I | in Hardware j j PROCLAMATION At no time in the history of our country has the menace of fire been greater and the preservation of our resources more necessary. Activities of hostile incendiaries threaten in many parts of the country, causing destruction of needed supplies of food stuffs and other vital staples. These fires will strike at the foundation of national power and wealth by the elimination of resources. Fire causes enormous direct destruc tion of cotton, lumber, grain and other foodstuffs, as well as a large variety of other materials essential to the prosecution of the war. Fire criples productive industry engaged upon war orders to a far greater extent than is generally realized. While causing a vast impairment in America's fighting efficiescy, fire loss is, in the main, unnecessary. The loss cqn be materially t lessened if each citizen will do his part * towards seeing that precautionary measures are adopted-for his premises. The! burning of your property through j negligence or carelessness may not ; only cause you loss and inconvenience j but the fire may spread to your neigh I toor's property also. Fire prevention, j therefore, becomes a patriotic duty j of every citizen. The cooperation of newspapers, civic bodies, and particularly school systems, will contribute powerfully to this end. The annual loss by fire to the state of South Caro lina is approximately One Million, Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand ) Dollars. In view of the importance of the matter, and as a means of arousing !; our citizens to the magnitude of the fire waste and induce them to take | more interest in the subject of fire |1 prevention, T, Richard I. Manning, I Governor of the State, by virtue of authority in me vested, do hereby des ignate and proclaim Saturday, November 2, 1918 as FIRE PREVENTION. DAY and urge that ou 4his day all citizens ' inspect their property and give per- j sonal attention to the removal therefrom of all rubbish and debris; that; chimneys, flues and heating appara- I tus be put in order; that the mayor of j each town and city toy proclamation j ask thee ooperation of its citizens in j having a thorough inspection of all j premises .in their respective muriici- . nnlitips. to the end that the number of fires may be lessened and the loss- j es therefrom, checked. .(Great Seal)?In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and ! caused the great seal of the State of \ South Carolina to be affixed at Colum IJ l>ia on this the twenty-third day of j ( October, in the year of our Lord nine i 1 1 teen hundred and eighteen. j' Richard I.
