Rotarians Help
General Cleaning
To Preuent Fires

Assisting the city government in
its efforts to control the fire insur-
ance rate in Paris by general
cleanup campaign within the lire
limits. was agreed upon by the Ro-
tary Club in luncheon meeting on
last Friday A committee was ap-
pointed to call a meeting of the
merchants and inaugurate plan for
a general cleaning-up of easements,
and effecting a compliance with the
various defects recently noted by the
state fire prevention commission.
The effort OF the Rotary Club, as
well as of the city government, is
entirely unselfish--being a movement
to get things in shape for the COM
ing re-rating of the city from lire
insurance rate standpoint. The city
has not had re-rating since 1913.
All owners of buildings and tenants
who would contribute TO lessening the
fire insurance burden will more than
willingly assist in the campaign.
The Rotary committee will meet
this morning to map out plans for
procedure.
