while Hart, their fve-year-old
son, fred up the furnace. The
outside door and some windows
of the basement were open, and
this kept the smoke from going
upstairs. Ruth, keing interested
in some handwOrk, had not mo-
ticed the smoke until Mrs. Gaba,
who was writing a,letter, looked
up. Going to the back door to

from, they found the basement

the house, and Ruth turned in an
alarm. The fremen were only
two blocks away, and they saved
the building, although three back
rooms on the first floor and four
of the six rooms in the basement
were ruined, the woodwork being
reduced to charcoal. Charlie had

Better Take Heed.

There is an old saying that
God takes care of and looks af-
ter children and fools.
Are not the people of Baxter
Springs fools? Or are they mere
ly children who do not know how
to look after themselves!
There have been several hres
in Baxter Springs within the
past four or five years, and much
valuab BILE property has been des-
troyed. Much of the property
which has been destroyed could
have been saved if the city had
had FIRE plugs and a hose cart
full of hose.
When the block at the corner
of Sheridan and Military streets
was burned it was plainly evil
dent that a line of hose attached
to a fire plug would have drowned
out the fire.
When the sanitarium at the
corner of Council and Military
was discovered on fire it would
have been an easy matter to have
saved it with a hose and fire plug
When the Daniels building at
the corner of Military and River
streets was on fire a hose and
fire plug could have saved It.
The fire was not so far advanced
that it would not have given up
its fight very easily.
The fire last week was not so
far advanced when it was dis
covered that a line of hose at.
tached to a fire plug would not
have put it out.
Verify, it was a merciful God
who kept the whole block from
burning. 1t was the veriest luck
that the building had heavy and
solid walls, without openings in
them. An opening in the walls,
and the entire block would have
been a pile of ruins today.
How long is this state OF ale
fairs going to continue?
We all know that the water
plant has a we'll that is mex
haustible. We all know that 1t
would not be much of a trick to
lay a separate water line up the
alley on each side of the business
street, and put in b few fire plugs
enough to protect the heaviest
part of the tax paying property
of the town.
What iuducement, pray, IS
there for a man to put up a good
business house, when insurance
rates are high, and there is no
way of saving the property il a
fire should break out2
True, the little chemical en-
giueS are all right in a way, but
if a fire ever gets outside the
building of what avail are they
then? The volunteer fire BOYS
are the best in the country, but
they have very little to work with.
Besides fire plugs. the boTa
ought to have some laddsfa and
FIRE hooks. What would they be
able to do if II should prove nec-
essary seme time to tear down
some building TO stop the pro.
gress of a lrel
These matters should be rem
edied right away. There is no
telling who of as may be the
next to suffer.
