FIRE PREVENTION
DAY DESIGNATED
President Issues ProcIama.
ton Fixing October 9
for Observance.

October has been set apart by
President Wilson as fire-prevention
day throughout the nation. proc
lamation to this effect has been sent
from the White House to all state
governors. requesting general OBJ
servance by the public.
In his proclamation the President
said there is urgent need for bringing
before the people the serious and I'M
happy effects of the unnecessary fire
waste and the need for individual and
collective effort in conserving the
natural and. created resources of
America" The proclamation follows:
1.-THE destruction by fire in the
United States involves an annual loss
of life of $4,000 men. women and chill
dren and over $3.50. 100000 in build
ings. foodstuffs and other created re-
sources.
THE need Of the civilized world for
American products to replace the
ravages of the great war is especially
great at this time.
THE present serious shortage of
homes and business structures makes
the daily destruction of building by
fire an especially serious matter
"a large percentage of the fires
causing the annual American fire
waste may be easily prevented by in
creased care and vigilance on the part
Of citizens"
