Gaining on the Fires.

While fire prevention, once understood,
needs advocates no more than fire lighting
there Is satisfaction in seeing that OH
eial efforts in preventing fires bring visi-
BILE results. The evidence does not ap.
pear concusively as yet in the yearly
totals OF fire losses within single town
or district. These figures in their huctua-
tons reflect the working of factors far
steadier than stated inspections and pro-
tectiye orders. In Fall River, Tor exam
pie, the last big fire broke city's record
of routine fire loss only less sharply
than did the conhagrstions in Salem and
Chelsea, Marblehead and Lynn Or look
at Wellesley's loss by fire. Reckoned year
and year, 1t approaches $4,000. But in
1914, the year of the main hall of the
college burned, the figure jumped to
S700,0 900. Even in the sore cost OF our
national fire waste, averaging now from
sunrise to sunrise, more than half
million dollars, and absorbing in its
enormous aggregate the local ups and
downs, the yearly totals zigzag capri
ciousl Y across their general curve OF ten
dency. Our best endeavors in fire pre-
yention are as those OF a man trying to
rein the thirty horses of runaway har-
vesting machine; we can guide and check
a little. we cannot yet bring the out
breaking forces under our control
But in the number of our fires. year by

Rocks Made to Tell Their Own Story.

The walls of the Grand Canyon in Ari-
IONA form a great natural geologic sec
ton, in which each layer OF rock is in
its original position relative to those
above and below it, In few other places
however, is the story of the upbuilding
of the carth's crust so plainly and inn
pressively told. As a rule the geologist
who would decipher the records of the
rocks must get bit here and a bit
there He may find the edges of some
beds expressed in a river bluff and others
sticking out on a steep mountain side. He
determines by fossils or other means the
order in which the beds were deposited,
and by putting all his information to-
gether he constructs what he calls a
columnar section for the district in which
he is working that is, a section showing
the order, thickness and character OF the
beds. Such a section disclo>es the strata
that form the upper part OF the earths
crust at that place. Just as slice OF
LAYER cake shows al a glance the va
rious LAYERS OF which il Is composed.
After a number OF districts in region
have been studied and their general col
umnar sections determined, the geologic
history Of the region can be learned by
these sections. Just a the en-
yineer who is drilling for low grade cop
per ores compares his drill records and
thus learns the outlines OF the ore body
