The Board of Directors has been considering the purchase and distrib- ution of fire extinguishers and metal ;park arrestors among the policy hol- ie:rs but thought it night be a matter for di cu-sion at th=e meeting. An an.alye f results over a period= of four y has been made by a Com- pany which shows that in that time. out of a total of 1,476 fires, 1272 or 86.189- were put out; 104 were Checked and 100 failed.

In doing so there is n: thought of in- timidating the members into a strict- er eoeripliance with their policy coir ditions, .but it is confidently felt that a bettor co-operation voluntarily will "esrtlt from an understanding of the matter. Perhaps the most frequent of these is the failure to report the less as specified in the policy, within 24 hours df'. the storm during which it is alleged to have occured; very often Inc to delay in the, finding of the an- mal's caes. Notwithstanding the Company freedom from liability un- der such, circumstances, an Inspector is usuall'" sent out, only to find per- haps a b 'e11y .decomposed carcass, on which it• to impossible to detect any evidenceeof n=arks of lighning.
