years continuOusly.
tu addition to the school signals has
oaaG made, in the form of a signal for
one session. This is like the Others one
.Jug blast from the whistle of the Mason
manufacturing Co, and is to blow at ii
clock, in case the authorities decide
;hat one session for the day IS advisable.
isaring this signal at IL O'clock, every
1ody concerned will know that it means
only one session for the day in the grade
schools of the village. In the high
school the matter will be left to the
Judgment of the principal. So far this
winter there has been no use of the
school signals, but in case there should
be, remember that they are as follows:
One long blast at A. NJ. means no
school. III conditions should improve
later, a blast at 1890 p. NJ. means an
afternoon session. IL the schools are in
session, a blast at ii NJ. means one
session for the day.

non is good cheer at the table, good
bread is always thing aimed at. On
This occasion the menu included roast
chicken, baked potatoes, boiled onions,
hot rolls, sugared doughnuts, cheese
straws, lemon pie, chocolate pie, coffee,
tea, together with pickles and other &C
cessories dear to the feminine palate.
Every member of the club in town was
present, with two guests, Mrs. A. w.

Jolly party of twenty who sat down at
he tables. After supper three tables
we're filled at bridge, and the whole
evening was a very pleasant one.
For the first time in nearly fourteen
months, we had fire alarm last Tues
cay, but the damage was not extensive.
Between 10 and II o'clock in the fore
noon, the rear chimney in the house OF
George Hussey, on High Street near
Market Square, burned out. w. A.
Porter, first assistant engineer, was noti-
lied and went there immediately, and
Chief Engineer Bowker, although sup
posed to be laid up with a scalded leg,
vas soon after at hand. The chimney
was very foul and got very hot, so that
the wood work around il was more or
ieSs burned, and men were working on
il for nearly an hour. After few min
uses an alarm was given, and one hose
pung was brought up, but there was no
occasion for its use, as few ladders
and chemical extinguishers were all the
apparatus necessary. The house was
Scnrched little and smoked up con-
siderable. There was no excitement,
and some right around the Square didn't
know where the FIRE was until il was all
over. II the fire had started in the
night, the story might have been longer.
