Purpose Of ExcursI o ~.

The trade excursions, as explained
in yesterdays Gate City, are planned
to generate and increase the spirit Of
friendliness between Keol1uk and her
neighbors, to advertise Keokuk among
the surrounding towns and their ter
ritories, as well as to advertise the in
dfvidual retail and wholesale houses
Of this city.
The excursions can be made at
little or no cost. 1t is expected that
enough automobile owners Will volun--
teer the use of their cars to carry
four or five hundred people on each
trip. 1t is not at all necessary that
the cars be filled exclusively with
business men, The excursions can be
made pleasure trips as well as not
and the whole family can be taken
along, as the primary purpose Of the
excursions Is that Of fostering the
good fellowship feeling between Keo-
kuk and her neighbors.
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1914-07-31
Suggestions are Wanted.

It is planned to carry some kind of
entertainment feature on the trips.
Several suggestions already have been
made by those who have talked to
Mr.. Justice, originator of the idea.
One Of these Is to take spell bind
err" along and have him make a short
talk when the place Of destination has
been reached. Musical entertainments
of various kinds have also been sug-
gested. If you can think Of anything
along THE line let Mr. Justice or MT.
Fulton know Of it.
OF course the cars all will be deco
rated in appropriate fashion and this
can be done at very little cost. All
the cars will travel together, arriving
at the fair in a body. AS there re-
mains but few days to prepare for
the first trip it is hoped that everyone
who is at all interested will come for
ward with their suggestions and volun-
teer the use of their machin es.

ADAMSON TO END

day-Engineer Suggests
Use of an Axe.

official recognition will be given TO the
danger Of fire in many Of the public school
buildings this afternoon, when Fire Com
missioner Adamson. in conference with c.
B. J. Snyder. superintendent of buildings
Of the Department Of Education, will dis
cuss the best way OF removing the fire
hazards.
Although denial Of the statements OF
Charles G. Armstrong, consulting engi-
neer. that the schools were fire traps was
made by several officials yesterday 1t Is
known that for two years notices of vio-
lations Of fire regulations. served by the
Fire Department. have been disregarded.
This was admitted yesterday by Frank d.
Wilecy, chairman Of the committee on
buildings Of the Board Of Education.
at the time the orders were issued.
he said, Eve made a careful survey OF the
cost of doing everything that the Fire De-
partment wished. The cost would have
been 100000 and when we asked the

Board Of Estimate for the money we were
refused"
Commissioner Adamson refused to make
public the nature Of the 600 violations
served since 1912. saying that he did not
wish TO cause unnecessary alarm.
"Mr. Snyder and I will take the matter
UP on Thursday afternoon" he said, and
decide whether or not the violations are
such that they should be remedied, or are
merely technical. If we determine that
serious risks exist. will ask the Board
Of Estimate and the Board Of Education
for concerted action with this department
to do away with the danger"
Mr.. Armstrong, who first called official
attention TO the dangers in July 1912, re-
peated his assertion yesterday that the
changes could be made without extreme
cost. In most instances, he said, the
dangers could be removed with an axe.
"Our school buildings" he said cost
a great deal more than schools in other
cities and are no safer For instance, the
cost per cubic foot OF school building in
Chicago, exclusive Of real estate, Is IA
cents; Cleveland, 1894 cents; throughput
New York state, 1903 cents. and New
