Oh, what I would do to have that
The fire box location card. One steel mill I used to be a firefighter in used a system like this. It was pretty cool. I wonder if the old ticker tape punch out real is still around this place?
Maybe it was for children with TB, all the labeled material seems to indicate that.
Am I the only one that finds it odd to have to "notify the office by telephone" if the place caught fire? I think the phone would be the last thing on my mind at that point.
"pull hook way down and let go"

You'd think "let go" would be obvious, considering there's, you know, a FIRE...
I love how nonchalant they are about the latter part. "Also notify office by telephone." As if they thought about that at the end of writing up the notice just before it was sent to be printed, and they sighed and realized they probably should put that on there.

Also, can you imagine standing inside a burning building, KNOWING that part of it is on fire but desperately trying anyway to call "the office".. And then not getting through because someone was already on the line.
what if the office is on fire ?
What if the telephone is on fire?
lol, burn baby burn
