Suggestions Made Following

Augusta Fire department, Tuesday.
when asked about his work of in
spection. ''They show us all around
and every suggestion we make that
we think will lessen the chances of
fire IS faithfully carried out"
During one inspection I found
several oil mops standing in various
corners and l asked that these be
kept in tin pals to lessen any chance
that they might catch fire and start
a real blaze. The next visit found
every one Of them in pals. One
store keeper told me that he would
like to see me about three times a
week and that he wished I would
jump on him every time I found
something wrong. He said that he
was too busy himself tending to his
business to see and recognize all fire
hazards and that he would be onlv
too glad to have me check up on
things as he was not in business for
his health and he did not want to
have to go out of business because
of fire.
Il have been taking the drivers
with me on these inspections which
we conduct every month. One month
l take one man, the next month
another and while am looking the
premises over I also give them q
chance to locate the stairways and
get a general idea of the layout,
so that in case of a blaze they have
working idea of the plan of the
building. This is of particular value
In several stores where the only wav
to reach the cellar is through q
trap door. If one of those places
was afire and full Of smoke, a man
who did not know how to reach the
cellar might waste valuable time
trying to find the door.
The stores on Water street. on
Sand Hill and on State street have
all been looked over and within q
few days Cony Hill will have been
cleared up as well. On this last in
spection, because of the approach
or cold weather. i have given par
ticular care to the chimneys, smoke
pipes, elbows and heaters. At one
place 1 found pipe that looked
pretty good but examination proved
that 1t was so thin that you could
stick a pencil through it anywhere,
notified the proprietor and two or
three days later l went in and he
showed me some brand new pipe
all installed. There will be no
chance for trouble from that in
