Methods of Fire Prevention Should Be Studicd In Every Home. ln bygoue days the functlon of the chief of a fire department was merely to put out tires. Nowadays his duty i3 to prevent them., Originally a tfireman’s work was de- fensive. Now it is also offensive. It attacks the cause. Most fires are preventable. Individ- ual carelessness is the chief cause. Education of the public—even fnvolv- ing punitive measures—is the remedy. The simplest method of getting rid of tires i first to get rid of things that burn. “Cleanup days™ are no novelty. They have undoubtedly reduced the fire loss ratio, but the very fact that there is need of an annual cleanup is proot that the public has not yet been rightly educated. Ounce a year is not often enougzh to wash the publie’s face or to brush its teeth and clean out its ears. This should be a daily task. Waste, rubbish and combustibles should not be allowed to accumulate. The public education must go fur- ther. It should be carried Into the home and should begin with the child. A periodical lecture or talk given at least once o moonth in the public schools by a fireman in unlform would strike at the very root of the tire prob- tem. An official in uniform always im presses a child, and his remarks and directions would carry the welght or | authori These lectu it illustrat- sharts and diagrams would be | more emective and would graphically | present to the child mind not only the dangers ot ftire, but the wmethods of prevention and gquick extinguishment. | In sowme s juvenile police depart | ments have been established with va ried success, but a juvenile fire depart- | ment, whether organized or merely ex Isting in the educational o juipment of children to prevent amd extinguish fires, would be one of the most ad- vanced steps taken toward the con- servation of human life and property —Insurance Pr ! e | HER GiFT OF MIMICRY. ci Loftus Could Imitate Irving and Bernhardt Equa'iy Well. { Walter Prichard Eaton in the Amer. fean Magazine says in an article about famous mimics “In the days when Cissie Loftus was | delighting vaudeville auwdiences with | her imitations she used to give an jmi- | tation of Lilllan Russell. Miss Rus- sell countered by giving an imitation | of Miss Loftus’ imitation of her. But to an artist like Miss Loftus that pre- sented no diflienlties. She merely came back with an imitation of Miss Rus sell's imitation of her imitation of Miss Russell! The rair Lillian thereupon retired from an uncqgual contest, “Clsste Loftus could imitate any- body. The present writer once heard her In the course of a casual conversa- tion fmitate most thrillingly Sir Hen- ry Irving in a blank verse death scene. Then an Imaginary curtain descended, and you heard Sir Henry, in a totally different volce (no less unmistakably his), inquiring In very Saxon prose, where the deuce were the red lights? “Standing on the stage of a theater, without change of costume, with the flicker of a smile on her rather wistful face, she would range from Sarah Bernhardt to Ethel Barrymore, so that you almost gasped at the uncanny cleverness of it, and if you shut your eyes you could hardly belleve that the actual persons were not present, “Hers of course was an extraordi- nary gift of mimicry, and it brought her in $1,000 a week, much more prob- ably than she could command as an actress.” Zulu Songsters. The arrival of a European {n a Zulu village, the opening of a rallway, a war, a famine, a plague of locusts, a pestllence may become topics for semi- public songs that are soon circulated among the people. Songs are used at the public functions of chiefs, such as the feast of the first fruits and at roy- al marriages. War and tribal songs are possessed by every chief and tribe. At marriages and other public ceremo- nies it is the Zulu custom to render not only the songs of the llving chief, but those made famous by his father and grandfather.
