'rganized icK *d County Fire Prevention ?J Work Ceitters r? ! About Schools' Annual Fire Prevention week! was held this week with features of the observance centering around Columbia city schools. Last week, fire prevention literature was distributed to all cit> at-hooK bv Pin, Chief A. McO. Marsh of the Columbia fire depart nient, and during this week surprise fire drills were held in all schools. A committee composed oi"CtaiUl P. Davis and W. \V. Philbriek, and Chief Marsh in an advisory capacity, has been in charge of making plans for the observance in Columbia. , * A report from the LL S. chamber ~oT commerce says that public schools throughout the nation as well as in Columbia come in foi special attention duringThe observ ance of Fire Prevention week. This is because it is importnat to teach pupils the necessity of guarding the buildings in which they spend so much of their time and to mold their habits so they will practice care throughout their lives, h guarding against the^dtni^EFrs of > Tires. More than 20,000.000 children ' are housed in the public schools of the United States. No fundamental educational problem is greatei than the safety of these children For the majority of them, attendance at school is compulsory by law. Consequently their persona' safety is dependent in large de gree upon steps taken to make the structures safe for their ocei paney In order to safeguard school -.children in Columbia, fire drillshave been practiced for several years, and planned carefully to clear buildings completely ia case of emergency. In fire drills in Columbia schools, every person is required to leave?pupils, teachers, principals, cafeteria employes, nurses, janitors, and even visitors are : required to go quickly from the building. Some suggestions from the Na tional Fire Waste council, which have already received attention b\ authorities in Columbia: "Fire brigades or fire marshalt 1 may be appointed from among the , ,older pupils. It is their dutv to supervise the removal of crippled 1 children and those of the lowei 1 grades. Fire drills should b?* con ducted without prc-vit>tt*-irrttmtmrement, the only exception being thv first drill of the school .year. "Basement classroom, unless, pro vided with direct outside exits, are dangerous and their continued use is inadvisable. Likewise it is un" safe to have classrooms above the second floor of school buildings ol non^ire-Tesistant construction and" not equipped with automatic sprink lers and other protective appliances. "It is recommended that exit doors and classroom doors open outwardly, and that during school hours they be kept unlocked and 1 free from obstruction. If desks it; < classrooms and auditorium seats are firmly secured to the floor the possibility's of congestion and panic will be increased. "If such simple precautions as these are taken there is -bound to be a decrease in the number ol sebool fire tragedies."
