THEY HAD NO MASKS
Gas Routed Pupils From Two Rooms
at Polk School Today.

First the FLU" gave them a little
extra vacation and then this morning
the Riddles in two rooms at the Polk
street school were dismissed because
a sort of spontaneous combustion took
place in large quantities of coal stored
under these rooms.
There was no fire but the gas was
so strong that it was almost impossi-
BILE to continue work under those con-
ditions and as the youngsters are not
equipped with gas masks they had to
fail back from education, which is
their objective. It was unnecessary to
dismiss any of the other rooms

DEFECTIVE FLUES.

Defective fues and sparks from
neglected chimneys caused a property
fire loss in Mime ota Of 1898, 1888 in 1917.
This enormous loss in entirely UNI

assistant state fire marshal.
It is one of tie easiest things in the
world for a fire to start from detective
flue, and ore of tie easiest matters to be
corrected. Such fires are entirely UNI
necessary. It is carelessness which is
almost criminal at this time in the state
and nations history to allow an accumu-
lation OF SCOT in the chimney or to neglect
to see that the fue is proof against ac-
cidental fire." ~-~'s ~-.-....
The losses mentioned were caused from
1856 defective fues and 251 cases were
sparks caused by such defects resulted
in fires.
In commenting on this loss of more
than one third Of million dollars in
one year from these causes. Mr.. Nettleton
says that now-during the winter
months-is the season when such fires
occur, and that every precaution should
be taken at once by every householder,
manufacturer or occupant of factory
or dwelling to see that the danger is
eliminated. 80. -
