CLAN FOUNDRY FIRE PRECAUTIONS.

The important necessity for increased numbers of fire watchers has already been emphasised by broadcasts and statements in the daily press. We have been warned that in addition to the existing fire patrols that are carried out by the Home Guard, we may be called upon to provide further fire watchers.

Will those who are prepared to volunteer for this work, please sign below. If they have already volunteered for such work at their homes, they should denote the fact by an asterisk, as when the fire precaution scheme is fully organised, their services will be allocated where there is the greatest need.
