The F rench people have said of we A m ericans: “ T hat we are m ighty builders and m ighty b u rn ­ e rs ,” and so we are, not in te n tio n a l­ ly or crim inally, but negligently and carelessly. This is indeed an age of g reat achievem ent and economic reform s, and forem ost is th e im m ense saving of property and life th a t can be ac­ com plished by th e prevention of fire. R eform s come from a change of m ind and a change of m ind can only come by co n stan t m ental effort. T herefore, th in k fire prevention, ta lk fire prevention, and practice fire prevention, not only on October 9, but on th ro u g h th e year until next fire prevention day, and then s ta rt over again. Never relax your cau­ tion a g ain st th e ever present d a n ­ ger of fire on your own prem ises. In th a t way you will not only m ake it a h ab it w ith yourself but will in­ fluence others, and we will all reap th e benefit. M ake it a point on fire prevention day to critically exam ine your hom e, store, office, shop o r factory. Try to X 9 discover an y th in g or any condition th a t m ight possibly cause a fire, and above all clean up. If you find any inflam m able m aterial, rem ove it if possible or m ake it safe; you will be doing yourself a g reat favor, and then don’t stop, keep it th a t way. In Am erica we destroy by fire five tim es as m uch per cap ita as do the people of E urope. It should not be so. W e surpass in every o th er wav — we should in this.
