Excerpt from The Avoidance of Fires
The conservation of resources is a worthy national ideal, and the reduction of fire waste is an important factor in such conservation. The abolition of poverty is brought one step nearer by the avoidance of the vast loss due to this cause. Public sentiment is becoming a force in dealing with fire prevention: thirty states now have the office of State Fire Marshal and seven states require that the public schools give instruction in the prevention of fires.
