A heavy iron girder has been placed over the doors, providing needed support for the upper floor. The maln floor is large and roomy and is ample lighted by a half dozen Wwindows. On both the main and upper floors the Indirect lighting system has been install- ed, the electric lamps being placed In the center of the celling. There are, also small lamps on the walls. At the top of the stairs leading to the dormitory is a locker room, which® was formerly part of the old tower room used for drying hose. Next to the locker room is a modern bath room with bath tub, wash stand and toflet. This_ was formerly a storage room. On the left of the hall leading to the dormitory is a winding stalrcase which the chief had oconstructed in order to provide a passage to the attic where the striking machinery is located. The attle has been renovated, new flooring laid, & window cut in one end and an electric light wired. All wiring, both for the lighting system and fire alarm telegraph system, has been placed in pipes and is invisible. : The dormitory Is large and well lighted and there are accommodations for six or elght cots. One end has been partition- ed off by beaver hoard to provide a room for the captain in command of the com- pany. Arrangements are being made to install a sliding pole in the dormitory’ in the rear of the captain's room. The cen- terpiece in the dormitory ceiling is an unusually atractive one. It was install- ed at the time the station was built in 1870 and much care was taken by Chief Stanton to preserve it in its entirety. The centerpiece serves as the base for the electric lamp. > At the time the renovation of the sta- tion was started there were no sewerage or water pipes in the station. These have been provided through modern plumbing. The furnace In the cellar is modern, new and compact, and is large enough to provide plenty heat for the station. The hot water heater, which has been install- ed in the cellar, was formerly in use in the Falls station. The hot water tank is of copner and unusually large. The cots and mattresses with which the dormitory is fitted up were in use at e Falls station when that station was iscontinued some months ago. Fi men at the Central station have re-enam- eled the cots and the matresses have been re-covered. Chief Stanton is making plans to paint the exterior of the station, a new side- walk and runway will be laid and a hedge and shrubs, similar to those at the central station, will be laid out on the station grounds. The money which has provided for the at the Thamesville station, has come from the $2.600 which the clty re- ceived from the sale of the Falls fire sta- tion, and which was turned over to the fire department by a city meeting last fall for the use of the department in making repairs and for pro: reopening of the Thamesville ing for the station. Tn spite of the enormous amount of work done at the Thamesville station Chief Stanton still has a small alance on hand which he savs he believes will he ample to take care of the expense o\ what work remains to be done at the station. New Pumner For Thamesville. Chief Stanton said that one of the new auto pumoers, 750 gallon capacity, will ville, with a crew be stationed in Thames: of four men, including a captain.

Myles P. Gal- vin chose his text from the ep: Sunday—the fifth after Paul to the Colossians, iii. ning Brethren 12-17, begin- DUt ve on bowels of com- vassion, kindness, humility, modesty, pa- tience; bearing with one another and forgiving one another; as even the Lord hath forgiven you, so ye aleo. It is the lack of Christian forgiveness in the world which is making nations which fought for peace still disturbed hecause of rancor and jealousy, the preacher said, while even in America there is an unAmerican spirit of hatred and bigotry. Christians should be known by their Christlike demeanor, their forgiveness of injuries. It is the mark of a follower of Christ to be patient, kinds charitable, long-suffering, not to resent or revenge evil. The mind of the dying Saviour on the cross could foresee events of all time —could know the sins of future men which would be an insult to the majesty of God. Yet it was not for the Jews of His own time alone that the Redeemer prayed, but for ali of us, when he uttered the petition, “Father, forgive them, for they know not twhat they do!" Christ did not seek to revenge the injuries re- ceived from men. When such injuries and insults smart and rankle, the remedy is prayer; down on one’s knees and pray in the words which the Redeemer himself has taught us, “Our Father, who are in heaven” Christ wasted no words in teaching this prayer to His disciples; &0 that when men ask in the Lord’s praver, “Forgive US our trespasses, as we forgive those Who trespass against us” they are sup- posed to medn exactly what they saye that if God will egdin to pardon them. they in turn resolve to pardon all whe may have injured or offended them. No matter how grave the’ insult or injury, it is the duty of man to forgive it; Christ | did not counsel this—He commanded it. God does not strike sinful men dead, or annihilate them as He might for their offenses against Him; on the contrary, He sets men the example of endiess for. glveness of thelr misdeeds, waits and yearns for their return to friendship with Him through repentance. — Tncome Tax Auditers, Notwithstanding the already large foree, the civil service commission states that the bureau of internal revenue needs several hundred more auditors ang in- .spectors for the income tax unit, and that an examination to fill these posi- tions will be held throughout the country on March 8.

