One OF the particularly striking
things OF this time of stress and ex-

every human being for a newspaper.
The little midinettes who usually read
nothing but the serial story, the omni-
bus conductors, the finely dressed wo-
men in their llmousines, every one
reads every edition OF every paper.
Life is full OF abrupt changes for n
working continental nation where
mobilization can call out all types and
conditions OF men in less than a week.

on romantic aspect; for the con-
cierge Is an artillery man, find, and
has medal for being the best gun
layer IN his battery. The most obse-
1uious waiter at the Cafe de Paris
gives orders in the army instead OF
taking them And who could have i'm
agined that the nice young man who
mnrcels your hair is a cuirassier and
will perhaps be charging around with
cleaning breastplate and heavy

which he will treat heads.

TO-DAY FIRE PREVENTION DAY.

Gov. McCreary, in an official procla-
nation recently issued, designated to-
day, Friday, October 8, as Fire Pre-
vention Day." and calls upon all the
householders and occupants of bust
ness property in Kentucky to observe
the day by removing combustible ma
terial,S repairing fiues and remodeling
conditions and defects in their premis-
es, which might be the cause of ig-
milton or the spread of flames.
A careful survey of premises in this
city would reveal some very condi-
tons such as the proclamation issued
by Gov. McCreary seeks to eliminate.
Rubbish of all kinds is relegated to
cellars in some business houses, and
even in residences, where fire precau-
tions are most needed, rubbish is al
lowed to accumulate, which should
have been destroyed. Every precau-
ton possible should be taken to re-
duce the fire risk. Paris has been
extremely fortunate in respect to
fires, having had but one very serious
one in a long time, yet little care
lessness can be the cause of a confla-
grafton that would in short time
wipe out thousands of dollars worth
of property. A little prevention can
be the means of ececting a great saw
ing. One of the commOnest causes of
fires in the carelessness displayed in
leaving matches lying around loose
where mice and rats can get to them.
