ABOUT THE HIGH SCHOOL
FIRE ALARM

We have received the following letter
which you may judge for yourself.
We regret to learn that the High
School student mentioned in the news
item last week suffered burns from
the phosphorus which caused the fire
alarm to be rung.)
Robert Patterson is sophomore
in the school, but not of an inquisit-
i've nature. He was given the phos-
phorus by girl who was unfortu-
nate is not securing a seat and had
to sit by the teachers desk. She dis
tributed samples of the phosphorus
among several of the students behind
the teachers back. The others were
all girls, and not having pockets, it
ignited in their hands, and they i'm
mediately dropped it. But unfortunate
ly Robert put it in his pocket and
his clothes caught fire. Robert looked
down, feeling the heat, and ran out
into the cloak room and sat in the
basin. But this only made the fire
spread. William Cruise happened to
sweater around him, smothering the
flames. The fire extinguisher wasn't
used"
