The engineer awoke the town by the blowing of the whistle o% his engine and the citizens worked hard until the blaze was ex- tinguished. Chief Blakely of the Selma fire department received telephone mes sage from Maplesvile at o'clock this morning asking for assistance but as It would have taken several hours to go, there she did not go.

WIN. B. LAUB. JR.

Now that the closed season has been
brought aboard and everything made snug
for a three-month stay in port, it seems
that no better opportunity could be had
for planning improved boat equipments
for 1912. So many subjects could be listed
under this head that II Will be impossible
to rehearse more than one at a time, and
as It is the natural thing to do to unload
your best idea first. a scheme of flag sig
mailing is submitted for the approval OF
the boating public.
During the past month this matter has
been discussed with several club officers
and representative yachtsmen who appre-
ciate the need of some simple means OF
communication between local pleasure
boatmen, and by way of introducing the
idea the first code to be arranged is de-
scribed herewith. with the hope that be-
fore the winter passes it will be improved
by suggestions from readers OF this Sec
ton until the acme of perfection Is
reached by the time all hands are going
into commission again. At present there
IS but one flag code in use
That Is the International code, consist
ing Of twenty-seven flags. The code is
far from being simple to memoriZe and
requires so much bunting on single hal
yard for the sending of even a short mes
sage that the average motor boat or
other small yacht cannot make use OF it.
On the other hand, who would not be glad
to take UP a system of nag signaling
which he knows will be understood by
every other motor boatiSt on the river II
he discovers that an equipment of only
twelve flags is necessary and that every
flag instead of representing only one let
ter of the alphabet represents whole
sentence? OF course, lengthy converse
tons would be impossible with. this code,
but the following messages cover all the
important signals the average motor boat
list might care to use:
Flag No. 1, Am in need of assistance
2, Can you spare gasoline; 3, Come within
speaking distance; 4, Repeat your signal
s. Show me the channel; 6, Where are you
bound; Z, Can you spare ice; s, / am GO
