FACTS ABOUT FIRE

During 1881 fire destroyed approxi-
mately 10000 lives.
Nearly one-third of these were chiI-
dren under ten years of age
Two-thirds of the total were burned to
death in homes.
The total economic loss was $464, $780,
265.
In order to visualize these facts. com
pare them with the following
The annual fire bill is about equal to
rs per cent OF the interest ON our national
debt. "
taxes recently imposed on us will produce,
in a year, very little more than the annual
fire bill
Over 80 per cent of all fires are easily
preventable.
Fire is the great destroyer-not only
of lives and property, but of employment,
business opportunities, community and in
dustrial progress. Of every hundred in
dustrial establishments burned in the last
five years, As were not rebuilt. The waste
was complete and absolute
The conquest of fire is simply the con-
quest of public ignorance, laxness and in.
difference. Each Of us owes the community
duty-to eliminate the hazards on ou1
property. We cannot afford the .sluxury'
Of fire.

A MONSTER SKELETON

After being buried for ages in the fossil
beds of northeastern Utah, the largest
skeleton ever discovered on land now
stands in Carnegie Museum at Pittsburgh,
a striking example of the monsters which
roamed the earth during the Ages of Rep
tiles, many millions of years ago.
This Skeleton Is that of Brontosaurus
of the dinosaur order of reptiles, 100 feet
long and 90 feet high In life the animal
weighed perhaps 20 tons. Alongside of it
an elephant would seem as small relatively
as a dog beside horse.
The fossil bed from which it was taken
is the most extensive deposit of dinosaurian
and other reptilian remains ever discovered.
It was found in 1919, and the site is under
the protection of the National Park Service
More than 200 tons of bones and other
material of scientific value have been re-
moved from study and exhibition, with very
little duplication of specimens.
According to recent statement by the
Park Service, it is the belief of scientists
that these prehistoric animals were ORR
ginally imbedded In sand bar i'm some
ancient river. This sand turned into sand
stone and was covered by thousands of feet
of other strata of rocks, the whole later hav-
ing been forced into an upright position by
great volcanic upheaval, which left the
fossil bed exposed OH a mountain top
Through the patient labors of scientists
who are continually exploring among such
records preserved in the rocks, as we'll as
among the ruins of ancient civilization,
salient facts in the worlds history which
were totally unknown few years ago are
being brought to light. s
