FIRE DRILLS IN SCHOOLS.

Since the awful fire in the lroquo:a
theater in Chicago where six nun
dred lives were lost, a wave of fire
protection agitation has been sweep
ing the land from the Atlantic to the
Pacific and from the great lakes TO
the gulf of Mexico. This agitation TO
a limited extent has reached Ardmore,
and while we admit there is but little
danger attached 10 any of the school
buildings in our city, ew believe IL
would be an appreciated act for the
board Of directors to have such u
drill inaugurated in all the buildings
o. two or more stories high. Other
cities all over the land are taking up
the matter. In the News of yesterday
we notice that the Dallas board of
education will again take up the IRE
drills in the public school buildings
and it has been decided that this mat
ter will be presented to the board and
its next meeting and the request made
that the drills be re-establisned. In
many of the rooms, it Is stated, the
teachers have been wise enough to
give the children instructions as to
actions in case of fire, but the actual
drill has been missing for many
years.
About ten years ago the pupils in
The larger buildings were given fire
drills once week, sometimes oftener
and in other cities today the plan to
sound the alarm at unexpected times,
in order that the children and teach
ers may not expect it, and be lax in
the matter of responding.
The plan in The Dallas schools was
To have the children rise and march
quietly out at a given signal. In those
days. it is stated, the children in a
sreat many cases would not have
known while passing out in case OF
IRE that they were not merely going
through the regulation drill, and a
good many people in Dallas who have
children at the schools are seeking to
have this state of affairs resumed, and
it will, as stated be presented at
the next meeting of the boaru.

Very Desirable and Centrally Lo.
Gated Lot for Carnegie Library.
The Ardmoreite was informed to.
day by very reliable party, one VINO
has the good OF the city at heart that
the lot on which the Broadway Meth.
odist parsonage is located could be
secured at very reasonable figure,
provided the people should see ht TO
erect the Carnegie library thereon.
This lot adjoining the new Metho.
dist church on the south, is practically
as near central location as can be
obtained in the city, and Is only a
half block distant from Main street
and the United states court house.
II would be- in our judgment. an c..
coIlent location for such a building.
for library It Is away from al.
noise and is in a qu,et and respect.
able locality.
Taken from a sanitary standpoint
thIs location could scarcely be excel
ed by any It's proximity TO The wat

saving feature for the installation OF
baths in connection with the library

thing considered, this location will
bear investigation favorably when
