GIFTS TO VERMONT TOWNS.

In Wallace Robinson of Boston, the
town of Reading finds friend who is
willing to lift off the town the load
lof building a. new town hall. Mr.. Rob.
Iinson's interest and his loyalty are to
be commended; and it is hoped that the
ambition to do for itself will not be
stripped from the town which accepts
lhis generous contribution. The only
drawback to the acceptance of such gifts
Iis that it may develop among the people
of the community feeling that they
can depend on some kind friends; it
jTobs them of certain Independence.
So it is up to Reading to combat any
such tendency as they tomorrow accept
MIR. Robinson's gift. We speak of this
in general way, not being acquainted
with the spirit of the people of that old
and respected community; therefore, we
trust that no particular offense will be
taken if these lines come to the notice of
any OF Readings residents.

BARRE,s QUIET PROGRESS

The city of Barre has been making
quiet progress during the past year,
and il is in a position to advance even
more rapidly during the year to come
Let calamity howlers howl, we have
here city which is going through that
solidifying, process that follows very
rapid growth. That is why the more
visible evidences of development are not
noted more conspicuously at the present
time; but that does not mean lack OF
progress, You may be assured. Barre
is fixing out" reducing the evidences of
sharp angles in its physical aspects and
adding to its, attraetiveness. Residents
who look upon the conditions from day
TO day and week to week may not
see the evidences of municipality com
ing to maturity, but others who make
occasional visits are prompt to note the
changes for better in the city. We have
in mind great many features which
show steady advancement and fewer
than usual that are disquieting to a
wellwisher of the city. The balance is
much in favor of progress.

OPPOSES AUTO FIRE TRUCK.
A Citizen Advances Three Reasons
Against Proposed Purchase.
Barre, VT, Jan. 80, 1912.

Barre, VT, Jan. 80, 1912.
Editor of the Barre Daily Times,
Dear Sir: Through your columns
wish to express my opinion as tax
payer relative to the purchase of IN
auto fire truck for the city OF Barre.
| am opposed to the purchase OF one
at this time for the following reasons:
First. Auto fire trucks are in the ex-
detrimental stage Of development. ANY
well. Uniformed automobile man can tell
YOU that radical changes are being made
in the manufacture OF the trucks that
are on the market to-day, and they VIII
tell you that more changes will be made
for few years to come, until standard
machine Is developed. The city OF Barre
j. not in a position to do the expert
menting.
Second. The city of Barre does not
need an auto FIRE truck Our present
fire department, with its excellent equip
ment. affords ample fire protection for
our city. Our fire records since its in
stallation prove this statement. No city
in New England of the size of Barre
has better fire protection. If our fire
chief will only direct all his efforts 60
maintaining the present efficiency Of the
department, we need fear but very little
in regard to fires.
Third. The city ought not to pur-
chase a truck now from financial point
of view. A man would be considered
very unwise who would mortgage his
house buy an automobile, and yet
that is hat a majority of our city fla
theirs have practically voted to do. They
are really taking money from the sink
ing fund tax, and lowering the appro-
priations for permanent work in otncN
departments in order to purchase this
truck. They point to 1928 tax and
tell us that we can afford fire truck
and that they have made provision for
il in the estimated expenditures for the
coming year, and in the face of all this
have lowered our tax rate five cents.
This looks good. but it is not true. Our
tax rate for this year is really higher
than it was last year. We are paying
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1912-01-31

less but are getting considerably less
for our money They have lowered the
sinking fund tax by ten cents and have
decreased the appropriations for perma-
nent work in other departments by eight
cents, total of eighteen cents; and
they have lowered our taxes five cents,
which makes net increase of thirteen
cents in our tax, when we take into
consideration what we are getting for
our money.
/ would suggest to the city council
that before they purchase a fire truck
they give an opportunity for the citizens
of Barre to vote upon this question al
a city meeting. am
Respectfully yours,
A Citizen.

New Facts About Eczema.

For years eczema was thought to be
