new FIRE ALARM
Minds QUICK HEAT
1t Pays No Attention to a
Gradual Rise in Tens-
perature.

A fire alarm which discriminates be-
tween ordinary heat and any fire that
may start and another whirh makes
more racket the hotter the fire is are
two additions to the great number
of recent automatic fire alarms. The
discriminating alarm Is based on the
theory that a dangerous fire will
cause q sudden rise in temperature
lin a room, but that ordinary tenn
perature changes due to heating sys-
TENS or to the weather are slow.
The new alarm pays attention only
to the sudden change.
One thick glass tube and one thin
glass tube contain liquids that will
vaporize and make pressure in the
tubes when they are heated, and the
alarm will ring when the pressure in
the thin tube Is greater than In the
other
With a slow increase of heat the
LIQUID in both tubes vaporizes at
about the same rate, but with sud
den heat the thin tube acts more
promptly.
The other fire alarm is based ON the
electric resistance of a metal 1t can
be dropped by cord into ships
hold, for instance. and If there is heat
there it will ring gently or vigorously.

NEGRO HEALTH
CONDITIONS.

Betterment of health conbi
tons among negroes will be the
su bject Of q conference TO be held
in New Orleans, April "a 20, 1914
The call was issued by the Lou
isiana State Board of Health,
The purpose in view is TO have
health aud educational authorities
of the Southern States agree upon
plan of concerted action.
Every person living in the
south knows that the death and
morbidity of rates of the whites
are not higher than IN other sec
tons Records of small areas
where accurate statistics are now
gathered are proof. The rates
among the negroes are high and
these joined with those of the
whites make the per cent abnor-
malIy large. An erroneous in
preston of health conditions
throughout the South is the re-
suit.
Sickness among negroes is the
consequence of ignorance. The
maj orlty do not observe the SIM
p!est rules Of hygiene; they help
TO spread Infection by prejudice
against preventive measures and
by the custom Of prOmiscuous Wis
iting of the sick. Housing cOndi-
tions among them are bad; this,
probably, Is the greatest of all the
problems Involved.
The remedy IS threefold, TO in
struct the neg Oes in the primary
principles of PEI sonal hygiene, to
make better housing a civic res.
possibility and to enforce rigidly
sanitary rules which relate to
eanliness, spread of contagion,
&c
Tuberculosis, so commol among
negroes, gives point of attack.
In Its control, the essentials are
fresh air, cleanliness Of surround
ing and obedience to instructions
by the patient and those who
come in contact. While teaching
and enforcing means of proven
ton of tuberculosis, application to
general conditions will be posi-
ble and effective.
BetteIment can not be hoped
for until definite and systematized
effort is made. 1t is timely to be-
gin now.
Every health officer and educa-
tiOnal official is urged to attend.
Negro organizations, fraternaI,
health and ,duca i0nal, are invited
to send representatives.
On April Goth conference of
State Health and Fiscal authOri.
