spent by the pupils in practicing but
they acquitted themselves very cred
itably. The need of a new schoo.
building was made very evident 10 the
audience in the shaking of the whole
building when the audience showed
its appreciation by applauding, also
in the sitting atmosphere and in their
inability to hear in the front of the
house what was being said on the
stage owing to the faulty construc-
ticn of the building. During the eve
ming the ladies of the s. I. A. sold
ice cream. peanuts and sodawater and
were so literally patronized that every
thing was sold out long before the
crowd were done clamoring for more.
Friday morning there were good
~ number of the patrons present to
see the children receive their certiff-
Gates OF promotion, and bid the teach
ers goodbye.

felt a great pride in our school and
when we heard the averages read and
learned how many were above ninety,
we felt an additional pride.

Mr.. Brown of Christ church reached
us too late to present the diplomas
to the four girls CT the eighth grade.
At Miss Brewers request, Mr.. John
Gates presented them in a few we'll
chosen remarks. In her closing ad-
dress Miss Brewer made an earnest
plea in behalf of the boys--urging
the parents to- see to 1t that their
boys were kept in school along with
the girls that they might go out to
their life-work as well equipped men
tally as their sisters. She also begged
them to cultivate the habit of prompt
ness in the pupils by compelling them
to be in their places promptly at the
opening of school each day. It did us
good to hear her say that she had not
one dull pupil in her room this year.
At twelve O'Clock dinner was served.
after which there was a general So

CHIEF DAY ON
FIRE DEPARTMENT
Tells EpWOrthians MOrristOwn'S
is a Christian One.

That Morristown has Christian
fire department and since its organ
ization has had a Christian man as
its chief was the assertion of Chief
Wilbur F. Day, jr., before "a meeting
of the Epworth league in the Meth
odist Episcopal church Sunday even
ing. Chief Day spoke on Helping
Humanity" He drew some moral
lessons from the fire department and
its work, saying that fire was like
habit or sin, it started as a thread
and grew into a cable. ALI is we'll
with man, Chief Day declared, until
sin enters his life and SO it is with
the home, all is well until a fire
starts. Firemen he declared had the
reputation of being a bad set but
Morristown has a department of
Christian men. He was proud to be
the chief not because it gives him the
opportunity of wearing a 1eather he'll
met and BRASS buttons but because it
gives him the opportunity to help hui
manity. The fire department makes
preparation to fight fire and so must
people fortify themselves to fight
Ievil, Chief Day, declaring that some
of the means to this end were the
churches and other Christian socl-
cites.
Taking up the practical side of the
fire department Chief Day cautioned
his auditors against permitting rub
bish to accumulate in or about their
homes and also against having oily
rags or explosives about the house.
Bonifires he cited as a source of pos
sible conflagrations, Morristown has
just spent $50, 900 for the modernizing
of its department giving it greater
efficiency. With the advent of the
|automobiles in the department he de-
clared it behooved the householders
when they discover a fire to keep
cool and to get the alarm in as soon
as possible so that the fire may be
checked in its incipiency. The chief
told how to turn in an alarm from a
street box and offered to teach any
one who did not thoroughly under
stand. He told of the great good
done by the Morristown Women's
Christian Temperance union in pro-
yiding hot coffee plant for the fire
men. The men needed such a stimu-
liant when fighting fire during the
winter and he asked those present if
in time of fire in their neighbor-
hood if they would prepare coffee for
the firemen.
