That the voters of the borough be- lieve in_the policy of encou home industries was demonstrated by the action: taken in the special bor- ough meeting, when an improved sys- tem of fire alarm was under consid- eration. The Loper system, which has been in use in the borough for sev- eral years, and the first to be installed by Mr. Loper, ‘the originator of the system, and which since then has been so much improved that but very lit- tle of the original plan remains, was the one adopted. By this action the value of the improved system is rec- ognized and the inventor, a resident of| the borough, receives the endorsement of his home people. Warden Cornelius B. Crandall presided at the meeting and Charles B. States was the clerk. On motion of Dr. James H.. Weeks, the plans and specifications of the fire system, approved by the officers of the fire department, was accepted, . The sym of $1,064.44 was appropriated for t:'lx installation and care of the system for three years. Then the subject matter was given over to a committee composed of Assistant Chief Enslneer Charles B. Main, Dr. James H. Weeks and Erastus D. Chesebro. Emn new positive non-interference firm alarm boxes will be installed and the present whistle and motive power will_be retained. ‘wire used will be No. 12 triple braided and galvan- ized. The current will be provided by a 32-cell battery and guaranteed for five years. State Has No Funds to Continue the Highway.

This extension can be made at a cost of $6.000, but the state high missioner has no funds avail that purpose. So nothing can be done Rong that line without state appro- priation and the legislature does not convene until January, 1918. Town Court Cas Deputy Judge Lorenzo D.
