Move to Grade Building.

Tine expldnatlOn.
Move to Grade Building.
When this committee had finished
with the high school building, they
moved over to the grade building and
did the same thing there. Rawlings
described the basement and advocated
entering not by way of the main stair
way but rather through a window in
case of fire in the basement. This was
because there might possibly be danger
of exit by the stairway being closed
off in case the fire should develop into
bad one. Baker and Farris described
the two upper floors.
In It's reports the committee said that
everything about the two buildings was
in fine condition from the standpoint Of
fire hazard. 1t was also brought out
that the schools have fire departments
of their own that have. worked out
methods of emptying the buildings
within a very few minutes after an
alarm is sounded.
After finishing with the school
houses, the chief called on another
committee to make a similar report re-
garding the Hotel Libby. This report
was made by Jack Harris, George
Wood and Ray Pival Their reports
were also highly instructive and inter
esting and after they had finished one
had clear picture in mind Of the gem
eraI floor plans of the hotel, how best to
enter the building and fight fire. And
by the way, after all the diagrams had
been drawn the firemen jokingly said
that George Woods was the best drafts
man Of the six whe had reported.
Remove Fire Hazards.
This study of buildings is a highly
important work and one few Libby citi-
zens are aware the department is do
ing. In making their examinations, the
firemen are watching for undue fire
hazards and when they are found, they
are reported to the owners and attempt
made to correct them. All the principal
business and public buildings are thus
examined and studied at intervals of
every two or three years. During this
month, committee consisting of E. j.
Driear. Walter Kemp, Ward Shanahan
and Fred Gooselaw are to make an
examination of the forest service ware
house at the corner of California
avenue and Second street They will re-
port at the April meeting of the de-
partment.
This examination and study of build
ings not only helps to eliminate unnec-
essary fire hazards but it gives the
firemen mental picture of the vari-
GUS buildings and how best to attack a
fire when one breaks out. 1t is a work
in which every Libby citizen should
take a keen interest-and not only in
terest but pride in that we have a
group of firemen so alive to the tasks
they have set themselves to handle.
The first feature of the evenings pro-
gram was the showing of a real of NOV
ing pictures by VIM. Farris These gave
views of the recent flood water in the
Granite creek area south Of town, pic
tured the fire trucks moving out for
run, gave views of firemen and city
officials and also a number of views of
airplanes at the Spokane airport
