For a good many years il has been the custom to

The sweet significance Of Dulcie
is fully warrented. II is undoubtedly
one Of the most charming names IN
feminine nomenclature. 10 has its
origin in "dulcis" meaning sweet" or
mild" and is explained by Spanish
authors as the source OF the Spanish
favOrlte Dulcia. Aldoncia and Od0n-
cla are other forms OF the same name,
which occurred frequently among the
Navarrese and Catalonian princessos
from the year 900 to 1900.
Don OuixOte, il will be recalled,
translated his Aldonca Lorenzo into
the peerless Dulclnca del Tobosc0.
Meanwhile Dulcia was popular i'm the
South Of France. 10 finally became
Douce and was taken TO England at
the time OF William the Conqucror,
as Dusca. Later it was changed to

FZREBUC BJTA SMALL FACTOR
(EditOriaI)

In connection with the celebration OF Fire Pre-
vention Day in Wilmington IL is not amiss 10 call
attention TO the fact that tho incendiary, or
hrcbug, who sets out deliberately 10 burn prop
erty and terrify the community is but a small
factor in the country's great annual loss by fire.
Recent figures show that criminal fires are OK
acting a toll of about sSOOOOOO per year in the
United States.
The average householder by his carelessness
has far greater record of destruction in this
regard.
For instance, fires originating from stoves, fur
naces, boilers and their pipes are destroying an
nually about Sl2,OOO,OOO worth of property; caro-
less smokers each year cost the country si6,OOO,-
900 in preveniabc fires.
The reckless handling of petroleum and its
products nilict a damage amounting to approxi-
mately S7OOO,OOO, and the extent Of this damage
appears TO be growing; sparks roofs cost
something like S7,OOO,OOO per year, and the
wooden shngle roof is widespread hazard ex-
isting in every community.
Fortunately, we have had recently no serious
loss in Wilmington caused by criminal pcendia-
ries but II is a great question whether or not the
careless man who sets fire and causes so much
though in many the law cannot touch him
