ARMY POST FIRES.
Why They Are ~lnfrequent and the Way
They Are Handled.

They Are Handled.
Perhaps the low percentage of tires
In the army is directly due to the fact
that guard duty is never suspended.
In daylight and dark, during peace
or In time OF war, armed Ventries
walk their posts, scattered every where

while on guard is a serious offense.
Therefore the guards are always alert
Never Is a sentry mounted on a post
without a caution to look out for fires.
One Of the first charges in q guards

cautioned to keep Il sharp watch for

1t is not necessary that a man

not wait for antagonists in iull dress

fires procrastinate while tAe members
Of the department make careful toilets.
Once a week. sometimes Oftener. in
every military garrison, large or small.
throughout the cOuntry-and there are
several hundred at home and in orr
p~ossessions-a fire drill is held. Not
a soul save the commanding officer is
advised of what hour of the day or

fire call will be blown. AS fires do not

f|REMEN ARE To
MEET IN june

II. l.. Reade, secrtary of the North
Dakota Firemen's association an
nounces that the annual convention
Of the association will be held in Bis
marck on June 10, II and II.
These conventions are becoming
quite an important event, as the as
ISOLATION is growing each year and
many cities and towns in all direc.
tons bring large delegations. The
association is also becoming an i'm
portant affair as much good is accom-
plished by the work done during the
sessions. Bismarck will endeavor to
show the visiting fremen a first class
time, and it goes without saying that
the meet to be held here in June will
be a record breaker.
