 The fireplace. with it's cheery. open fire. has often been called the heart of the home, but the refrigerator hid den away in some dark and dismal is just as important as the heart. at least. The location of the Humble refrigerator and it's construction should be as carefully worked out as the design of the fireplace.
 Homes are generally all designed in much the same way. The design starts at the frcnt of the house and the rooms are carefully laid out, The kitchen. however, is left to fill up any space that may be left and the result is often inconvenient and uEsat- isfactory. The business end of a house is one of the most important. Anyone who has worked in a kitchen that has everything arranged so that nothing is handy and that is toe small to admit of any changes being made knows what a relief it is to have a well-arranged kitchen.

A FIRE PREVENTION DAY

Saturday, Oct. g, has been set apart as a Fire Prevention Day. It is the anniversary of the Chicago fire. Clean ing up of rubbish, fire drills, 1ec- lures by fire fighters in schools and elsewhere. and examination of ap- p;aratus, are urged
 A fruitful observance for this pur- pose would emphasize the idea that security from fire is a matter of in- dividuaI Temperament. Some people are born cautious If mutual in- surance company could be constituted of such lpefsons only, it could give a very low rate of premium. But the most cautious person may have neg ligent helpers.
 To the newspaper man who trots around reporting fires, it is noticeable that in most cases one has the least idea how a fire started. If the owner can't think Of anything else, he charges it up to spontaneous combustion' '' matches gnawed by rnice" or Defective wiring" These ancient and hoary stock causes Should begiven rest. They are badly over worked They have been the goat for many offences they never commit ted.
 There are more people who can guess how fires started than are will ing to admit it. This does not mean that they burned their own buildings for the insurance. It is simply that they are ashamed of their stupid acts of thoughtlessness.
 Nine tenths of the fires come from some little act of personal reckless ness. The custom of throwing light ed matches into waste paper baskets

and other rubbish wipes out regular ly its millions of property. Failure to clean out chimneys and smoke pipes is a fruitful cause. Many peor pie allow stove pipes to rust out. A fire Of light refuse is started in the fall, and the sparks emerge freely from the rotten pipe. People will open all the drafts of furnace or stove and go off and lock up a house, Soon the overheated pipe sets unpfotect- ted woodwork. afire.
 Another wretched habit is allow ing a mass of flimsy packing cases and pa cking material to collect in basements. If Fire Prevention Day could arouse people to the stupidity and costliness of such careless ways, it would be, we'll worth making a legal holiday of it.
