Mr. Arthur Arrington,

Dour kS!r:
I thought it might be pleasing for
you to know that your Fire Extinguisher
put out n carbide fire for us almost in
stantly, and prevented what promised
to he a destructive fire. Please let me
know the price per dozen for these ma
i hint's.

'■»» November fl, 1009.
This If tn certify that at the recpnt
Firemen's National Convention at Grand
Hanids, Mich.. I saw exhaustive and
elaborate demonstrations of “Pyrene." the
i new Chemical Fire Extinguisher from
New York.
After witnessing these tests, which
were the severest to which we had ever
seen any hand device subjected, such as
various combinations of gasoline oil with
carbide, cotton waste, excelsior, etc., we
were compelled to admit that “Pyrene’*
stands in u class to itself.
IN retie being a non-conduotor is par.
ticuiarlv applicable in all forms of electn#
fires, that so far only sand has bee*
found to control.
For the above reasons 1 do not hesitate
to recommend them most highly for ao£
kind of an incipient fire.
Very truly,
