The frequent calls recently upon the fiire department of the Westerly Fire district to fires not in the limits of the district, has raised the dual ques- tion as to the policy of leaving the district partially unprotected and whether the district should be called upon to pay the expense for out of the district calls. Last Sunday one of the motor-drawn trucks was called three times to fires not within the district and at a cash expense to the tax-pay- ers of the fire district of $30, to say nothing of the cost of oil gasolene, tho wear on the tires and on the ap- paratus. ‘The driver receives $10 for each yun, a decidedly economical plan for the operation of the machine, where the fire alarms within the dis- trict will average about one a month. The fires of Sunday were all brush fires and the local apparatus —was therefore of no value to cope with the blaze, there being no water system out- side the fire district—no vdrants with which to connect hose. So ail the firemen could do was to join the assembled fire fighters ang assist in beating out the blaze. So the call for assistance could be had by a call upon any established grange as well as up- on the central fire house and without lessening the protection in the West- erly Fire district, znd placing the cost upcn the parties benefited. arther an upon the tax payers of the fire Lccal Laconics. Thus far March has been a month of sunshine. 8 Dog licenses will expire with present month. The public schools will close Friday for the spring vacation. The Rhode Island Jitney Owners’ association has been formed, but not incorporated. Several Westerly members attended a meeting of Palestine Temple, Mystic Shrine, in Providence, Monday night.

Rooke, well known in Westerly has been reelected presi- dent of the Providence Woman's Christian Temperance union. Roger Crandall, the oldest graduate of Alfred university, died Saturday at his home in Little Genessee, New York, age 95 years. He fas the fath- er of Ira B. Crandall, a leading mer- chant of Westerly. The grass fires were of so frequent occurence in Bradford, Sunday and Monday that the chief of police was summoned, not to extinquish the fires, but to remove the cause. Warnings were issued but no arrest made. Fannie A. Tenny, of New London, is the defendant in’ a suit for $10,000 filed in the Rhode Island superior court by Edward M. Holmes, of Bar- Tington, on a book account, This claim is but one of the counts and the plain- tif has reserved the right to file ad- ditional counts. Louis Lachapelle, of White Rock school, and William Webster, of West- erly, received honorable mention, and Marion Arnold, Raymond _Champlin, Theresa Ferare, Freda Goldberg, Irene McKenna, Helen Nye, Gerald Payne, and Peter, Priori, of Westerly, were prize winners in the School of = Arts Guild contest.

And that's the number of American men and women, who are publicly praising Doan’s Kidney Piils for relief from backache, kidney and bladder ills. They say it to friends. They tell it in the home papers, Norwich people are in this chorus. Here's a Norwich case: Mrs. Jared Hewitt, Palmer St., Nor- wich, says: “For several months I was bothered by pains across the small of my back and from other symptoms, I know that my kidneys were at fault, I got a box of Doan’s Kidney Pilis at N. D. Sevin & Son's Drug Store and soon after using them, the pain in my back disappeared and my health im- proved.” Price G0c, all dealers.

These passages from a letter cently received herc will be of intere to_many of cur readers: I have read with account of Gen. Harland’s death ned in the newspaper which yvou indly sent me last week. I cannot remember when I did not know Ned Harland. In my childhood he was kind to the little oy He was about four myself and il later years after I settled in Columbus, no one greeted me more cordially than he did on the occasion of my annual visits in Nor- wich. Only last summer 1 went twice up on the hill and joined him in a very pleasant talk about old times and old people familiar to each of us. I remember perfectly his sister Eliz- abeth who was older than he was, and particularly his sister Ruth who was about a year younger than myself. I remember perfectly what a grand thing I thought it was when he en- tered Yale college. He graduated in 1853 the year I came to Columbus. ‘When the war of the rebellion broke out he went as a captain in the hun- dred days service and when he was mustered out he recruited a three years regiment in which our brother, Tom Marvin Waite, and other young men enlisted. Nothing of importance that he has done since has been un- known to me and I have always talken 2 pride in his career because he was a neighbor of yours and a kind friend of mine. As a citizen he was a strong, good man and the community in which he spent his long life was the better for his influence upon it. He was, I be- lieve, the last of those who were up- town boys when I was a child, and his death leaves a void in my associa- tions which cannot be filled. P.W.
