OCT. 9 FIRE PREVENTION DAY
Governor Ammons Asks Aid Of Every
Citizen In Reducing Annual Loss
Due to Negligence.

Denver. = Governor Ammons has
designated Oct. Q as fire prevention"
day and, in a proclamation, called up
on all citizens to try to reduce losses
in Colorado by fire through removal of
materials which might cause fire and
by u careful examination of their
premises. His proclamation follows:
Proclamation.
"The losses by fire in this country,
OF insured and uninsured property, to-
tai every year more than $200,000,000.
and are largely in excess of that OF
any other civilized nation. This is
loss which can be curtailed by proper
precaution. The large payments by in
surance companies, as well as the
enormous personal loss of property
which is uninsured, is an expense
which should he decreased. The re-
duction of the fire loss would natural
ly tend to reduce the cost of insurance
and would thus be benefit to the
public.
TT is our duty as good citizens to
do all within our power to prevent
erty. and II is, therefore, the part of
wisdom to join with the people of
other states in setting aside day In
which we bring to public attention
this important duty
THE losses in Colorado by fire dur
ing the last year on which insurance
was paid were sl.O62.ss3. Inasmuch
as the cause of fire is frequently care
lessness. or failure to exercise due
precaution, call upon the citizens OF
Colorado to set aside Oct. .. 1914, as
day on which to give special atten-
ton to the removal from their prem
ises of all material which might cause
fire, for examination as to the safe
condition of heating appliances. which
are frequently the cause of fire losses.
to look carefully into premises where
articles, which might produce spon-
taneods combustion. are kept, and for
the destruction of ignitable material
deposited in places where 1t might en-
danger property by fire.
Il further recommend that on that
day instruction be given to the pupils
In public and private schools concern
ing the exercise OF care in the use of
matches and all combustible materials.
and that laborers in factories and other
places OF industry be duly cautioned
on this subject.
In witness whereof have hereun-
to set my hand and caused the great
seal of the state to be affixed at Den

and four months he acted as pastor
of that place. Soon after his arrival
at Hearne, a parsonage was built and
lots adjoining the church property
were bought. At Rockdale, one OF the
missions, a parish school was started
and taught by the Sisters of Divine
Providence. At Calvert, another mis-
sion attended from Hearne, lots were
bought and the pretty st. Mary's
Chapel erected thereon.
In March, 1904, Father Gleissner
was sent to Bryan, and he has worked
In this part of the Lords vineyard for
the last ten years, leading souls to
Christ and doing good wherever he
can. Father Gleissner succeeded In
paying off a heavy church debt and
making many much-needed repairs.
With the aid of the good sisters OF
villa Maria, Father Gleissner estab-
lished free parochial school, where
the Catholic youth receives instruction
in heavenly as well as worldly knowl-
edge. Father Gleissner has indeed
been father to those of his flock as
well as to every one of his friends.
He never shrinks from duty, but is
always busy seeking to lend a helping

took up his studies for this holy office
of the priesthood in Holland. In 1888

him into his. diocese. The bishop
granted his request and ordained him
July o. 1889. In st. Mary's Cathedral.
In Galveston. Father Glelssner was
happy and content as Texas mis-
slonary. and many are the souls that
he has led TO Christ in his twenty-five
years OF faithful service. and numer'
Gus are the acts OF kindness and
fatherly love he has bestowed upon
his flock and his friends. After
Father Gleissner was ordained. he was
appointed pastor OF Tours, McLennan

years and four months. Under his
administration a parish school wal
