' Burnlnga From time to time, alas too frequently, the people are startled and horrlV fUd at l,e destruction of some school building and the awful death of many' of lis Inmates. So far these horrors have occurred In other states but the i.peal to our people is to arouse tbeoi before a like disaster occurs In our inidat. We boast of having erected a : school building a day for the last twelve years in North Carolina, and yet, our bent buildings are of the class, the burning of which has caused the moat frequent and gieatest loss of Itrea. i Batter Buildings.

The two g-eat dangers In school and many other fires are the rapidly spreading Are and the "smoke panic." Cut out the smoke filling the building and provide for conditions that will prevent the fire from spreading rapidly and every child can be saved without less of life or even damage. Of course ihe better class of building the flower it will burn; but some plan is need ed to bring about these conditions where the better class of buildings cannot be erected or where the more dangerous class is already erected and in use. Remedy. . This can be done hy closing all openings between the different floors and where the building in of hollow construction putting stops in the walls at each floor and at least once between floors The place of stairways or means of comnmnii atlnn from one floor to another can he supplied hy "Double Tower Stairways" outside the main wa'ls of the bul'dii.g. They are rut off from the building but enclosed a:id furnished two partitions, one for the platform and the other for the steps or stairways. No smoke ran reach from one floor to another and under this plan even (1:1 the stairways or cause the smoke panic, the horror of all school fires and the main cause of the casualties. Your attention is called to the cuts showing the first floor and second floor plans, and the double tower stairwovs. The ?ize of tills tower and its cost depends of course upon the slxe of the building, but In all cases it can be built ractknlly for the cost of the inside stairway, made possible by the saving of space In the building and its cost. DISTRIBUTION OF RISKS BEWARE! It Is Clearly Understood That the Fundamental Idea and Basis of Insurance Remains the Same. There Is a business concern some where in this country manufacturing a preparation known as solvlte. The name Is doubtless also the product of the same enterprising pirates. We ! call them pirates, not because we feel The economic function of i-.isurance i any uni haritablness In our heart, but the fundamental idea which was oril : because, as it seems to us, It would nally tts basis and which remains so j require gentlemen wllh souls such as has long been clearly understood.
