WATER PRESSURE
NOT SUFFICIENT
Fire at Enola Brings Out Bad
Condition of Roads
and Plugs

Enola, Pa, Feb. 1.-THE monthly
Company No. l will be held in the
hosehouse this evening. Several
minor officers will be appointed by
the president, including an assist
ant chief, assistant engineer, fore
man of hose and hosemen.
Several important matters relative
to the fire of last week will be
brought up at the meeting. Among
these are the almost impossible
condition of the streets, low water
pressure and the frozen fireplugs.
At special meeting held several
weeks ago the company sent a COM
plaint to the county courts and the
townsupervisors about the poor con-
dition of the roads. Following the
recent snowstorms, the Valley Rail-
ways Company failed to clear the
tracks and there was no available
way to take the motor truck from
the ffrehouse.
For several years the company
has been hindered in fighting fire by
the low water pressure. The Dau-
phin Consolidated Water Company,
subsidiary of the Pennsylvania
railroad, and the company which
furnishes the town with water, de-
cided to install a booster pump to
increase the pressure. This matter
has been hanging fire for more than
year ana the pump has not been
installed.
Numerous complaints have been
heard about the ruling of the water
company in prohibiting the fire
company to make tests of the fire.
plugs. The water company charges
each propertyowner in town a plug
tax of dollar a year and forbids
the company to test the plugs to in
sure that they are in working con-
dition. At the fire last week plug
less than one hundred feet from
the house was frozen tight. Men,
bers of the company claim that if
they were able to make tests of he
plugs from time to time this would
not OCCUR.

Junior Red Cross Tag
For Mechanicsburg Schools

Mechanicsburg, Pa, Feb. Ii
Saturday was Red Cross tag day in
this place, and from early morning
till evening the kiddies were a busy
lot. The plan was adopted in the
effort to make all schools one hun
dred per cent. and each tag sold
helped pay the fee for some scholars
who could not afford the amount for
membership. The movement was
given hearty support. Grammar
school pupils who number one hun
dred and five feel they should have
the honor, for they are already one
hundred per cent, and after much
discussion they finally adopted "a
name for their chapter, which is
"Pershing's Guards" They organ
lied with the following officers:
Chairman, George A. Guyer; vice
chairman, Raymond S. Barnes; sec
retary, Miss Bessie Bear, and treas
