The Ardmore disaster has furnished
an appalling illustration of the explo-
sive force Of gasoline and should serve
to admonish all users of this dangerous
liquid to exercise the greatest caution.
The authorities tell us that gasoline
gives off an explosive vapor constant
ly even at low temperatures. 1t Is
pointed out by one of our exchanges
that five gallons of gasoline will gen
crate 5000 cubic feet of gas, which,
when ignited, expands to 1900 times
this space. The explosive force in one
gallon Of gasoline properly mixed with
air and compressed is equal to SO 2-3
pounds Of dynamite This means that
if you have 100 gallons of gasoline OIL
hand you are storing equivalent in ex-
plosive force of S366 pounds Of dyna-
mite.

THE NEW METHOD OF TOWN
BUILDING.

In the light OF the calm retrospec,
tive view that we are now capable
OF taking, probably most Of us realize
that as community we pulled off
many foolish stunts during the period
of feverish town building activity a
few years ago. Our intentions were
good and the spirit with which we
went about our big undertakings was
admirable but our judgment was at
fault. In those days it was the relig
ious duty Of everybody to "be a Doos.
err after the approved fashion of the
day In our enthusiasm we fanced
that towns could be built of mere emo

mass meetings.

Towns are the natural evolution and (
