GASOLINE


Nc gasoline lighting system should
be installed except after it has been
thoroughly examined by the fire chief
or some competent officer, and in no

ed by this Office or the National
Board Of Underwriters. The tank

the outside Of the building, and in no
case should they be higher than the

ATTENTION NECESSARY.

The mere installation of safeguards
will not necessarily prevent accidents.
See to it that the machinery is never
operated without the safeguards being
in place.
Remember that while you are hired
to do some particular work, the safety
of yourself and your fellow employee
is more important thar hat work.
A dangerous man is one who works
with no thought Of consequences to
others.
Even the people who always seem
TO know just what to do, sometimes
forget TO do it.
There Is a vast difference between
falling for a thing and tumbling to it.
It is better to be afraid of danger
than to shake hands with danger.

BUILDING ASSOCIATIONS.

The funds of these associations are
only On frst-mortgage security,
which loans are repayable in small
periodical installments, either week
~, monthly, or semi-annually, as may
be agreed on when the loan is made.
These periodical payments are Of a
sum sufficient to pay all accrued in
terest and a small balance to apply on
the debt. The 1oan continues without
renewal until these periodical pay
ments have paid off the debt in full.
These loans may be made to run for a
term of ten to fifteen years, as may
be agreed on. The right is always re-
served to the borrower to make pay
ments of larger sums in any amount
at n time, and to pay off his loan in
full at any time.

SMOKING AND r
PRECAUTIONS.

Every readily admits that to
smoke in garages, in bed, or around
stables and other places where In
fammable material is present, is to
deliberately invite disaster. Yet just

as evidenced by the almost daily re-
ports of fires from this cause in such.
