.HOACLAND RELATES
SPRINkLERS VALUE
AS fire PROTECTION

To prove that fireproof construction
is not the best safeguard against pos
sible conflagrations. l. q. Hoagland of
New York. who is connected with the
National Automatic Sprinkler Asso-
citation, will deliver lecture on fire
prevention In the Commercial club
room tonight.
The Salem (Mass.) fire and the
Thomas Edison factory fire will be
cited in support Of his statements; and
stereopticon views of these places will
be shown. A full explanation Of the
causes and damage will be given in
connection with the slides.
Mr.. Hoagland maintains that the
best insurance against CONGREGATIONS
is the extinguishing Of insipient fires,
not by elaborate building of fireproof
construction. but by water through the
means of automatic sprinklers. He
has studied the conditions In Richmond
to some extent, and says that this city
is far from being immune to possibly
disastrous fire.
His lecture will be Of especial inter
est to the business men of Richmond,
and large attendance is expected at
the Commercial club. Mr.. Hoagland
was accompanied to Richmond by A.
Louis Betz of Cincinnati, who is inter.
ested in fire prevention work.

same fare as the sailors.
"We got in without being seen by
the enemy, and we can get out in the
