TO SAVE SCHOOLS
FROM FIRE PERIL
Citizens Of Maryland Towns
Urged To Join In Movement
To Protect Property.
BY w. ]. Holloway.
Supervisor Rural Schools, State
OF Maryland Department
Of Education.

An important step in the inter-
est OF IRE preventiOn- throughout
the State has been taken BY the
State Department OF Education in
providing. through the new course
Of study for rural schools. that
children IN the elementary grades
shall receive definite instruction
In fire hazards and the various
means u reducing the losses from
IRE % life and property. This IS
taken care u mainly in the course
ia civicS. Ii j. stated that one OF

curriculum = citizenship. The
child citizen Is 60 he taught his re-
.ation % the various environment
Al agencies with which he comes
IN contact. what j. provided by
ms local. State and National Gov
-rnments for his protection and
welfare. and what service he can
N turn render in the efficient or
dering OF community life.
IL is intended that there shall be
developed in every school child a
consciousness of his responsibility
in the prevention of fire through
the correct use OF matches, kero-
sene and gasoline the care of fires
n stoves and fire places; the
proper banking of fires at night,
and by keeping the home and SUR
roundings free from rubbish and
Ill infammable material.
The pupils will be taught what
% do when an outbreak of fire oc-
,urs-how to give the alarm. how

low to get animals out of danger
md what they can do to extin-
yuish the fire. They are to learn
llso what to do in case of a per-
'onal injury, treat a burn. etc.
How TO apply first aid in all emer-
yencies is fully treated in the
course in hygiene.
The significant feature of this
advance step of Maryland's public
school system is, that the children
will receive this instruction sys-
tematically, year after year. 1t
will be as much a part of the re-
luired course of study as is read
ing. spelling. arithmetic, etc. 1t
cannot but have tremendous in
auence on the knowledge, attitude
and practice of the whole people.
No less important a contribu-
ton to the States efforts to lessen
its losses from fire is the syste-
matte campaign which has been
conducted for several years by
State and county school authori-
ties to clean up and improve pub
lie school properties. To that end
there has been stressed, in all
schools, high and elementary,
white and colored. the value OF the
annual observance, preferably in
the early fall, of "Clean-Up and
School Improvement Day" On
this day the regular work of the
school is suspended, for the after
noon at least, and the patrons and

THE CASE OF ARBUCKLE, EFT AL

The Arbucklc case, with its ac
Companying revelations OF dis

from number OF the leading

the Withdrawals are merely anti
cipating the wishes of their audi
ences.

he is charged is not likely. IN

Why He Never Became Rich
By JACK WEEMS

He spent what he made gave it away Then tried to money. and would for day; Started bank account time and again, And maybe got up to a hundred-and then Some fellow that needed it than he did Who told some hard luck of sick wife or kid Came along. Then he wasted no time till he went And lorked over. his savings every darn cent They say he died poor-I guess that is To pile up a fortune he hadn' a show Worked all the time; good money he made; And known very good man at his trade. He saw too much, and he heard so much here To save anything by the end of the year. The shabbiest wretch that God let live Could get money from him if he had it to give. I've seen him slip dimes to buns on the street Who said they suffered for something to eat; And when some one remarked he wanted drink, He said Maybe so-and I'd sure hate to think That poor wretch was hungry and I'd passed him by. I'd rather be fooled twenty times by a lie Than think that of them wouldn't feed Had told me the truth and was really in need. " Never cheated his family out of thing That his hardearned dollars could possibly bring. He would rather be broken and know they glad, Than see them pining and wishing they had Some of the things his money could buy; So he could never look bank note in the eye If he had to know it had to grow from the joys That he had robbed from his wife and two little boys Queer sort of notion he had 1 confess. But many rich man in much finer dress Well knew him and came back to his side To honor his name on the day that he died. He didn t leave much in the bank, 1t is true; But did leave a feeling in the people he knew. For the big heart of him. Pm willing to swear, That today he's one of the richest up there.
