Abstract
THE subject of Fire Prevention is somewhat curiously manifold. The best mode of securing permanent peace is to prepare continually for war, and the most likely way to prevent fire is to have every means of combating it in perfect readiness, so that at the earliest symptom of danger immediate steps can be taken to reduce the temperature. To secure this end knowledge is necessary, and where there is real knowledge there is not much difficulty.
