While final figures are not available the total will be well over half a billion dollars. In spite of the steady development of fire fight- ing science and equipment and fire protection engineering there has been a steadily increasing fire loss year after year. The figures are now. reaching such tremendous proportions that the Na- tional Fire Association believes that it is justified in making an appeal to all persons in a position to inform the public, to make a sustained effort dur- ing the present year to spread the gospel of fire prevention. It seems clear that fire prevention education is is the most important factor at the present time toward a reduction of fire losses. It is safe to say that over seventy-five per cent of this waste is preventable. Carelessness Worst Enemy Public indifference, carelessness, or ignorance is responsible for most of our fires. Consider the chief cause of fires--Matches--Smoking. This one item costs us in the neighborhood of eighteen million dollars yearly. This hazard can only be reduced through a widespread campaign conducted by the press with the co-operation of the various national associations, fire marshals, and other bodies and indi- viduals of influence. Any of the other main fire hazards, sufh as electricity or defective chimneys could be re- duced by a similar campaign. All Should Help Those who recognize this needless waste, and support the fight against it are performing a valuable public serv- ice. The National Fire Protection as- sociation is at all times ready and willing to supply information or as- sistance to anyone interested in pre- | venting .fire losses. This year can be made the turning point. A stand must be made against this disastrous rising tide of fire. There is no better time than now. Your support is ear- nestly requested. Address for bulletins, statistics and other information, Na- tional Fire Protection Association, 87 Milk Street, Boston, Mass. AMERICAN "MAZON NOT FANCIFUL DREAM American Women Becoming Physically Perfect Chicago -- Women stronger physically. "And is it not reasonable to -sup- pose," asked a delegate to the Nation- al' Fraternal Congress here, 'that America may develop a race of Ama- zons physically superior to the lunch- bolting city man?" "Yes," was the emphatic some women delegates. "No; absolutely no," retorted men delegates. " We admit that men are steeped in nicotine, a condition preva- lent in all countries. And we deplore food-bolting, distinctly a trait of the American business man. But we insist that woman will always be the weaker sex." are becoming reply of Mortality Rate Decreasing Nevertheless reports of the various organizations showed that the mortal- ity rate among women is decreasing to a most gratifying extent. This was particularly true in the case of the Supreme Forest, Woodmen Circle whose 150,000 members are mostly women. Widespread criticism of the debutantes' late hours and the aver- age woman's indiscreet diet are there- fore to be greatly discQunted. "Women are in fact on the road to physical perfection," said one dele- gate. "There are far more perfect thirty-sixes today than five years ago. Women generally are observing rules of diet, exercise and rest, which is more than can be said for city men. Not only are women observing these common sense laws, but they are preaching them to their husbands and forcing them upon their children. New health campaigns are found everywhere. Junior circles are now being organized by Woodmen Circle women in every state to teach children health, thrift and patrotism." Statistical reports show that tuber- culosis still claims a greater number of women than any other disease. Canada's Vets Add To Land Holdings Ottawa, Ont.--While various Ameri- can business and political groups are locked in a dramatic struggle over the proposed soldiers' bonus, Canadian ex- service men are rapidly extending their land holdings under supervision of the Soldier Settlement Board. Pre- liminary estimates for 1922 indicate the early cultivation of thousands of additional acres. Not only the Dominion and provin- cial governments, but all commercial and agricultural organizations as well are helping lead the soldier-farmers to prosperity. Keenest pride in the proj- ect is reflected throughout the nation. Latest reports of the Board show that over 27,000 men have taken up land; that the sum of $86,504,857 has been loaned to 21,039 of them; that $47,798,144 has been used for land purchases, $26,662,909 for stock and equipment, $10,014,531 for permanent improvements and $2,029,273 to re- move encumbrances. Of 61,824 men who applied for land 44,320 have quali- fied as to their fitness for farm work. To qualify, a man must have worked at least a year with a practical farmer, during which time his progress is closely observed. Canada's experiment is being watched by agricultural nations of the world. It has developed--and solved --many new problems. The experiment has proved that young men will re- main on the farms and be contented if the community spirit is properly developed. This community spirit has also brought contentment to the hundred of immigrants in the newly settled regions of the west. The west- ern provinces now boast that a good school is in easy distance of every farm, and that good schools, churches, good roads and a rousing community spirit are largely responsible for the prosperity of the farmer-soldiers, as well as of the west generally. PUBLIC SCHOOL VIOLIN CLASSES Glen Halleck, well-known violin in- structor, has opened classes in the Winnetka public schools. Class ses- sions are held at Horace Mann, Greeley and Hubbard Woods schools. Mr. Halleck has taught privately in north shore hotels for some time and is. favoraly known to many Win- netkans.
