AS has been the case with the pre-
vious tabulations made by Fireman's
Herald, the serviceable combination
chemical and hose car again leads the
motor apparatus with n total of 1882.
What appeared to be hesitation in
adopting the triple combination pump,
chemical engine and hose car is, per-
haps. diminishing, as there are 45S
of these registered rs against $40
straight automobile pumping engines
and combination pumps and hose car
riers. Ladder trucks and water tow
erS number 406, tractorized pieces
$50, and all other fire automobiles,
most of them chiefs cars, total l.
155.
Many Autos to Be Purchased
The fate that has befallen horse
drawn apparatus in the fire service is
again shown by this years census of
possible purchases. OF the automo-
biles. 1.045 are listed. while of the
horse-drawn the total stands at is. OF
which are listed from Canadian
cities. When it is considered that
for obvious reasons the enumeration
of possible purchases is not and can
not be anywhere near complete so far
as motor appartus is concerned, while
the departments that are condemned
to horsed vehicles are not likely to in
crease their purchases, it is plain that
in year or two future purchases will
not mention the horse at all.
OF the additions to be made this
year, chemical and horse cars are
again to the fore with 245. Pumping
engines and combination bumpers and
hose carriers show a growing strength
with a total of 202, triple combina-
tions, 147; hose cars. SO; chemicals
%: aerial and service trucks and
water towers, 156; tractors, $50; other
automobiles, sc.
At present In the Harrisburg fire
department there are seven motorized
pieces; two steamers, four chemical
and hose wagons and one aerial lad
der truck. All other apparatus is
orse-drawn, but contracts are being
awarded to motorize this equipment
as follows: Two triple pumping en-
gines, chemical and hose cars, -four
tractorized steam engines, two service
trucks and six new chemical and hose
wagons.

sun GLASSES FOR
RtSERATIg MEETEERS

If they live up to the claims of their
inventor, who is none other than Fred
Clarke, veteran Pirate manager, sun.
glasses will enable baseball players to
catch flies in the face of the strongest
sun. The glasses. illustrated in the
Popular Science Monthly, are rivet-
ed to the peak of the cap and work
on a hinge. When not needed to shield
the eyes, they rest against the cap.
When ball is hit the fielder simply
touches the rim of the glasses and
they fall down in front of the eyes in
just the proper position so that he
has a chance to see the approaching
ball even though he is lokking directly
at the sun. The glasses can not fall
off, and they can be shifted out of the
way with the quickest kind of a move
ment when not wanted-two advan-
tages which make them far superior
to the old style of .specks."

averred that the station located at
Riverview, six-tenths of a mile from

PROMINENT MEN
GIVE MILITARY
TRAINING VIEWS
DIR. CHARLES b. EAGER,
WRITES:

In reply to your letter relative
to universal military training, 1t
is my opinion that the only kind
of military training that would
result in adequate preparedness
and at the same time be fair TO
all Americans, would necessarily
have to be universal.
1 further have sufficient con-
fidence in the General Staff to
take it for granted that they are
the ones who are best able, be-
cause of their training and eN-
perience. to determine the details
of any plan of universal military
training.

jerks and more up-to-date map can
not be found. 1t speaks well for Mr..
jerks and marks him as a splendid
workman in this line. 1t shows every
mile of road in the county, all railroads,
every dipping vat, school and church.
Everything is accurately designated.
Every school district, as outlined by the
Board, has been colored, showing ex-
actly the amount of territory belonging
to each school and in all it is a splendid
map. The County School Board at its
meeting last Monday approved the map
and made it the official school map OF
Hancock County. Hereafter it will be
an easy matter for every one to know
exactly in what district he belongs, and
it will serve to eliminate great many
wrangles that may arise about attendance
out of proper district.
This map was made at the in stance OF
the Board of Supervisors, and The Echo
commends the Board for its wisdom in
so ordering and congratulates Mr.. jerks
on his success. He is indeed a very
capable and talented young man.
