As the great majority of accidents on the national holiday claim children for victims, a large number of the warnings of Director Krusen emphasize the need of keeping explosives out of the hands of juveniles. Dealers in fireworks and firearms are warned not to sell forbidden articles to children. The laws prohibiting, such sales will be rigidly enforced and anv person guilty of evading or breaking the laws will be prosecuted, Director Krusen asserted The full list of "don'ts" issued bv Director Krus-en follows: Don'ts for the Fourth "Don't use fireworks, pistols or ex-plcsives of any kind within one square of any hospital or other institution for the care of sick or miued persons, or of any dwellinar where serious sickness exists. ''Don't forget that the nuisance created by unnecessary noises applies to the Fourth of July as well as to anv other time.

"Don't sell or use toy cartridge pistols, toy cannons rr devil bombs. The police have been instructed to suppress them. They caused most of the serious injuries reported last year. "Don't sell or use fireworks containing picric acid, picrates, dynamite or other highly explosive compounds. They are dangerous to life and limb and their sale or is prohibited by law.

"Don't spII or use blank cartridge pellets or other tablets containing dynamite or other hizhlv explosive compound. Their use in pistols, hollow canes or any toy for explosive purposes is prohibited by law. "Don't let the children have anv kind of fireworks in their possession. Small firecrackers have large potential dangers. The supposedly harmless sparklers and lighted punk have caused fires that resulted in lis of life and property.

Responsibilities of Parents. "Don't forget to teach the children that fireworks are dangerous: play toys. "Don't set a poor example for your children by shooting off fireworks' for their amusement. A serious injury mav permanently disable the careless parent and thus deprive his dependents of their only means of support. "Don't let others bring fireworks- into your home.

If your neighbors persist in the use of aerial display in the form 4 of sky rockets, Homan candles and fountains, it will be safer to close the windows and thus guard acainst the dancer of dying sparks. "Don't raise tov balloons. They are readi'y set on tire and often fall on place? distant from their origin of ascent, and in this way mav be a serious menace to the safety of valuable property "Don't have Japanese lanterns and Other lighted decorations near inflam-nfcible material, or fail to keep a close watch on them during the period in which tliev are lighted.
