Retirements from the service OF
three captains and one lieutenant, the
placing in commission of four new
companies and the installation of a
search light company necessitated the
many changes made, and with these
changes the value and strength OF
the Newark fire department as a
source of protection to life and prop
erty have, in approximately one
week, jumped forward to a remark
able degree.
Merit Men.
Every member of the department
advanced today is a merit man and
each has figured in deeds other than
the ordinary work of fire-fighting
that called for meritorious mention
by the commissioners, such as the
saving of human life and daring res

All these movements are due to an
order for assignments and transfers
promulgated by Chief Engineer Pau
j, Moore, shortly before noon today
