Paints Tested for Fire Resistance At Local Store
Mr T A Gould of Maryland Fire Proofing and Paint Company demonstrated fire resistant paints before W T Jarman & Bro in Baltimore. A pine house and a wooden box coated with the paint were set ablaze with coal oil and a match, but the painted items remained intact after twenty minutes of burning. The experiment supported the claim that the paint resists fire. The area also reports a violent storm the prior night uprooting trees and damaging roofs, widespread rain, and fruit and corn losses. Additional notes mention local residents Archie Sapp and Noble Jarrell starting studies at Front Royal College, a throat infection outbreak, and local real estate activity with D Ayres and W T Eliott planning new dwellings.
