National Thrift Week National thrift week will be observ- »d in Piainville in conjunction with the other cities and towns of the ‘tate beginning on January 17, the inniversary of the birth of Benjamin anklin, America's greatest disciple »f thrift. Attention is called to the notice published by the local Trust Co., in today's issue of this paper to the motives that prompted the ob- servance of this week throughout the country. | False Alarm The lodal fire department was call- ed out at 10 o'clock last night by an alarm from hox three, to the local plant o fthe PlainvilieElectro Plating Co. on Forestville avenue. When the firemen arrived, it was found that | there was no fire. Investigation showed that some of ’the neighbors mistook the reflection from a furnacc as a blaze and had called the department. The firemen in the factory were stoking up the furnaces and had left the doors open. Lost Hydrants The patience of property owners is about worn out trying to keep the fire hydrants in front of their property clear of snow, because they no sooner | get through with their arduous labors that another storm somes and the state plows throw the snow from the middle of the road over the top of them again. Many have decided that it is time to have the attention of the town of- ficials called to this gondition to see if it cannot be remedied. Splendid co- operation has been shown by residents of Plainville the past few weeks, but it scems their work goes for naught. The several fires that have broken out recently in the town have given the firemen added work in clearing away from the hydrants before the hose could be attached, and serious resuits will come of it, if the hydrants are not kept clear. Loses Gun Patrolman ... W. Furry, hast~ned te the scene of the fire last nigut inj response fo the alarm, and pitehiig| [in with the fircmen, seized a shovel {end began tuv ieip clear away the lsnow from the hydrants in front of | the Plating plant.
