ANOTHER NEEDLESS DISASTER

More than thirty lives snuffed out in
school house in Oklahoma. The tragedy might have
occurred in of several thousand school houses
throughout the country, because believed that
there isn't much danger here Vigan school officers
had caused stout wire netting to be placed outside the win
dows doubtless for the purpose of protecting property The
netting might have remained in position for ntermin
able time without disaster. But when panic seized those
in the school house, they could not quickly find
through the windows and they rushed for the door
A few months ago the state fire marshal urged more
stringent laws to compel in building school houses in
the state to prevent just such disasters The subject mat
ter of his report has been the of nterdepartmena
controversy In event, such warning from official
responsible for the enforcement of laws and regulations to
prevent fires is matter of public interest and is of
siderable Importance If does nothing than
pei attention to the question and bring the laws providing
fire protection for schools before the legislature
it will have accomplished something
Some time recently The Tribune and many school
of fire escapes Bismarck schools particularly the
William Moore school, and the suggestion that disaster might
Turk in their absence met with eers in quarters
The board of education since has decided to place fire
the building, and is to be congratulated the decision
The possibility of such disaster occurring in Bismarck
did in Oklahoma present. and always will be
ent in school where there not ample methods for
quick egress of all pupils.
Panic and not fire responsible for most of the deaths
in every disaster such the Oklahoma school fire. The
school buildings of North Dakota should be not only fire
proof but panc proof and official newspaper and
citizen should that investigation is made Immediately

written the following poem:
CHRISTMAS
Beautiful Christmas Morn,
Hear the angels sweet refrain:
Christ the Lord is born,
Redeemer of earth's distress and
pain.
Nc meeker child was born,
Gods beauty around him shone.
Poor, but not forlorn.
Made earth His foot-stool, heaven
His throne.
No gorgeous palace His,
In stable manger slept,
Oh. what JOY was this
That over the shepherds camp
thus swept.
Wandering friend take heart!
Like wise men follow the star.
Christ will do His part,
Enter We! The door is wide ajar.
