  • November 22nd, 2011 WESTERN CAROLINIAN Page 4 -CAMPUS VIEWS Our Take Lets all have a safe Holiday Season The Western Carolinian staff would like to pass along to our readers a few tips from the U.S. Fire Administration and U.S. Department of Justice for making the holiday season a safe one. We'd like to hav you not only around, but intact when the big day arrives. Many of us will soon be out in the yard putting up those Christmas lights and other decorations. First, do not put indoor lights outdoors. Be sure anything you are putting up outside is meant to be there. Trying to put indoor lights outdoors is a recipe for a short circuit and possible fire. Inspect your lights first to make sure they are in good shape. Plug them in while you are indoors to make sure they are in working order. It's no fun going up a ladder to try to figure out which bulb is burned out when half or all of a string doesn't work. Be careful on your ladder. Do not overreach trying to string lights. It's better to have to get down, move the ladder and go back up than to fall off. - Do nottry to string lights outside, particularly if you are us- ing a ladder, when you are home alone. If you fall and no one is around, you could compound the injury or suffer frostbite. Speaking of frostbite, if it is really cold and/or snowing, bag the outdoor lighting project and wait for better weather. And use protective materials to cover up any extension cord con- nections. Moving indoors, never put a tree close to a fireplace. It's asking for trouble. ; If you prefer a real tree to the artificial-variety, make sure you cut the bottom so it can get water, then water it frequently. Tf it dries up and needles are brittle and falling off, you're in - trouble. roan _ Make sure your light wires are located where toddlers and pets cannot easily get to them. Do not tangle up a big mess _of extension cords and power strips either indoors or out. It's just asking for a fire. Also, leaving a bunch of lights on or _ decorative candles burning when you're not home is asking for trouble. Check to be sure smoke detectors and other alarms are in working order. Increased use of decorative lights, various cooking and baking projects and other holiday activities in- crease the risk for fires. When it comes to gifts, pay attention to the age labels on toys. As much as you'd like for your toddler or younger broth- er or sister to have an electric train or remote-control airplane, it's probably not a good idea. ~ When shopping, take a car with a trunk if you have one. If - not, cover your packages and conceal them as best you can. And keep a close eye on your wallet, cash and credit cards. If you shop online, beware of bogus sites. _ Have a safearid happyholiday season. ur Staff Justin Caudell, Editor-in-Chief 103 Old Student Union Cullowhee, North Carolina 28723 _jcaudell@westerncarolinian.com 828-227-2694 Ryan Alexander, Sports Editor Lauren Gray, Staff Writer Caleb Gray, Staff Writer Ryan Michaud, Staff Writer , Tyler Auffhammer, Staff Writer - Allison Adkins, Contributing Writer | Jared Gant, Contributing Writer Bayleigh Davis, Contributing Writer Katy Williams, Contributing Writer Jaled Ponton, Contributing Writer Asia Buss, Contributing Writer Carvan Craft, Contributing Writer David Myers, Designer Kalen Quinn, Photographer -Ceillie Simkiss, Photographer Jeffery Wilson, Cartoonist Cory Radosevic, Distribution The Western Carolinian P.0.
