The
Safety
Today Is Fire Prevention
Day Throughout the
United States
It is creditably stated in the official records
of the National Beard of Fire Underwriters that
during last year there was an actual insurance
paid exceeding five hundred millions of dollars,
owing te carelessness and ignorance, as stated
by the Underwriters.
Infinitely worse than the money less was the
probability that fifteen thousand lives were lest
because of the fires.
The "Chamber of Commerce deserves our
thanks for its activity in bringing te the notice of
the people the 'necessity for greater care in
prevention of fires.
. This is net a matter merely for the heads of
interests or of business concerns, but for each
individual.empleycd te watch against the chances
of conflagration.
It may be a long, long trail, but we must come
along the way te patiently overcome the losses
of life and treasure through fires.

Almest every family regards a t and father's

A geed clock, properly made and well taken care

The musical voice of a geed big clock in the corner

Hardly any piece of silver, picture or any ether
article could make such a friendly impression in the
home as the chiming of a Grandfather's clock.
These clocks range in price from $345 te $960.
The sizes of these clocks are se varied that one will
