FIRE PLUGs.-This being the first part
Of the month, when the fire companies
are holding their regular monthly meet
ings, it would be we'll for each company
to appoint committees to interview the
Commissioners in regard to payment of
bills for setting the fire-plugs in order SO
as they will not freeze this winter. This
is about as necessary es the transaction
of any business. 1t would only require
a few loads OF manure and some one to
see the plugs properly packed to fix the
plugs In good order for this winter. In
addition to this il will be necessary to
keep lighted fires in the two hose. houses
to prevent the hose from freezing and
being unservicable. As there is and will
be money in the Fire Department Fund
these things should not be neglected.
SUNDAY SCHOOL CONCERT. There is
some talk among the ladies and gentle
interested in Sunday school matters
about getting up concert some time
during the first part of December for the
benefit of the Sunday school and for the
purpose of furnishing and having a
Christmas tree on Christmas eve. II
outside shows or performances do not
absorb all the loose money in the town
the concert will take place, but if they do
a committee of ladies will 90 around
soliciting donations for the purpose
mentioned. We would like to see the
concert come off as we think it would be
well patronized under any circumstances.
