Personal Liability for Fire.

In number of American cities there
are now statutes providing for person.
la liability for fire, and the move
ment is one that appears to be slowly
but surely gathering Roadway. State
Fire Marshal John q. Gambler, illinois,
voiced an opinion upon this subject, in
addressing convention of flremen.
which is well worth reprinting. He
said
'sAs for a personal liability statute.
| believe it viii be of more Importance
in reducing fires than any single piece
of legislation II is time we quit pity
ing people who have fires because Of
their own carelessncss. The only
way to make people feel personally re-
sponsible as to fires is to hold them
liable by law A man who has pre-
ventable fire robs his neighbors, either
through the medium of insurance, or
an unjustified use of the public fire
which all must support
The safety OF the whole city may be
jeopartized at a critical moment while
the fire department is on run to
fire which never should have occurred.
Firemen may be injured and equip
ment damaged on such run. Fire de
partments are not maintained TO pro-
tect man from the results of his
negligence, and when he calls upon the
city in any such case, he should be
made TO pay for the service.
''Under personal liability statute
this can be brought about. Such
statute would assess upon individuals,
firms or corporations the cost of ex-
tinguishing or attempting to extin-
gIish all fires occurring on the premises
of such parties. whenever such fires are
the result Of failure to comply with
any law, ordinance, lawful regulation
or requirement of any state or MUM
cipal authority enacted or made for the
Of fire. II would also hold
such parties liable for any damages in
person or property resulting in extin-
gishing or attempting to extinguish !
such fires. Cities could adopt ordi- |
naces along the lines of the statute. |

VARIOUS COMPENSATION CASES.
Heard BY State Commissioner Buttles
In Western Vermont.

John H. Buttles, commissioner Of in
dustries, has returned from Bennington
and Rutland after hearing four com
pensation cases. The Bennington case
was that Of Harlinger VS.. G. b. Lund-
holm and Etna Insurance company. 1t
involved the length Of time OF dis
ability and the amount of permanent
Injury. The plaintiff is to have part of
the second finger Of his right hand
Manipulated. Mr.. Buttles ruled that he
be paid compensation for disability
until the finger heals. He win then be
paid a specific amount for complete
loss of the second finger and one half
of the third finger, with opportunity
for either party to appeal if new
circumstances arise. The total dis
ability payment will be for ~ IL
weeks.
In the three Rutland cases, all de-
cisions were reserved. In the case of
Starke VS.. Harmon Balch and Mary
land Casualty company there was
conflict of testimony as to whether the
injury in the case caused the plaintiffs
death. He died in November 1921 fol-
lowing injury in April 1921. II was
alleged that he was afflicted with boils,
outside Of his injury. Further evidence
was introduced tending to show that
the plaintiff received no injury and
was somewhere else at the time.
Tn the case OF Park Austin vs.. Ma
tional Engineering company, the ques-
tion involves the length of disability
and the amount of permanent injury
to arm and one leg Of plaintiff. It was
claimed that he did not submit his in
iuries to proper medical treatment. !
The Insurance company is the En-
ploycrs Liability Assurance company.
The other case is that of William P. /
Harris VS.. Staso Milling company and |
Travellers Insurance company. The in |
jury occurred February 10, 1919. The /
plaintiff suffered injury to his legs 1t /
was supposed at first that his case was
outside the provisions Of the compen-
sation law as be received over $4,000 a I
year. A recent decision in the Kelly |
.ase however, showerd that the case
would come under the law. He had
previously settled for three weeks COM

Keeping Young.

A man is beginning to age when he
loses interest in what Is going on about
him; when the general panorama OF
life, as reflected in books and newspa.
pers, becomes unlnportant to him;
when he ceases to respond to the
promptings Of love OF city, state and
nation; and when youth and its ways
become abhorrent TO him.
However, interest in any one OF these
things is not essential to the main
tenanec of young heart and intellect,
which we often find in bodies eighty
years old An absorbing work neces-
sarily causes withdrawal from many
activities. The writing Of book, the
mastery Of a language, the study Of a
science, the prosecution Of a big bust
ness or a profession, compel time-sav-
ing, AMI the minds and emotions of
men who do such things cannot be dis
turbed BY the trivial things which
yield SO much pleasure to the ma
jority.
Age has set in for its frosty reign
when mans sense Of humor and love
of fun stitien. They are the true bub-
bles Of youth in heart and mind. When
one cannot play with his grandchildren
and enjoy it, when he cannot laugh
at a joke or a funny incident, when
his intellect is struck on solemnities,
formalities and things remote, he IL
osd. His elasticity and bounce, his gin
var and nuneh are gone
All this ii healtI, continues, When
physical disabilities set in. whether at
10 to 10, and pain annoys, we may have
many symptoms of grabbed age, but
With restored health youth will re-
urn to the heart. A sound body pre-
serves and perpetuates the ambitions
md interests Of young years. 1t should
,e the first care of the man who does
rot want to grow old.-Chicago Jour-
ial of Commerce.
