The meet- ing authorized the district committee to take such steps as they see fit re- garding the measure of providing the district with fire apparatus. pardon C. Rickey, & member of the district committee, stated this morn- ing that the committee will probably arrange for the purchase of a hose cart for Berlin street. It will also consider the proposition of buying, in conjunction with the Kensington dis- trict, a fire engine, which would be used in the entire town. May Have Fire Engine et This move on the part of the dis- trict is a step ahead for Berlin. For many years the need for ample fire protection has been telt. Citizens of the town have raised the cry that Rerlin needed a fire apparatus and the town was getting too big to de- pend upon the New Britain fire de- partment. if a fire engine was hought, it is pot known where the fire house would be located. Some residents have said that the lot at the corner of Hchool strest and the Farmington road, where the billboard now stands is an {deal spot. This would not please Kensington people, as it would be too | tar away from their district. Some have advocated a plot on the old Ber- 1in falr grounds. The same committee was elected at the meeting last evening, Pardon C. Rickey, Irank L. Wilcox and Francis Deming. Garner Goodwin was ap- pointed treasurer, collector and su- perintendent.
