 Six months ago at cost of sl50 the combustion recorder was installed At that time about 7,5OO gallons Of water was being pumped for each gallon of fuel oil consumed. Now there are nearly $500 gallons pumped for each gallon of fuel oil consumed m increase in efficiency of more than five Ter cent.
 The recorder works automatically It analyzos the furnace gasses every four minutes and presents n record oi the analysis SO that the fireman can see at any time just what per. cent of combustion he is getting from his furnace, The records for twenty four hours will average about i3 per cent. this being equal to about 7S per cent boiler efficiency.

 In both the kress and the NNDolworth stores. arrests were made on Saturday "t persons caught in the act of purloin- ing articles for which they had not paid. In the first instance d Mexican woman was taken in custody by Chief t'risbois, after the woman had secreted 90 dozen or more articles she had re- moved from the counters. The woman and her daughter were observed bv at taches Of the kress store and when ii became quite certain that she was com mlting theft, she was detained until 'hiet Brisbois who happened to be passing. had taken charge. Because of the pitiful tale related by the woma n and her daughter. the Kress manage nent declined to prosecute and the woman was released

By LOUIS ]. HART

The Pennant," which is to be staged at the high school auditorium tomorrow night, will be a huge success Dress re- hearsal went off without a single mis- hap Friday afternoon.
 In two weeks time Miss McAfee the director, took green material and has made wonderful change. Many of the students appearing in The Pennant' are playing before the public for the first time in their lives. Considering the short length of time that has been spent in the coaching of the play. it will be big hit
 The play is of real college life with catchy songs The football squad will be one of the principal scenes. One hundred people will sing in the choruses
 The tickets are going fast and all those who have been tardy will have to take what seats are left. Manager Earl Reno predicts a record breaking crowd.
 Miss Pauline Shaw acting the part of the widow is a real sensation and will have the public in an uproar during the entire performance. She has an eX- ceptionally good voice for a high school girl.
 Bert Doris. in his famous and pop ular song. When q Fellows in Love Hes q Fool" win tear the house down. When this song k being sung the football squad will be on the stage to join in the chorus.
 Francis Roberts, krowa as Mrs. Bond. will undoubtedly win warm place in the hearts of the women who love to hold down their husbands. Al- bert Gerwig. the husband, gets thunder in general from his narrow minded wife. He does his part exceptionally well.
 Little Ruth Mcclure will be the idol of the audience. her charming ways and wonderful personality will win admir- CTS for her Bert Doris who has ap- peared in nearly every play that has ever been staged at the high school in the last three years. will win Little Ruth as his lawful wife She may be considered the leading woman. but t will be hard to pick who really is play ing the leading part as there are sev- eral principals. Miss Mcclure has a soft and tender voice
 George Richards known in the play
