SIf Women Were Guardians of Public Safety HOW many scenes such as this would occur ? Over ninety per cent of the destructive fires in this country are discovered in their incipiency -while they are in the vital-five-minute stage. If women were guardians of public safety, how many buildings would lack the simple means of extinguishing a fire during the vital-five minute period-that critical period before the fire department is brought into action? Every ten minutes a $5,000 home-or $5,000 worth of home property -is destroyed by fire in the United States-due chiefly to man's pro crastination in providing an extinguisher of incipient fires -efficient, easily operated and of convenient size.
