Fire Prevention Day Tomorrow.
(Burlineton News.l

Saturday of this week, Oct. 8, is the
date of Fire Prevention day. There
certainly is need of waking up to the
Importance of the matter. The nation
al organization which is trying to bring
about better conditions tells us that it
is time we disabused our minds of the
idea that the burning of a neighbor S
house is of no economic Importance to
us. The cost of maintaining our fire
department, added to the waste result
ing from fire destruction means a real
outlay to every man, woman and child
in the country. This cost to the aver
age family of five has been figured at
$50 per year. Every article we buy car
ries in its selling price a fractional in
crease for insurance tax is added. If
we look to our fire hazards and each OF
us strive for greater safety we viii
pave the way for an appreciable reduc
| ton in the cost of our living.
| But more than all that, the toll OF
fires in the United States is % dead oil
wounded every day. Then add to thi.
loss in human lives the price of The
ware destroyed. More than a million
dollars a day thrown to the waste OF
our fires. From the little dress tn,
baby had on when playing with thu
matches, to the great eonflagration tina
made homeless half a town; they al
figure in the burden of our financia
tribute to fire.
A total yearly waste through thi
one channel of the price of the Panama
canal, plus one-hundred-twenty -fve-mil
lion other dollars. Or as governmen
experts have expressed it: The build
ings we give to fire each u months ar
sufficient to line road from New YorI
to Chicago, with every thousand fee
the scene of an injury by fire and ever
ithree-quarters Of mile the scene Of
death by fire.

A favorite text with many of the
old-time ministers was she hath done
what she could 1t might be revived
effectively in giving Mary Ann Gam
bic of Montpelier the recognition which
she deserves. Rockefeller with his
foundations, Carnegie with his libraries
and the philanthropists who have scat
tered a part of their millions for the
public good, are not in the same class
with this 'seamstress of IS, who has
given 5000 in cash to the Montpelier
Home for the Aged. When the state
ment is made that Miss Gamble S earn
ings never exceeded SIS a week, and
that her benefaction represented the
entire saving of a lifetime, the quality
of her gift is apparent. 1t is in the
same class with the widow s mite.

The Barton Monitor has discovered a
reason why big purses fail to produce
large fields and extra heats in the
track events at fall fairs. At the
earlier races the horsemen have found
about what the different animals can
do and those which do not look good
for a part of the money drop out. The
Barton fair is held in the middle of
August, and this year it had a field of
20 horses. Most of the races went to
extra heats, there were 10 starters in
one event and from six to ten in all
of the other classes. The explanation
may be all right, but it does not soll G
the problem for Rutland, White River
Junction and Brattleboro. 1t might be
IA novelty next year to try one handi-
cap race each day.

Pawlet, the great slate producing
center of Vermont, is so near the New
York state boundary that it is not well
known to people of this state, but it
now comes into the Hmelight in such a
way that it Will have an opportunity
to become a Mecca for automobihsts.
The supreme court has sustained the
will of Fayette Potter, who left the
residue of his estate to found fund
for road and bridge maintenance in
Pawlet. The town will receive about
$4,000, and the interest on this sum,
added to reasonable amount raised by
the town, ought to give Pawlet the best
roads of any town in the state.

Soon after breakfast he announced that at
the coming general election in his home

4 little later he gave out program of de
Tense that necessarily takes away one point

abolished And over his coffee at dinner
he announced his engagement to Mrs Calf.

The New York Evening Post is much
impressed with the suffrage declaration of
President Wilson. 1t says: Say what
one will, it is notable event when the
President of the United States gives his
adhesion to this cause. And the fact that
he has taken a long time to make up his
mind lends weight to the arguments to
which he has at last yielded. Politically,
Mr.. Wilson's action will plainly save him
annoyance and embarrassment. His oppo-
aition is now put beyond question; and
to bother him further, as respects this is

Just what sort of a structure will he
put up on the site of the Judge and Ray
buildings is question that bids fair
to remain unsettled for a time al
least. At present there is no great local
demand for offices and large stores, and
while quarters similar to those in the
old buildings would probably rent readi-
ly it is doubtful whether new block
could be built at a figure low enough to
make such rents profitable from the in
vestment point of view. In any case
it is to be hoped that the building
which is erected will not only add to
the appearance of the town S business
district, but will lessen the fire hazard
which has existed so long in this par
ticular locality.
