FIRE ESCAPES IN THE SCHOOLS.
Board of Education win Consider
Them Tonight


Definite action relative to the erec-
ton of fire escapes in connection with
the municipal schools will be taken at
the regular monthly meeting of the
board of education which will be held
tonight in the high school building.
Following notification from the assist
ant fire marshal it will be necessary to
provide fire escapes for every school
building two or more stories high in
the municipality.
Although no estimate of the cost is
now in the hands of the building COM
mittee an inspection which has been
made has wrought the determination
that two and three fire escapes must
be erected on every building not now
equipped with this necessary fixture.
The total number to be equipped is
sixteen. Bids will be asked for the
work tonight, after the regular bust
ness meeting.
In compliance with state laws it has
been found necessary to erect the fire
escapes and all obstructing doors and
furniture have been checked over by
the building inspector in accordance
with Kansas laws covering this re-
quirement. 1t will be necessary to
erect fire escapes on Quincy, Grant,
Mckinley, Madison, Garfield, Van
Buren,, Monroe, Topeka high school
buildings and manual training schools.
Fire escapes which will require re-
painting are those at the Lafayette,
Branner. Potwin, Harrison, Sumner
and State street schools, also two
schools on Clay street.

LOOK FOR 10 TROUSAN D
Boards Are Granting Holidays for
Teachers for Topeka Convention.

Practically all of the school boards
over the state of Kansas have granted
a two days holiday in their districts
in order that their teachers might
come to Topeka for the annual con-
vention of the teachers association
which is scheduled for November 4
and 5.
State superintendent E. T. Fairchild
stated this morning that this would
mean many more delegates to the
convention. 1t has been guessed that
4 900 would be here for the big meet
ing. If the school boards over the
state continue their free distribution
of holidays it means that probably
10000 visitors will come to this city
for the meetings and the work to be
conducted.
There are over 1900 school teach
ers in Kansas and every one of them
is anxious to come. In former years
the convention was held during vaca-
ton time and at that it was possible to
have a good attendance. This year
promises to be a record breaker in at
tendance. The program is the great
est ever compiled, the time of the
year could not be better, many of the
teachers can do their Christmas shop
ping and their winter buying at this
time and the plans for entertainment
are most elaborate.
"Oh, we are going to have a great
time" said Mr.. Fairchild and he pro-
ceeded to dictate another "booster''
letter to a backward board of educa-
ton.
