Bissell ,chairman of the Connecticut state council of defense, has sent a cireular lstter to the chair- men of county and town committees advising them of the steps which have been taken in the way of conservation in the matter of fire prevention and.so- liciting thefr cooperation in the work. The letter is as follows: “The stock _fire insurance com- Dpanies of America acting through the National Board of Fire underwriters, which is the buresu of standards and public service organization in addi tionl to direct service to the govern- | ment in various ways have inauguratea = nation-wide campaign designed to 2id in the conservation of the resources of this nation by. cooperat with | Property owners to prevent the destryc- tion’ of. property by fire. “To this énd the engineers and -in- spectors of ~the ~various insurance| companies have been organized in.the THE HUMAN FLY * COMING TO NORWICH Jack’ Williams Will Climb the Wau~ regan Building Next Monday Even. ing at 7:30. Jack Williams, the only and original human fly, is probably the greatest wonder of the twentieth century, even Edwin Rice Burroughs, creator of Tar- 7an could mot picture a mere unique character. ~ Jack Willlams began climbing at the age of twelve years, according to his own admission, Al- ciations and the Connmecticut State Conservation association was organiz- £d in this city. a few days ago. This general scheme has the active stp- port of the Council of National De- fense, ‘the governors and he fire mar- ghals of the several states, and at the |- directions of the Council of National, Defense is receiving the hearty co- operation. of all-State Councils of De- fense therefore has pledged its hearty cooperation in' this movement.

Certain classes of property { will not receive this service, viz; first, are under constant supervision of the Factory insurance .association or of the Factory Mutual Insurance com- panies; second, properties of compara- tively insignificant value, especially when so located as to be difficult and expensive of access; and third, dwell- ing houses, churches schools and a few other non-hazardous classes, though as to these inspections may be had at the time of the inspectors can be made available. “The inspectors engaged in this wark will come as the representatives of the State Council of Defense. and of the State government, and not as HUMAN FLY CLIMBING A SKY- SCRAPER ways had a mania for climbing. His human fly exhibitions are the most thrilling. Williams, who is to climb the Wau- regan Hotel on Monday, Oct. 15th, will probably present one of the most thrilling_exhibitions ever seen in Nor- wich. Nothing seems to daunt the hu- man fly when he leaves the sidewalk and starts his ascent upward. Hes goes up big marble pillars with the ease of a spider on its web. When the hufnan fiy gets up high enough his program of thrills begins to start in earnest. First, he will be seen hang- ing by one finger and doing the most daredevil stunt imaginable. Williams will make his climb heré under the auspices of the Morning Bulletin. He will start promptly, rain jor shine. at 7:30 p. m. next Monday. After he has made a brief address and told all about what he thinks we should do to assist Uncle Sam in win- ning the war he will take up a collec- ‘tion and donate 30 per cent. of all he collects to the Norwich Defense Council for War Work. He is assist- ed in making these collections by iadjes from New York interested in as~ sisting him to raise money in this way. pany. They have been instructed wheén making their inspecions not to discuss insurance -matters or to disclose the name of the fire insurance company on whose work they are ordinarily en- gaged. The service rendered will be without cost to the state or to the property owners ,whose properties are to be inspected. ' The. inspectors will each be provided with a card of au- thority issued by the governor of the state and countersigned by the state fire marshal and by the chairman of the Conmecticut State Council of De- Larger Cities First. _“The work will begin in the larger cities of the stae, and will be gradual- ly widened until all the.towns of the state have been visited. Before the in- spection in owns begins the visiting inspectors wil lendeavor to enlist the cooperation of our town committees, and you are therefore urged.to inform the members of younr committee as to his undertaking and to arrange in every possible way. to help he in- spectors with their work when you shall have been advised of their com- ing. This help ean well take the form of calling together a few influential and representative property owners so tha he work of the inspectors may be received in the spirit In which it is offered and also to the end that property owners may ufiderstand that the appeal of the inspectors will be made to hem as trustees having in thier custory certain property which in the last analysis belongs to the na- tion ,and which it i{s the duty of the owners thereof -to preserve ms a part of the resources and assets of this stae and of this country. ‘“This movement is part of the gen- erai nation-wide campaign to prevent the waste of the country’s resources and we hope and beliove 1t will result in a material reduction of the losses by fires which might otherwise occur.
