COMPULSORY EDUCATION
For the Prevention Of Fires to be
Legally Provided.

Complaints from many parents, that
the lessons provided for in the law
making instruction in Hre dangers
compulsory in Ohio, are not used, and
requests from teachers for the les
sons, makes desirable the publication
Of the following facts says State Fire
Marshall Rogers
The Reed law enacted last winter
provides that the State Fire Marshal
shall provide lesson on sre dangers
for each week of the maximum school
year; that the State School Commits
sioner shall have them printed and
shall distribute them one to each
teacher in public, private and paro-
chial schools in which are pupils be-
tween the ages of six and fourteen
years. Wilful neglect of a teacher
to use the lessons Is punishable by
fine of five to twenty dollars.
1t happened that the Reed bill did
not reach a vote until too late to get
into the general appropriation bill,
provision for the expense of sending
out the lessons. The cost of express
ing packages of books to 1900 clerks
of school boards Is considerable.
Therefore they we're sent to the 50
county auditors with request that
they be distributed. A result is that
many teachers at distance from the
county seat are not using the lessons.
The pamphlet sent out contains the
( l6 lessons needed for use before the
Christmas holiday. There being no
lessons of this sort in any language,
it seemed desirable that few lessons
be issued in cheap form, so that the
ideas of teachers as TO how the SUBJ
lects could best be presented might
be secured before printing them In
book form. The general expression
from teachers who have been using
them is that the form of presentation
is good and the children appreciate
the essentials of information given.
The "a additional lessons necessary
TO having one for each week of the
school year are now ready for the
printer.
So popular is this sort of education
that bills providing for 1t will be in
troduced in the legislatures of at least
four states this winter.

RIM. Goes Down

In a very pre- y game William and
Mary defeated Randolph-Macon at
basket ball on Friday night in the
college gymnasium by the decisive
score of fortynine to sixteen. The
game while somewhat one-sided was
nevertheless marked by some spec
tacular playing on both teams.
From the first William and Mary
had things her way but the boys
from Ashland never let up until the
whistle blew at the end of the sec
ono half.
The contest was very rough as cvi-
denced by thirty two fouls being
called by the referee. The team
