The numerous sprinklers will be located throughout the buildliigs at 20 foot intervals and are so .sensitive to heat that when the temnerature reaches the danger point the water is automatically turned on the fire. This system is wonderfully ingeni- ous and complete. It operates on couiblilation of air and water.
