October is fire safety month. I only had a few pieces from our collection that I thought would look interesting in our display and a couple of posters, so I gathered several pamphlets that our area fire departments had available at the county and state fairs. I made matches out of papertowel tubes and stuffed the ends for the match heads. I used a smoke alarm from my home (It was broken, I had one that worked), and a Smokey the Bear with paper hat.
