fine time as guests of the Volunteer Elk

ton of New York. Even the long name
Of the association which entertained, did
not deter the Fair Haven firemen from
enjoying the trip. 1t was the summer
nights festival-sixth season-of the asso-
citation at Lion park near Harlem. The
dance program consisted of twenty-eight
numbers, the first, the grand extra, being

Charles W. Hemingway the well known
ex- town assessor, and one of the assessors
of the borough of Fair Haven East, is
making the annual assessment of that Sec
ton. Last year the grand list of the Dor
ough was 81 ,1O2, 900 and he says the new
list will not vary 100000 from that
amount. He believes that the list will
show quite an increase. The sum of
$19, 600 is exempted as the property Of
veteran soldiers, there being twenty-four.
There are 1926 resident and ITO non-resi-
dent taxpayers.
Felix Chillingworth, who is interested in
the proposed ice plant, says the formation
of the company is not completed, but in O
very few days after the company is formed
ice-making can begin. One of the proper
ties offered for the new business is the old
nail shop on River street. 1t is to be hoped
that the company will start out successful
1y and that the nail shop, vacant these
many months, will be used. This is an
excellent site for the plant and the revival
of manufacturing at the old mandatory
would be encouraging Fair Haven might
have the honor of being the pioneer in the
ice manufacture just as well as not.
