Most of Iho wonion woro young, many of them pretty, and thoir brightly col ored gowns nncl tho flowers and rib bons In their hair lent charming splashes of color to tho scono. Around three sides of the room was a denso fringe of spectators for the Jiiost part elderly. At llie farther end, on a slightly raised platform, was tho orchestra. There was something vaguely fa miliar about the leader, who was pumplnx and sawing and rocking over his old llddlo and working his musicians n Mexican with a mil iar, several negroes with banjos, Jhws' harps, accordions, etc. up .o u perfect fury of rhythm. Anno loaned forward to get a better view ot him. "Why, thoru's Shcb," sho said. Sho had rm Rotten Douglas stand ing beside her. "Who's SliebV" the latter asked curiously. Sho pointed lo Iho leader of tho orchestra, who was bowing and twisting, keeping tlmo with his head nnd his" feet, and olherwlso performing a regular dervish danco ii his attempts to work lils little band up to a tremendous climax. "How do you know he's named " Hut Douglas' (location was ill-owned lu tho climax which do aceiidcd at this juncture with forco enough almost lo rend tho moun tains asunder. "That's your real test of youth and lgor," Douglas observed, "an old-fashioned siiuaio douce!

She had heard ft nuecr aound close at hand, a suueaky lit tle sound full ot distress, and she atood with her head turned toward It.

She released herself slowly and turned full towards lilm. "Did ho tell you to say that?" she asked, her voice lightly Ironic. "Why 1 lutvo no Idea what you'ro talking about," Douglas stammered, llo was aa red as a schoolboy, and Ills usual poiso was gone. "I think you do," Anne returned still lightly. "It ho did you can tell lilm from mo that I may flirt with every other man In tho world, but not with his confidential niau Friday!" Douglas winced. Ills face went from red to purple, llo seemed on tho point of replying, but chocked himself. Anno sauntered casually toward tho dance floor, llo fol lowed. An unpleasant Interval of sllenco was terminated by a stropping giant ot n mail, who dropped a great, hairy paw on Douglas' Blioul dor, and drew him to one side. Soon Douglas spoko to Anno. "I wonder If you will excuso nic for n few moments?"

What then would have been America's record of loss by fire? Frightful enough it is in spite of the efforts of the Stock Fire Insurance companies, working through the National Board of Fire Underwriters and its departments of Building Construction, Public Fire Protection, Engineering, the Arson Bureau, Underwriters' Laboratories, and other sources and avenues of activity. The reduction of the fire waste or the loss of life by fire was not primarily an insurance problem. Insurance companies must charge for insurance on a basis sufficient to cover losses and operating expenses, regardless of how reat the losses may be. s Therefore viewing the situation from their selfish interests only they need be no more concerned than are other industries in working toward a reduction of the fire waste. V For the Public Welfare However, for the welfare of the country as a whole the 239 Stock Fire Insurance companies,.membcrs of the National Board, voluntarily undertook the task of heading up the forces opposed to the destruction of life and property by fire. The results have been encouraging. People are building better. Obvious hazards are being removed. But there is pressing need for further improvement. Future progress in this work depends largely upon the degree of co-operation ex tended by you and others in the use of available safety devices and measures, and in the elimination of the many known hazards which continue to threaten life and property. Inquiries relating to this movement and to the various services .provided for its ex tension are invited.
