Gains IN POPULARITY

Electricallypropelled fire apparatus
are finding favor in many municipal
tiles. both here and abroad.
About a year ago the Fire and Po-

cy of the fire department, and 1t was
decided to completely motorize the
department. Following the CONVEX
sion OF electric fire apparatus in Cam
den n. j.. the city Of Paterson made
a thorough investigation and some
rigid tests, on the strength of which
an order was placed for two steam
fire engines with two wheel front
drive electric tractors. four wheel
front drive tractors. five electric COM
bination chemical engines and hose
wagons. and one S5-foot four wheel
drive electric aerial truck. Charging
apparatus for each engine house was
also ordered

August 1914 has the Upton yacht been
without guard and caretaker. Amer.
lean yachtsmen know no more about
tie lines and construction of the chal.
lenger than they did when the sloop
appeared off Sandy Hook a few DAYS
after the declaration of war. There
appears to be little chance that the
Shamrock ". will be uncovered dur
irg the coming season. Reports from
the other side, however, are to the eff.
Tect that Sir Thomas is keeping in
close touch with American yachts
men and will put his challenger over
board early in the spring of 1917, If
international conditions warrant the
belief that the Americas cup races
can be stage. In the meantime it is
expected that both the Resolute and
Vanitie will be seen in few races this
summer in order to keep the prospec-
tive defenders in shape for the yacht
ing classic when times are more pro
pitious.

twice as far as she should have trav.
