Mount Street, Swansea, for South Wale*, TWO-MINUTE INTERVIEWS (n..d. “ Why Pyrene ? ” said the Colliery Manager. “ Because there is no other Fire Extinguisher so particularly adapted to the unique conditions and needs of Mines and Collieries.” “These sweeping generalities make me tired! Let’s have hard facts.” ‘■What you call a ‘sweeping generality’ is a hard fact. Hundreds of Colliery Owners know it, and I can prove it.” “Go ahead—two minutes and I’m off.” “ To begin with, look at your risks. They are quite out of the ordinary. The confined spaces of a Mine frequently make a fire very difficult to get at. As users of Electrical Power you are subject to Electrical Fires. There is also serious danger from coal gas, coal dust, oil, cotton waste, grease, and possibly petrol, tar, chemicals and other highly inflammables.” “What’s the matter with water and sand ?” “Everything! Water won’t put out highly inflammables, and you daren’t apply it to an electrical fire. If you use sand for the latter, it must be perfectly dry. Even if you succeed in extinguishing the fire, more than likely you will ruin the apparatus to which sand is applied.” “ Pyrene will extinguish all kinds of incipient fires, however inflammable the material involved. It is a non-conductor of electricity, and is acknowledged by Electrical Experts as the most efficient machine for Electrical Fires. It will injure nothing, destroy nothing—EXCEPT FIRE.” “ You have mentioned water and sand. How are you going to get it to the seat of the fire ? It’s bulky and very heavy. S-ipposing a fire has started in the pit. How can a man carry buckets of water or a cumbrous fire extinguisher through the narrow, low passages he may have to traverse ? I could put a Pyrene in each of my jacket pockets and one under each arm and reach the outbreak at top speed and have FOUR POWERFUL FIRE EXTINGUISHERS ready for instant service —each of which has an extinguishing capacity equal to that of a machine many times its weight and size.” Over One Million Now in Use.
