See that your home is safe. Call on your depart ment to £LSsist in inspecting your premises. Aid them in every way, and we won't have any fires.” Mr- Brockwell condemned the current practice of building hotels with stores beneath them, a danger ous condition, and he scored the use of school buildings for storage of automobiles and inflammables. We've had losses of over $500,000 in school buildings in the state during the past year, he said, blaming it on im proper use of the buildings. Fortu nately, we suffered no loss of life, but that doesn't mean we won't if the practice is continued.

The outlook for the success of the junior I.,egionnaires this year is far better than last year when the team finished only one place in back of the district finalists. All they need is another starting pitcher and the certainty that the problem behind the plate is settled. Frank Buchan may solve the pitching problem as he went on the mound for the local high school team several times dur ing the past*season and turned in very creditable performances, and if it turns out that he can repeat dur ing the present junicfr American Le gion season the Sandhills will, in all probability, have a team in the dis trict finals, come the middle of July.
