SHOWS HOW EASILY
FIRES ARE STARTED

Fire" was the subject Of an in
structive lecture given by Harold L.
Miner. manager Of the Fire Protec-
ton Division Of the DUPONT Com
pany. before a meeting OF members
and friends of the Industrial Safety
Committee Of the Delaware Safety
Council in Pythian Castle last
night.
Illustrating his talk with chem
ical tests, Mr.. Miner explained some
OF the easily avoidable causes OF
confiagrations that occur in indus
trial plaR.s. Most fires are caused,
he showed, by bringing together
elements of very high combustible
nature when combined with one
another In the presence Of oxygen.
One OF the most interesting OF Mr..
Miners experiments was that which
showed the great affinity of the ele-
ment sodium with oxygen causing a
violent combustion. Sodium, which
is found in large quantities in many
industrial plants will even break
water down into its basic elements,
hydrogen and oxygen, and cause the
hydrogen thus liberated TO burn
from the heat of liberation. The
oxygen liberated In this experiment
unites with the air.
The meeting was well attended by
many men employed in industrial
plants, as well as members OF the
Safety Council.
