HASTINGS WILL PURCHASE
TWO CHEMICAL ENGINES

Hastings Times: A meeting of the
fire department was held last Wednes-
day evening at which time it was de-
cided to purchase 35O-pound bell for
fire alarm, instead of the heavier size
mentioned before. The order for this
has already been sent in. Tuesday
evening of this week representative
of the w. S. Mott Fire Engine Co., ad-
dressed a meeting of citizens in re-
gard to the chemical engines made by
that firm. The sentiment expressed at
the meeting was in favor of the in
stallation of two engines OF the type
described, at cost of $3.50 With this
equipment reduction of at least ten
per cent in insurance premiums is
guaranteed. A committee was appoint
ed to solicit subscriptions for the pur-
pose of financing the plan, and it is
reported that the list is we'll up to-.
wards $1,000 this evening This will
be raised in three annual payments
and applied on the contract for the
engines in the same way A meeting
of the Commercial club is being held
tonight to complete the deal and sign
the contract.

MISTAKES

When a plumber makes mistake,
he charges twice for it.
When a lawker makes mistake,
it's just what he wanted, because he
has a chance to try the case all over
again.
When a carpenter makes mistake,
it's just what he expected, because
the chances are 10 to he never learn
ed his business.
When an electrician makes a mis-.
take, he blames it on induction" be-
cause nobody knows what that is.
When a doctor makes mistake, he
buries it.
When a judge makes a mistake, it
becomes the law of the land.
When a preacher makes a mistake,
nobody knows the difference.
When a printer makes mistake
everybody knows it, and if he's lucky
he is allowed to print the job over
and charge the cost up to profit and
loss.
Don't you envy the lucky printer?
