5. STAY AWAY FROM
WINDOWS

Glass shatters easily, so stay away from windows.

Don’t go to windows and look out, in an air raid. It is a
dangerous thing, and helps the enemy. The Air Raid Warden
is out there watching for you. Again we say, get off the streets
if planes come over.

At night, there is danger of being caught in blast from explo-
Sives.

Antiaircraft fire means falling shrapnel. You are safe from
it indoors, away from windows. It’s more important to shell a
plane than it is to see it from a window.

Stay in your refuge room, away from windows. That is the
safest place. Go there at the first alarm; stay there until the
“all clear’’. |

Above all, keep calm. Stay home. Put out lights. Lie
down. Stay away from windows. Do not say we are re-
peating; we would rather repeat until we bore you than have
you forget.

You can do all those things without any special equipment
other than what you have now in your home.

You can help lick the Japs, with your bare hands, if you will |
do just those few, simple things.

Be a good fellow and follow instructions and keep well. Do
not be a wise guy and get hurt.
