RESOLUTION.
Adopted by the State Beard Of EduCa'
ton, March 81, 1908.

"Whereas, the danger of loss Of
life by fire is ever present In all oul
public schools, now, therefore, be it
resolved:
"Section 1. That it is the sense
of this board that IN any and all
public school buildings in this
State, it is the imperative duty of
trustees, or others charged with the
construction of such buildings, to
make such adequate provisions for
the escape of the pupils and teachers
therefrem in case of fire, as will coy
er any and all contingencies that
may arise, and this board recon-.
mends that all doors of entrance and
exit to such buildings, as we'll as
doors to Railways and class rooms,
be made to open outwards, and that
ample fire escapes from any upper
story of any such school building be
permanently attached thereto and
made part thereof.
"Section 2. That in all public
buildings now in use in this State,
not equipped with the safeguards
against loss of life by fire, as set out
in section l hereof, that 1T is the i'm
perative duty Of the trustees of such
schools to provide such safeguards
without delay.
Section 8. That this board furth.
er recommends that fire drills be
practiced at least once a month in
all of our schools and that the teach.
ers and spuerintendents of said
schools be requested to carry out
this recommendation.
"Section 4. That copies of this
resolution be sent to the various city
and county superintendent of edu.
cation of this State for distribution
among the trustees of the various
schools Of the State"

think of Kodol, for it is without

And that Is what you need when

ed along.
We still had % miles Of tide
water to travel on and soon
passed the "Big Whirl" which
is quite a curiosity, the river be,
ing about about one hundred
yards wide and quite swift at
that place, running square
against a high rocky bluff, turn
ing the current back and con.
stant whirling around, causing
drift.wood, logs, pieces of old
fiat boats to whirI around and
around until strong wind forces
the drifts on to the running
stream at the upper side of the
whirl, and if it happens to miss
the whirl at the lower side it
goes on down the river, but
when there is low water in the
river and does not back the tide
down the drifts may come back.
on the next food tide unless
there is a wind blowing down
the stream which holds it back
We made good time through
out tie day and camped at Nc
ConncII's landing, making SO
miles that days run ofll hours.
We could have made several
miles more, but that was a nice
camping ground so We agreed
to stop. finding a nice shed to
sleep under. We spent a nice
night and met a Mr. McClary
and another friend who rode
with us up to theLower bridge a
distance of r. miles.
We came near meeting with
an accident up above the Lower
bridge. The boat was going at
lively speed when We came in
contact with something like
telegraph wire someone had
stretched across the river about
on a level with the water. We
just had time enough to fall fiat
in the boat. How the wire got
over with out hanging to some.
thing is a mystery. 1t got hitch
ed to something in the front of
the boat and came back like a
string from a tight bow and for
a quarter of a second thought
/ would be dragged out over the
stern as l was on that end of
the boat steering. We all made
a narrow escape and I would be
glad if you would mention the
unlawfulness of persons plac.
ing such an obstruction across
the river, especially in such a
swift running current as that is
at that place. l suppose the
boat passed over the wire going
down, as the river was much
higher at that time, or some OF
US would have been hurt.
Well, we made the run from
McConnell's landing to Kings.
tree in 4 hours, a distance of
80 miles. The actual running
time from Georgetown to Kings
tree, 16O miles. in % hours.
Continued next week.
