Tuesday. Fire Prevention Day. spe- cial exercises and talks were given in the schools of Norwich. on the sub- ject of wusing cauion in handlign matches and the careless handling of inflammable material. On . Monday afternoon the children of the Hobart Avenue school visited the Central fire station and were shown the workings of the apparatus. Today the pupils of Laurel Hill school will be given a demonstration of the running of ‘the fire fighting machines. A short run will be made for the benefit of the pupils as they so seldom see the ap- paratus in action. . Few persons realize the importance of “Fire Prevention Day” and for this reason the following figures have been compiled by Chief Stanton to show just what can‘be done by the individ- ual in the prevention of fires: In 1916 there was a fire every minute through- out the United States and a loss of $600 000 every day The lass durinz the year amounted to $214530.995 against $170 033200 _in 1915. This year the 1917 losses bid fair to ex- ceed 250,000,000. : It is estimated that.600,000 matches are scratched every minute in the United States and every one careless- ly thrown away is apt to produce a fire and help to keep-the per capita fire loss in the country to $2.86 against eight cents in = Austria in times . of peace, and 53 certs in England. It is up to every person to help conserve the resources of the country by the ‘prevention of fires the more s0 now during these times of scarcity of nearly every commodity that emters into our national life. In additioh to the enormous loss by fire each year which must be paid by every person there is an equal amount paid for the maintenance of the fire department. The large sum of $500.- 000,000 is paid out each year for losses and the maintenance of fire E ments in the United States. All of these facts may help to impress upon the minds of every one as well as the school children the importance of this “Fire Prevention day”. If every in- dividual in the country will do his part in the prevention of fire the main- tenance cost and‘ the erlormous ‘fire losses can be lowered in the United State considerably.

Much interest bas aiready been shown in this project i ttroughout the county and there i= much good corn whizh it is expected will be on exhibition. In view of the fact that the frost hurt so many corn- fields. that which proves good will probably be in demand for seed pur- poses. and this part of the exhibition will_be pushed to its fullest extent Following is a list of the rules and regulations which were adopted by the committee: Any resident of Tolland county Is elizible to exhibit. Exhibits must be zrown by the competitors and must in all cases be from 1917 crop, except cornmeal nad ite _products.
