motor cycle was purchased for the police department and through the medium of this equipment it is ex- pected that better patrol service in the outlying section will be obtained and the facility is afforded for quick service on hurry calls. This purchase was not estimated in making up the appropriation for the year.
 "The department was called upon to patrol the southeastern section of the city, creating an expense thereby which had not been estimated in the appropriation for the year.
 Appropriations were made for the purchase of horses for the police patrol and a pen punching register for. the police signal system. Neither purchase was made and the money is returned to the general treasury.
 "The estimates for the ensuing year provide for the purchase of a motor police patrol and ambulance to. re- place the horse drawn equipment and also to purchase uniform type of re- volver equipment for the patrolmen. Both matters will receive the immedi- ate attention of this board.
 '"The appointment of the additional patrolmen on the regular force will be made at an early date.

 Been Decidedly Successful.

we recommend that the horse-draWn apparatus be retained to be used m cases of unusual weather such as was experienced last Winter-the ike or which was not encountered pe1ore Ill over twenty years. The horses, however, could be sold. With the horse drawn equipment in reserve 1t would be possible in the short period the heavy snow might remain to bring in horses temporarily.
 'The complete motor1zat1on will save the cost of equipment in about three years through economy as we show below:
New Britain herald., 1914-04-15

''In addition to the economy fact that should appeal to the property owners is that practically another piece of apparatus can be brought into Service-namely city service truck. New Britain's ladder service with a single ladder company is not ample. The larger aerial would an swer all central boxes-the city ser- vice truck the outlying boxes. One or the other would be in readiness for alarms when the other was out
 We urge the establishment of the department on a permanent basis. A department with quota of 55 men would be ample for a city of New Britain's population and practically conforms to the number of men of permanent departments of cities from which reports were obtained.
 "A tentative estimate of mainten- ance of the fire department on basis of full paid department and complete motor equipment indicates that s62,00O annually would be am- pie. Directory figures and estimates of the post office and police depart ments give New Britain a population of, 53,00O. On that basis the fire department per capita cost for year would be about $1.20-a small sum when it is considered that the aver age per capita cost according to gov ernment figures for cities of from 30,- 900 to 50, 900 population is $1.62. As a step towards the carrying out of this plan we respectfully urge that in the preparation of the esti- mates for 1915-16 that the appro- pr1ation be made ample to provide for the appointment of fifteen per- manent firemen and for the purchase of an aerial ladder truck and motor pumping engine at cost of $19,OOO. The necessity of the motor aerial is great. The present equipment is in- adequate and unsafe.
 Fire Prevention.
 Fire prevention is one of the muni- cipal problems receiving serious con- sideration at present and during the year there will be inaugerated under the direction of this board more complete and careful system with this end in view. The preparation of the details is now in progress.
 Lower Insurance. This board is thoroughly in accord with the old maxim of An ounce of prevention is worth pound | citizens are entitled to some benefit
 from the expense which the preventa- tive and protective measures involve.
 through reasonable reduction in insurance premiums the cost of these improvements would be readily ob- talned by the property owners and a
 reduction In insurance might be ik- ened to lower taxation. The reduc-
 ton which the insurance underwrit-
 CTS announced short time ago bene-
 fits only the small property owners on the outskirts of the city. i "The increased efficiency of the de-
 partment through the always ready to respond organization improved
 equipment and system of fire proven
 tion is bound to result in lower rates
 for the property owners in the center of the city.

 In Comparison.
 "The per capita cost of the police department of New Britain according to the government report of 1911 was seventy cents. The board made an investigation of this matter. The per capita costs throughout the country in cities of 30,000 to 50,000 ranged from fifty-three cents to $3.19. The local police force is inadequate even with the increases to be provided during the coming year, for a city of this size The quota of forces for the cities in question range from thirty-three to 110 with an average of fifty-one. Only three places and they have les ser population than New Britain have smaller forces. The reports show that the local department is not burdened with numerous executive officers. The cities give more serious consideration to the importance of the detective service, the average be- ing almost four per city.
 Recommendations. we urge the appointment Of at least six more patrolmen during the ! coming year, which number will bring the force up to the requirements z and thereafter the increases in the force should keep pace with the growth of the city, The accepted ; basis of police protection is one of- ficer per every thousand of popula- tion.

APRIL HORSE SHOW
PROVES DISAPPOINTING

Horse show day which always char
acterizes the April court and hereto
fore bringing together some of the
highest class stations produced in the
country, the majority of which were
the products of Bourbon county, was
disappointing in every detail yester-
day. Not in many years has there
been such a noticeable falling off in
the display held on the public square,
and there was a very conspicuous alb
sence of the grade of stations for
which the county has for years been
noted
OF the entire number more than
two-third were of the draft breed of
stations. Only three of four of the
high class breed of harness stations
were among the display
The horses exhibited on the public
square were as follows:
Dandy Jim, Jr., combined stallion
Wood Monson.
Henry Bright, harness and saddle
stallion-Joseph Houston
Woodrow, Jr., Percheron stallion
Joseph Houston.
Victor, Percheron stallion-Harry
d. Speakes.
Tony, gray Percheron stallion-H.

CHILD'S SIGHT RESTORED
BY GRATING PROCESS

Sight has been given to the left eye
of David Kane, nine-months-old child
of Mr.. and Mrs. Herbert Kane, of Get
tysburg, Pa, through the grating of
the cornea of pigs eye to the child's
eyeball, according to the statement of
physicians at a Baltimore hospital
When the bandage was removed
from the eye it was declared the
child followed the course of a lighted
candle which was moved il front of
him. Another test that brings out
the fact more clearly is that the child
now winks his eyelid if a finger or
small object is waved close to the
eye.
The disease from which little David
has been d sufferer since he was three
weeks old is known as staphyloma of
the cornea. Both eyes became affect
ed and the child was practically blind.
Sight was partially restored to the
right, however, after treatment.
The operation was performed about
week ago, and the cornea of the
pigs eye was used because it is said
it more closely resembles the human
ccrnea than that of any other animal.

VACANT SITES SHOULD BE
MADE MORE ATTRACTIVE
COZ E"EsFs

While the citizens of Paris are i'm
bued with the spirit of making Paris
cleaner and more healthful city, there
should be step taken in the direction
of improving the looks of several va
cant building sites, especially those
along Main street, which have been
allowed to go unattended for some
time and have proved an eyesore to
the community, and impair the beau
ty of the other parts of the city.
One of these Site in particular, is
that at the corner of Main and Sixth
streets, where the old Baptist Church
stood. The owners of the property,
it is understood, recently disposed of
the cid building material with the pro-
vision that the lot should be cleared
by certain time The old structure
was torn down and large portion of
the debris removed, but enough of it
was left on the premises to present
very ugly and unattrative appear
ance. Such a condition would be bad
enough in the suburbs, but in the bus
mess section of the city it should not
be tolerated.
We have not heard of any one, even
tIlOoC uIOoI ColACoIly OASoSOu III Vic
promotion of the civic welfare of the
city, entering a complaint against this
condition, but many have condemned
the unsightly appearance of the site
located in the very heart of the bust
ness district. If there is to be no
effort on the part of those invest
ed with the duty OF clearing this
building site, to comply with the con-
tract, then the city officials should
take action and either have the site
placed in a condition that would be
presentable to the eye of the public or
screen it from view.