JEWISH RELIEF ATMS While countless thousands of jives have been saved in eastern and southeas.- ern Burdpe through tFe efforts and gen- erosity of Americans, the real aims of the difficult task are yet to, be achieved, ac- cording to A. W, Silberberg, cha.rman for Norwich of the 140,000,000 arpeal for Jewish war sufferers toward which Con- nectiout is raising a quota of $250,000. An dthe American publie, which has al- ready given $47,000,000 for the tremen- dous work already accomplished, is en- titled to know about what has been dene, sald Mr. Silberberg. “Feeding and ciothing the sarving and helping them in their fight against fam- ine, exposure and disease is, of co-rse the first duty,” S3id he. “However, the joint distribution committee which dis- burses the funds for the various Araerican Jewish relief socleties, has broadened its ures against epidemics to establish child caring and training work and to help bring these sufferers to an ability to hek them- selves. “From the beginning of the great war— the joint distribution committee was or- ganized in December, 1914—up to very recently in most cases, any effort to car- ry on from any given points along what was formerly the Russian border was futfle &s to stay an ocean tide Emerz- ency conditions arose hers and there, and the primary duty was to give relief. Was food needed? Tt was dirested there in such uantities as could he secured. Was medical rellef called for? ~Medical wnit members were sent, o far as the lmited personnel of this group permitted. Emer- genty hospitals were established temoo- rarily in literally hundreds of places, only to move on when the lmmediates need was met. Sometimes these latter hoved under pressure as, for imstance at Kiev.

The refugee problem kept the committe's rpresentatives on the jump from the 3altic states to Southern Rumania; and child caring wark was often compelled to be as mobile as other types of service. Now 2s meace is being restored in some of theseh countries,” the syeaker con- tinued, “the work }s taking on a more perament character. Refugees are being kandled in two great classications, or- phanalzes are beinz bullt and supple- mented by schools in which ‘ndustrial training is given, medico-sanitary work is being organized in educatinal and pre- ventive lines by commymities, and rehabii_ itation work is taking the form of es- tablishment of loan organizations to help the artisan and small trader back to his feet “When It comes to refugacs, the nrob- lems are two-fold.

The task for the committee is 1o he these re- fugees prove their identity, and to care for them in concentration camps while iction permitting their repatriution is being taken. In the Ukraine the situation of the larze Jewish population is pitiabie in the extreme. Constant counter-revo- lutions, guerifla warfare and ta have resulted in the deaths of scores thousands inchuding 200,000 heads af Jewish families. The survivors are broken in body and spirif, and a great army cf them has fled from the terror and starva- tion indo the hospitable border countries. One_great pumose of the loan orzan- tions is to rebuild the homes of suffer- of which more than 30 per cent, hav been destroyed. One great grcip of lean organizations is made up of artisans’ co- aperative bedles, working throuzh a cen- tral body and ten district groups.

Never in the town’s history has swh a large crowd of citizens gathered at a court as the crowd that appeared before Justice of the Peace C. B. Montgomery in the town ha to hear 17 cases against twelve reminent citizens Tanging from 21 to S0 vears of age. Arrests were made by Sheriff Frank C. Tillinghast aided by Dog Warden Har- ry Lathrop of Brooklyn. Benjamin G. Douglass was the {own prosecutor. Owing to the excitement kicked up In town Justice Montgomery notified all present at th2 opening just what the law was as the court saw it, He carefully explained to them that the alleged viola- tions of the law by the fog warden not impounding the dogs as the law plainly di- rects did not lessen the gmiit of thos: proven guilty. He carefully explained that the alleged promises said publicy have been made by the dog warden that a plea of gulity would get them off cas was not authorized by the court and in no case whatever would the fact of a plea of guiity be consiGersd as a causs for leniency. The Jourt he Sald was a court of justice not of graft. and no exra ove: charges of cost not allowed by the law would be made in any case. The fir: case called was that of Herfbert Anderson of Sterling for owning 2 pet dog that did not have a collar and tag. Mr. Ander- son pleaded guiity. The doz had been only a short time without a cojtar -and ¢tag. The next case, that of Edward Ty- ler was called and he entered a fea of not guilty. The gramd juror calied Mr. Lathrop, the dog wardem; the first w ness. Sheriff TfifineMast was rfakins of! bis returns on the Amderson case When the dog warden bent over him and told him to put in bds charges $3 and—but he got no farther. Justice Montgomery in- stantly notified the sheriff that not one cent of costs for any one but the sherifl and his actual assistants should be added. as he did not see where a dog warden was justified in charging the man one cent when the law plainly sald “he should impound the dog ,make its owner pay $3 and also provides for the state paying the dog warden. The justice tried to get the warden to listen, to show him jegal rulings on allowing fees but it was no use. Shouting cheering and jeering at the dog warden and excited shouting of the warden demanding an adjournment until next Saturday, was too much. The sheriff could do nothing but try to quiet the crowd. Justice Montgomery finally made himself heard long endugh to ad journ court until next §aturday at two o'clock. "Recelve Their Diplemas. Two Norwich young women, Miss Ca- ington, D.

Pain d TOLL BRIDGE RECEIPTS SMALL LAST MCNTH Receipts from toll on the Thames river bridge show about the lowest, if not the lowest figure in the history of the ‘bridge during the month of January.
