Directly this alarm is given, the
hotel clerk, by merely moving lever,
closes every door leading to the stairs
and elevator enclosures and thus pre-
vents draughts from carrying the
smoke and flames TO any other part of
the building. The boiling of the
ammonia in the thermostat not only
indicates the whereabouts of the fire
on the signal board in the main Office,
hrilt also rings gong in an elevator
in the engine room. This elevator is
used to carry corps of ten specially
drilled fire employees to the floor from
which the alarm comes. As an appa-
ratus stands always 'ady for instant
use in one of the city's fire engine
houses, so this elevator is always at
the disposition of the fire Squad. Its
use for any purpose except the an.
swering of alarms of fire is forbidden
The men who rush to ii when the gong
rings are all employed in the engine
room and take their orders from fire
captain. They are provided. of
course. with fire extinguishers. axes.
and hooks. Coupled to the stand
pipes on every floor are the lines of
hose, ready for use. and here new
wrinkle is found. The hose is NJ
longer wound upon reels but is looped
from a rod in such manner that it
may be brought into plar in the quick

Oh. not in all this world, so wide.
Is there a man more blessed than /.
And when the day is done, and night
Brings sweet release from toll and
care,
find home full of fresh delight
That they have brought for me to
share.
They get my slippers and they fan
Upon my neck with shouts of glee,
And am well repaid for all
The care and cost they are to me.
Envoy.
oh, life Is joyful. sweet, sublime,
When Christmas just beyond us lies
The spirit of the sacred time
Uplifts us half way to the skies.
S. f. Kiser.
