PREVENT FIRES—CLEAN UP
The local fire of a few days ago brings to mind this is
the time of the year when much more than perfunctory
observance should be made of fire hazards. This is the
season of the year when fires are most likely to occur, and
the best preventative measure is a thorough cleaning up
of basements, cellars and furnace rooms. Just now a
little foresight may obviate possible future suffering and
financial loss if proper precautions are taken to make
things safe for the coming cold season when open fire
places, furnaces and stoves will be hurriedly put into com
mission.
Constant burning of coal or wood throughout the
winter months of last year may have choked up flues and
chimneys necessitating the services of a “sweep.” Chim
neys should be swept, not only as a measure of safety but
to provide sufficient draft for the furnace, insuring pro
per combustion and more heat.
There is hardly a home in Seward where the cellar
or furnace room has not be cluttered up during the sum
mer with trash in one form or another. The garbage wa
gons stand ready to remove this stuff and cooperation on
the part of the householder will not only aid in fire preven
tion but remove the possible causes of disease. Dusting
off walls that have become begrimed and the application
of a generous coating of whitewash are measures toward
good sanitation that should not be ignored.
COLD FIGURES WILL WIN
.
Anchorage protests over the removal orders from j
Washington of the Anchorage office of the United States!
district attorney office to Seward will avail nothing for i
the present administrations pet 'hobby is economy. There I
has been no guess work in presenting figures to the de- j
partment of justice at Washington showing the large |
saving, effective by this move.
If Anchorage can prove in black and white that an
assistant district attorney's office will save money by be
ing located in Anchorage instead of in Seward, that jus
tice will be impeded, as they say, and cause no end of in
convenience to those having business to transact with the
assistant district attorney, by this removal order, Anchor
age need not worry..
Anchorage lays claim to being the most important
point in the third division. We take exception to that
statement! * '
