Manufacturers Plan
to Swell Fund For
the Salvation Army

Leading Bridgeport manufacturers
ance of the Salvation Army in it's eff
forts to raise $4,000 to be used for
the erection of citadel on Elm street,
it was announced today. Before con-
tributing, however the managers say
it will be necessary to call special
meetings of their boards of directors.
This will be done in a number of in
tsancesA within the next As hours.
S. Simpson, chairman of the Advis-
DRY Board of the Building fund; Mayor
Wilson, Farnham c. Fox, the treas
urer, DR.. D. c. Patterson and other
members of the board have taken the
matter up with the big industrial or
CARNATIONS and it is believed that
from these concerns sufficient money
will be obtained to make up the bal
ance of the fund.
Mr.. Simpson went to New York to-
day. While there he will consult with
some of the directors of local con-
Germs who have their headquarters in
the greater city. He will submit the
claims of the Salvation Army to these
industrial leaders and invite them to
give their endorsement and some of
their money to the scheme.
The chairman of the board said all
that was necessary to bring the big
industrial organizations of Bridgeport
into line was a little enlightenment
as to the aims, purposes and accom-
plishments of the Salvation Army. If
they understand that the organization
is permanent factor ~~~ good in the
city, Mr.. Simpson intimated, they will
come into line.

SANDY HOOK men
REBEL AT water
! COMP ANY TERMS
Newtown Concern Will Elk.
tend Service If Citizens
Purchase Stock.
(Special to The Farmer

Newtown, Jan. 22-The proposition
of the Newtown Water Co. outlining
the conditions upon which it will ex-
tend the water mains to Sandy Hook,
was received Friday by the meeting
of those interested in estab lishing
fire district in Sandy Hook.
Briefly it was that the citizens of
the village will have to pay for the
cost of the extension by subscribing
for an adequate amount of shares in
the corporation to cover the estimated
outlay. The report suggested the
appointment of a committee by the
citizens to canvass the village for
subscriptions, which was accordingly
DONE AS the stock of the water
company is on four per cent. basis
it is highly doubtful that local capital
will be interested in view of the high
err rates of interest offered investors
generally in the financial districts.
Many voters at the meeting were
in favor of ignoring the terms offered
by the water company and establish
ing the fire district at once, enrolling
a fire company. purchasing a chemi-
cal engine and two or more hand
pumps and going it alone. This will
undoubtedly be done if the subscrip-
ton plan fails.
An appeal : the Utilities Board is
weapon still open to tn evillagers to
which recourse may be made after
the organization of the district is
perfected. q
