State of Connecticut BY HIS EXCELLENCY JOHN H. TRUMBULL GOVERNOR rur lantafin it IRE, man’s friend when under control but his | enemy when uncontrolled, continues to take its ºzº toll in the loss of home, loss of employment, and &\lkº) loss of life. This increasing loss can in a large measure be prevented by the exercise of ordinary care. Realizing this and also that the correction for the waste by fire lies in sound education, the General Assembly has required that a day be set aside in order that a specific opportunity for the consideration of this problem may be had. Therefore, in compliance with the Statutes, I desig- nate Thursday, October 9th, next, as 3fire Hreuerttiut ſlag and I earnestly recommend that thoughtful attention be given on that day in our schools, our places of employ- ment, our homes, and through the press to the study and teaching of fire prevention. Given under my hand and seal of the State at the Capitol, in Hartford, this twenty-fifth day of September, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and thirty and of the independ- ence of the United States the one hundred and fifty-fifth.
