Fire Prevention Education.

Fire prevention in public schools
and fire prevention in homes are mat
tiers naturally of keen interest. In the
first case the question is largely one
Of proper legislation regarding the con.
struction and protection Of school
buildings; in the second case 1t IL
largely a matter Of individual educa-
ton. 1t is estimated that 60 per cent
Of fires occur In homes, though Of
course go per cent of the fire loss does
not result therefrOm.
Perhaps 1t is education which must
be relied upon to furnish the chief
weapon in the fight for fire proven
ton. Legislation is important +; so is
inspection of the construction and con.
dition Of buildings so that legislation
may be backed up. But, speaking
broadly, the cooperation Of the indi-
vidual, due to his "enlightened self.
interest" Is probably the essential fac.
tor in fire prevention as 1t is in the
other activities Of the Safety First fed.
