An appeals court decision to
end a nationwide ban on for-
maldehyde insulation even

criticism from a consumers
group but praise from in-
dustry officials.
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court
of Appeals on Friday struck
down an April 1982 rule of the
Consumer Product Safety
Commission prohibiting use
of the insulation in homes and
schools.
A three-judge panel said
the commission failed to link

both homeowners and apart-
moot dwellers.
Thore are reputable com-
panies that sell fire safety
devices for the home, but there
are also companies that use
high pressure sales pitches to
play on the emotions of
homoowners and apartment
dwellers to get thorn to buy
very ex pensive and possibly
worthless or less-than-efficient
fire protection systems for the
home
A typical sales tactic is to
send a card through the mail
offering a free fire safety in-
spection for the home or for a
salesperson to make an initial
phone call to set up an ap-
pointment to come to the
home Once the salesperson is
in the home, he might take a
cursory look around the house
and declare that the house is
like a matchbox, ready to go
up in flames at any time.
If the homeowner already
has smoke detectors, the
salesman might say that
smoke detectors alone will not
do the job end that depart
ment store smoke detectors
are worthless He might say
that there needs to be a coor-
dinated system covering the
entire house, which of course,
his company offers
The salesman might then
give a demonstration of how
smoke is not the biggest
culprit of fire deaths, but
rather the heat He might also
point to appliances such as
televisions, and say how ap
pliances are one of the major
causes of fires
in describing the system he
sells, the salesman often will
show metal heat detectors
which he will claim will not
melt in a fire, making them
more desirable than units
bought at department stores.
He might say that the
homeowner needs a detector in
every room for adequate pro-
tection and that there should
be mostly heat detectors and
only one or two smoke detec
tors
Both the National Fire Pro-
tection Association (NFPAI
and local fire departments
around the state are concerned

some 27,000 fewer parts than
the one it will replace is being

The new engine fits the

■ The big changes are on
the inside,” explains Robert

ecutive. They result from the
use of a combination of ad-
vanced aerodynamic design
and superalloys. The engine
also has a fully computerized
control system, he says.

ANGELS, ANGELS, ANGELS--
EVERTWHRE
Suddenly, the angel was joined by a vast host of
others-the armies of heaven--praising God:
"Glory to God in the highest heaven," they sang,
"and peace on earth for all those pleasing Him."
When this great army of angels had returned
again to heaven, the shepherds said to each other,
"Come on! Let's go to Bethlehem! Let’s see this
wonderful thing that has happened, which the Lord
has told us about.”
They ran to the village and found their way to
Mary and Joseph. And there was the baby, lying in
a manger
The shepherds told everyone what had happened
and what the angel had said to them about this
child.
All who heard the shepherds’ story expressed
astonishment, but Mary quietly treasured these
things in her heart and often thought about them
Then the shepherds went back again to their
flocks, praising God for the visit of the angels, and
because they had seen the child, just as the angel
has told them
Eight days later, at the baby's circumcision
ceremony. He was named Jesus, the name given
Him by the angel before He was even conceived.
When the time came for Mary's purification
offering at the Temple, as required by the laws of
Moses after the birth of a child. His parents took
Him to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord: for in
these laws God had said, "If a woman’s first child is
a boy, he shall be dedicated to the Lord."
At that time Jesus’ parents also offered their
sacrifice for punfication--"either a pair of
turtledoves or two young pigeons" was the legal
requirement.

people that they should crouch

instead of smoke is the biggest
cauee of fire deaths NFPA
recommends crawling in a fire,
and their statistics verify that
smoke inhalation is a larger

heat
Other misrepresentations
that some of these companies
make are:
1 Appliances are the big-
gest cause of home
fires FALSE NFPA says
that cigarettes are the biggest
cause of home fires
2. Smoke detectors cannot
do an adequate job of fire
detection Heat detectors are
what is really needed FALSE.
NFPA says that, for max-
imum protection, heat detec-
tors in the garage, attic and
kitchen, along with smoke
detectors on each level of the
house and in each bedroom,
are a good idea The local fire
departments recommend,
though, that if a homeowner
can not afford this maximum
protection coverage, there are
certain areas of the home that
can be covered with smoke
detectors which will give ade-
quate coverage

FALSE If the smoke detec-
tor is working, the department
store-type is as good as the
type installed at a much
higher coot Whichever brand
is chosen, it is a good idea to
make sure that the smoke
detector is UL listed
As a wise consumer, if you
are solicited by a company
wanting to install fire alarms,
it is a good idea to check the
reputability of the company
with your nearest Better
Business Bureau or fire
department. If you want to
know how to best protect your
home, your local fire depart
ment can give you unbiased in-
formation about the number
and placement of fire detec
tion devices in your home
If you do decide to buy a fire
protection system, you should
also know that, if you sign a
contract in your home for over
$25.00, you have the nght to
cancel in writing within three
business days from the sign
ing of the contract
