Let US Have System Of Fire Alarm.
"Ci:zan's" inqu ~ in regard to fire alar m
system In Monday = Issue OF the GAZETTE Is
well-timed. I noticed several months ago
In your valuable paper that the several vol
untesr fire oompanies, the Board OF Dlrec.
tors CT the fire department and the Board Of
Fire Wardens had each petlioned the hon.
orable City Council to adopt system Of fire
alarm, in such petiliors clearly demon
stras;ng to them the neeeseity and economy
10 adopting an electric FIRE alarm system as
Is used in all other ci;ies in the State OF
Virginia. Such pstitione were very wisely
referred to the finance committee who gave
tho Beard cf Fire Wa.dens an audience In
regard 10 the matter, and promised to
