The First Five Minutes of a Fire

Do you know what to do? It is often said that the first five minutes are worse than the next five hours. If you have ever seen a real fire 6tart you will know what this means. A pail of water or a hand extinguisher may be sufficient to quence a fire just beginning. After it gains headway, the entire fire department may be helpless while the building is consumed. A fire breaks out. You must act quickly. You must keep your head. You would be far better off if you knew definitely what to do, because there is no time for pondering and wondering. Action springing from
knowledge may save many lives and
many dollars.
You can learn a tremendous lot
about this vital thing from a 94-page booklet prepared by the National Board of Fire Underwriters.
