall proof by cleaning up slippery spills immediately a wet floor or a slippery tub is a real hazard Tommy to prevent Falls be sure to use non-skid material for surer footing and step out onto a dry area Falls while reaching are especially dangerous just last week first down Harry tried to hang a plant have your room to reach the hook she had to use his stepladder but the one she chose is a little too short she should have used that tall sturdy ladder [Music] [Music] well you're probably going to be careful all the time George Guardian yeah but I can't be everywhere at once see though they're killers too they weren't meant to be the labels even warn you at the harm they can do medicines cleaning products and paints to be stored on high shelves well out of the reach of small children we all need to learn to read labels more carefully Tommy looking for key words like danger caution or poison and alert us to possible harm and if a poison or harmful substance is swallowed call your doctor immediately after start reading labels haryana right Tommy exactly right labels are important but appliances don't have labels to warn us of electrical shock always get permission from your parents before using any electrical tool or appliance and as a safety precaution always stand in a dry place when touching anything electrical old worn wiring can cause severe electrical shock of fires it should be repaired or replaced you can protect small children by covering electrical outlets for safety caps I won't forget what you've taught 61 danger Dodger I salute you Wow [Music] [Music]
