CENTRAL FALLS
F|REMEN MAY
GET AN ADVANCE

There are a number OF friends OF the
call men in the fire department of the
city. who. appreciating the good work
done by the boys in the past and recog-
nzing that a compensation OF $50 year
is a very small return for the service
rendered TO the city. are determined TO use
their influence with the incoming city gov
ernment to have the above amount in
creased.
In no community in the state is there
quicker or better service rendered by the
fire department than in Central Falls.
Under the efficient leadership OF Chief
William j. Lees, and by Capts. Simmons.
Carpenter, Hunt and Wilbur, of the diff
ferent hose companies, the city has a body
OF hremen second TO none.
When a man Is obliged to leave his work
in hot shop or jump from a warm bed
a. midnight and run TO from 100 10 l5O
fires a year, compensation of $75 seems
ridiculously small.
In many cases the clothes the men spoil
cost them more than the salary they re-
ceive. A larger appropriation should be
made this year for the fire department,
and these call men should be encouraged
by raise in pay.
CHIMNEY FIRE.
The firemen al the Kendall street sta
ton were called 10 "A chimney fire at 5S
