The richer households send good
things TO the poor. and everywhere
among both rich and poor are the ami

MAYOR CALLSON
CITY TO OBSERVE
PREVENTION DAY
Harrisburg to Do It's Share in
Making Pennsylvania
"Fireproof''

Urging a hearty cooperation on
the part of the citizens of Harris
burg in the observance of Fire Pre-
vention Day." November 2, Mayor
Daniel L. Keister to-day issued a
proclamation calling upon every one
to do his part toward making Penn
sylvania fireproof."
Fire Prevention Day will be OBJ
served all over the state at the re-
quest of the state fire marshal's Of
fee. Posters telling of the signifi
canoe of the day have been distrib
uted broadcast, and will be placed
in public places between now and
November 2.
The Mayors proclamation follows:
Proclamation
Whereas, The purpose of the State
Fire Marshal in naming a day to be
observed as Fire Prevention Day"
is with the idea of arousing the citi-
Zens to the evils and magnitude of
fire waste. and aside from their in
dividual responsibility in eliminat-
ing a menace vitality affecting their
own welfare, to impress upon them
the importance of conserving Amer
lean resources fro mdestruction by
fire; and
Whereas, The menace of fire has
never before in the history of our
country been greater and the pre-
Servation of resources more neceS-
sary;
Therefore, I, Daniel l.. Keister,
Mayor of the City of Harrisburg, do
proclaim Saturday, November 2,
1918. as Fire Prevention Day" in
the City of Harrisburg, and would
make the following recommended
tions for the observance thereof:
First-EXamination of premises
by owners and occupants with the
view of removing and properly dis
posing of waste accumulations, and
Immediately arranging for remedy
or correction of fire hazards.
Second-Short talks by employers
to- employees on the subject of fire
prevention.
Third-Observance of fire drills
in institutions, factories and other
establishments.
Fourth-Especial care in the
handling of matches, lamps, lights,
heaters, and all other forms of fire
hazard.

table rubbish put in metal contain
ers and removed from buildings
daily.
Sixth-To have your easements
aad cellars put in a perfectly clean
condition.
Seventh-Ascertain the location of
nearest fire alarm box and study di-
rections for sending in alarm.
The unprecedented concentration
of population and values in Harris

ton might easily turn into a disas-
ter of the first magnitude.
AS Mayor of the City l hereby call
upon sall citizens to cooperate for
the public safety by following the
foregoing SUGGESTIONS
DANIEL L. KEISTER,
Mayor.
