PRICELESS RELICS
OF OLD FIRE DAYS
IN EXEMPTS HOME
All Sorts Of Interesting Things
in Centre Street Lodge Rooms
Make Unique Exhibit.

Perhaps few Newarkers know that
in the lodge rooms of the Exempt Fire
mems Association in Centre street is
one Of the most interesting and COM
plete collections of firemen's relics in
this country.
The position of honor is taken up
by a perfect working model of old

perfectly constructed that it will send

mans trumpet, nearly six feet high,
which was presented to the Newark
Exempts by the firemen OF South Nor
walk, Conn. Around the room are fire
helmets from every fire company that
Newark has ever had. They are all
styles n sizes, from the old high hat
with the rolling brim of 1910 with the
company number painted on the band,
up to the present helmets.
On the walls are honorable dis
charges from the fire department of
former mayors, sheriffs and public of
fcials of all kinds. Most OF, the relics
are priceless and in case of loss could
never be replaced. They are particu-
larly interesting because they have
been the property of men who lave
made Newark and New Jersey what il
is today.
This museum, although it is not
called one, surely deserves the title, and
will soon have a new resting place, in
the new firemen's home, on Springfield
avenue and Fourteenth street. the cor
ner-stone of which will be laid on
June IA.
Great preparations are being made
for his event. Every fire company in
the East has been invited to attend
with bands and apparatus. and it is
estimated thar the population of New
ark will be doubled on that day. The
committee in charge of the celebration
is: Louis Hauser. chairman; Alexan-
der J. Valentine, William. r.. Price
David E. Benedict, Charles Coughlin
John Vandyne, Thomas Watt, William
Schmitt, William Dougal, John Smith
Charles Hamburger and Charles E
! McCraith.
The exempts have been in their pres
ent home for over thirteen years, and
while the new one will be far larger
and more cemmodious. the old boys
who used to answer the calls before

Which Is Received With
Applause.

terday before the Public School Prin-
cipals' Association at its annual meet

cipals having schools in that district.

ance of $707.18.
