If tho clo.'iiig of the watfic works meant the !oP3 (f fire alarm hea<l(|uartcrs for the community, it is evidtMit and clear¬ ly so, then as it is no'w, that a call for a special meeting should have bocn made immediately to discuss plans for a new scheme to take the place of the old.
Lot us hope and feel somewhat as¬ sured, that havinsr had their attention called to this matter, it will lead our firemen to hold special meetings to avoid repetitions of similar cases in the future, by arranging as soon as possible a practical system for sound¬ ing: fire alarms.

"You're not going to be a slacker, are you, Duwsou?" the brother of Norma f.aue asked him oae day. Earle writhed at the Insinuation. Uls Intellectual face expressed varied bat¬ tling emotions.
"You are harsh and unjust," he said In a tremulous voice. "1 could not bear the carnage that strikes ter ror to my merciful nature."
