There is adjoining the switchboard
room the storage battery room, con-
tanning the necessary batteries for OPP
Grating the fire alarm system, mount
ed on a suitable battery rack. The
batteries are divided into two sets,
called "A set and 'B" set. One set
of the batteries is working the fire
alarm system while the other set is
re-charging Located also in this
room are the motor generators used to
charge the storage batteries. These
motor generators are in duplicate, 1t
only being necessary to operate one at
time Should an accident occur to
one of these motor generators, the
other motor generator may be lmme-

There is also Il Gamewell testing
clock which sends in an automatic
test consisting of three taps to all
fire houses in the city at once. This
clock is used for the purpose of auto

stamp. This device automatically
stamps the minute, hour of the day,
the day of the week, the month and

New Game1UeN Fire Alarm System s. 4aa'
Most Modern IN Any Southwestern City

With the completion of the install
lation of the new Gamewell Telegraph
fire alarm system. the city of Phoenix
has made an important stride in the
plan TO make it of all cities in the
southwest the best protected from the
raVages of fire. Today no city the
size of Phoenix can boast of more
complete fire alarm system. None can
lay just claim to a more modern
plant. And none can point to better
construction or better equipment in
stalled at less cost.
Many things have contributed to
the advantage of Phoenix in securing
this excellent system. In the first
place the citizens long ago realized
the necessity of more adequate fire
protection system 1t is not much
over a year that fifteen Gamewell
boxes comprised the total number of
automatic fire alarm stations There
were several telephone stations but
these depended upon the efficiency of
telephones not owned or operated by
the city.
|, Today there are 104 automatic sta
tons. several Independent circuits, a
registering and repeating system sec
ord to none. and a system in opera
ton that results in the receiving of
an alarm with such speed that there
is not the fraction of seconds de-
lay in determining the location of Il
fire, thereby permitting the apparatus
to roll out of the houses in much
/ quicker time 1t is a system that
should be adequate for many years
1 to come.
( L is about six weeks ago that the
material for this elaborate system ar
/ rived Then Superintendent of Con-
struction l.. Coffee of the GameWeli
company put in an appearance ac-
companied by two or three skilled
electricians. With this force and such
| local labor as he required, the Game
Well man has spent every minute of
the period intervening in installing
this system in manner that is a

Faust Opera
Singers Here
Quartette Will Give Musical Pro-
gram at ArmOry Monday,
November 27

The third number of the 1916
lecture course will be given at
the Armory Monday evening
when the Faust Opera Singers
will give a musical program.
This company consists of a quar-
tette of men and women of un-
usual ability and an -accompa-
mist of whom only highest praise
is spoken.
No one can attend the concert
of the Faust Opera Singers
without gaining a clear idea of
the story of the opera, the beau
tiful melodies which have made
the music famous, and many
other matters of general inter-
est, but not of general knowl-
edge, pertaining to the opera
Faust.
The first part of the program
is given over to quartettes and
solos from the best in oratorio
and secular music. Mr.. Chris
tian Mathisen, tenor, sings Nor
wegian folk songs in native CO.'S
tune, and for the quartette a
group of our own familiar folk
songs are arranged, songs which
have a new appeal when pre-
sented by these artists.
The latter part of the program
is devoted to the opera Faust,
with the story Of the opera pre-
sented in narrative form as the
more familiar numbers are sung.
Some of these are the Chorus,
Valentin's Farewell, The Calf of
Gold, Kirnress, Siebel's Love
Song, Cavatina, Jewel Song, The
Garden Scene, the we'll known
Duet, Soldiers Chorus, The Sere-
made, and the wonderful trio
Finale. A "Good-Night" song
concludes the program.
