 Begin Next Monday

Announcement regarding the ticket sale for the Bridgeport Oratorio so- ciety's work of ''The Dream of Geron- tius,'' at the State Street Casino Tues day evening, Feb. 27, was made today. The sale for subscribers will start at Steinert's at 8:30 o'clock Monday morning, for active and associate members Tuesday at the same time.
 The public sale will not be started until Wednesday morning. Interest in the singing of the opera has become great during the last few days and indications are that the ticket sale will surpass anything before attempt ed by the Oratorio society, the work of which has been watched by musi- clans and music-lovers in all parts of the East
 Preparations for the work have gone on during the last few days and the huge chorus of $50 voices is being prepared by Dr. Mees for the singing week from Tuesday. The New York Symphony orchestra of 50 pieces, with the beautiful harp, will render the instrumental music. The orchestra is perhaps most widely known as the Walter Damrosch orchestra. It has received great and favorable press comment. ~
 The contralto soloist will be Miss Mary, Jordon, who no doubt will be given a. big welcome here. Heinrich Meyn will be the bass soloist and Merlin Davies. the Welsh tenor, the tenor soloist. Miss Jordan was for merly with Century Opera company.

Special to The Farmer.)

Stratford, Feb. 17.-At a meeting of the board of selectmen held Thursday evening at the town hall the board of fire commissioners was fired. Here after the work of the fire department will be- carried on by the selectmen. This body will be in absolute control. One selectman said today: Since the board was created in the fall of 1915 it has been farce and nuisance. The members hardly ever attended meet ing and displayed an indifferent spirit as to the progress of the department
 The board consists of Fred Van De Bogart, Walter Hubbell and Jeremiah Dahl It was voted to have the com- mission turn over to the selectmen all the books and papers which it pos sesses relative to the department. A committee composed of George Hat tersley, Fred Albrecht and Frank Berard of the Nichols Avenue fire company waited upon the selectmen and asked if they were considered a part of the Stratford fire department. They received an affirmative answer.
