NEW AUTO FIRE TRUCK Delivored Saturday—Meets Many Try- ina Tests With Readiness and Facility. >utnam’s new automobile fire truck arrived here Saturday and was an of Ject of special interest for man: zens and especially the member: the fire department. Soon after rival it was unloaded from the representatives of the builders made ready for the first of the demon- stration runs which proved it to be all that has been ciaimed for it by the manufacturers. The demonstration runs fook the car to various parts of the city, over all kinds of going (none of it very good in January). the hardest test probably being the climb up Oak hill, via Wil- kinson street, to Lhe water tower that crowns this highest point within the city limits. With 15 passen chine easily ey of rs aboard, the ma- made this exira ha climb-—and this om_ practically a standing start. All kinds of tests that are apt to come to the machine in reg- ular service were applied and the ve- bicle demonstrated that it is capable of responding to cvery reasonable de- mand that may be made upon it. The piece of apparatus, costing the city $5.500. is one of the finest owned DY department in Connecticut. Mayor Archibald Macdonald, Chief Joseph Maynard of the fire department, Alderman John B. Byrne of the com- mittee that had the purchase of the truck in charge, local firemen and members of the fire departments in Webster and Danieison were among those who enjoyed the experiences of test trips in the machine, which was run to about every part of the cif On speed tests it was tuned up to 33 ple’s_societies of Norwich by the Y. |3, C."A. at their rooms in Norwich, on Tuesday evenin: and | a lap had been run. Halpin was sec- ond, and he eet sail for the OWmpic miles an hour, casy work for the pow- erful moter of (0 horse power, which Is capable of developing the machine’s speed to 53 miles an hour, but it won't be allowed to do that here. It is easiiy poesible for the machine to reach any polnt within the city limits with:n three minutes from the time it leaves fire headquarters in Union square. The new piece of apparatus has not vet been officially accepted by .he city, but it is expected that this formality will be taken carc of during the pres- ent week. g As soon as the machine is officiall, accepted by the city the manufacturers’ agents here will begin the instructions of the local drivers and will give them thorough instruction in the care and operation of the machine. The machine is built to carry 1000 feet of hose in addition to all the other equipment that goes with such a v hicle. It has a_complete chemical out- fit, places for bars, nozzles, acid bot- tlés, ladders, bars, extinguishers, etc. etc. The chemical tank, set forward hoids 40 gallons. A big electric searchlight is fitted t the machine, this light being of suffi- clent power to blaze a path of bril- liancy through any street or highway on. the darkest night The acquisition of this machine puts Putnam in the forefront of the cities of the state in keeping its depertment up to date In equipment. The arrival of the truck has stirred the members of the fire department with special enthusiasm and they are anxious to become familiar with the valuable plece of apparatus, which they are sure to give cvery care and attention that it may be of utmost ser- vice when needed for the protection of the property in the city.
