THE NEED FOR
BUILDING CODES

New construction-both residential
and nOn-residential--which has been
an event Of the last year, places a
definite responsibility upon every
community. That responsibility is
to pass and enforce adequate build
ing codes designed to prevent fire.
Most of the larger cities of the
country have building codes
though some of them are out-of-date
and entirely inadequate for modern
conditions. In smaller communities
there are often no building codes at
all. A man can erect a fire-trap that
will endanger his neighbor and there
IS no law to stop him.
II is obviously better to prevent a
iire than to extinguish one after it
has started. And nothing does more
for fire prevention than a building
code with teeth in it," Such a code
has been prepared by the National
Board of Fire Underwriters, and has
been adopted in many areas. It
should be adopted universally.
Good building does not necessarily
mean expensive building. Certain
materials and designs will retard the
start or spread of fire where others,

The fell warning checked Jane. She
had heard stories about that awful des-

from 1t. A revulsIon OF feeling swept
over her. She was tired, tired enough
to drop Off her horse. Oppressed by
sense OF loneliness, helplessness, and
resentment at being ridlculed by a dis
agreeable stranger, her eyes filed with
angry tears. She began to cry as she
turned her horses head to follow him.

suspiclously.
Bill DenisOn, before whose door she

casually. "Only. that old man Van

At this Outburst Jane first stopped
breathing-then she breathed furious

outrageous" she exclaimed. "You
ought to be ashamed Of yourself"
The young man held his ground. LET
