Faults in Chimney Construction.

The most common faults in chin
ney construction are:
|. The use of unsuitable building
materials. Clay sewer pipe, hollow
building blocks, or unprotected CON
crete should not be used.
,. Improper laying of brick. Brick
should not be laid on edge and should
be properly bonded. Lining should he
used in all brick chimneys, where the
walls are less than eight inches thick
Lack of mortar. especially in the per-
pendicular joints ruins many an other
wise good chimney.
3. Failure to support chimney prop
erly. 1t should never be carried on
any timber construction Of the build
ing, and where it rests upon the
ground sufficient masonry foundation
should be provided to prevent set
Ting.
4. Building inflammable material
into the chimney or against it With
out proper insulation.
5. Failure to anchor the smoke
pipe properly to the chimney.
g. Neglect of the connection he
tween smoke pipe and tlue or of the
tiue itself. The connection should be
tight; rusted pipe should be replaced:
the chimney should be kept clean and
the joints in the brick work properly
pointed.

HOME HEATING ADVICE

and Advisory Engineer
Chimneys.

Chimneys.
The prime function of a chimney is
to produce a draft that will cause ef-
ficient combustion and carry off the
resulting smoke. Many unsatisfactory
heating plants and much excessive
fuel consumption are due to improp,
erly constructed chimneys, which are
the rule, rather than the exception.
Although many of these are more III
efficient than dangerous. vet reports
of the National Board of Fire Under
writer's show that larger number of
fires are caused by defective chimney
construction than by anything else.
The annual loss resulting from such
fires is greater than the fire loss from
any other cause. Poor chimney CON
struction is responsible for smoke pol
luton of the air, waste of fuel and
poor heating.

Then water should contain the

Waters lacking in mineral con-

IFIREMEN'S PARADE FEATURED

Oldest Inhabitants.

swung open and the venerable hand
drawn apparatus of the Columbia En-
CINE Company runbled out across the
Threshold to pass in review along
Pennsylvania avenue In the annual
firemens parade.
Thousands of this generation who
thronged the sidewalks could remem-
Der fondly and clearly the prancing
fire horse of their childhood days as
he galloped by once more, but to them
the sight of the old Columbia engine
was like a vision of an era they had
only read about. Comparatively few
who watched the parade today could
claim memories of the Civil War days
when the Columbia was in service.
Apparatus "Spick and Span"
Despite their great age, the hose
wagon and hand-pump engine were
spicl1 and span today. The brass trim
mings, SO plentiful on the apparatus
of that period, glistened from recent
polishing, and the wooden framework
of each piece of apparatus appeared
to be as stanch as though it had come
from factory but a few years ago.
A dozen members of the Association
Of Oldest Inhabitants of the District
of Columbia, in whose custody the APP
paratus has been kept for many years,
volunteered to draw the Columbia in
the parade. Not only did they accept
the proud task of pulling the pioneer
equipment through the streets, but
these members of the Oldest Inhabi'
tants added a touch Of realism to the
scene by donning the red shirts, the
curousshaped helmets and the trum.
