BURGLAR ALARM SYSTEM
FOR BANK OF WATERFOWL

BANK holdups are too frequent to
take chances, think the officers of the
Bank OF Watertown. They have no de-
sire to be locked into their vaults
with the offie force and perchance six
or eight customers, while couple of
holdups carry off the money in the
teller's cage unmolested; so they have
taken timely precaution by having an
alarm installed with push buttons To-
Gated in the vault and other conyen-
lent places about the bank, which set
OF the alarm both outside and inside
the bank. No holdup will work to the
tune of this gong.
AT night the gong is set off by tamp
ring with the vaults, thus providing
night and day protection
Iris is in keeping with the security
which the Bank of Watertown has;
furnished the citizens of this com
munity for the past sixty-five years.

MRS. F.E. WOODARD RESIGNS

On account of ill health, the vice
chairman of the Watertown chapter of
the American Red Cross has been
obliged to resign, and it was with the
most sincere regret and a feeling of a
great loss, that the executive board
accepted Mrs. Frank Woodlands resig-
nation.
1t was under Mrs. Woodlands COM
petent leadership that the organiza-
ton OF the Watertown Red Cross chap
ter was perfected, and it was through
her efforts and those of her willing as
sistants and cO-workers that the chap
ter has had it's development and
growth. Her leadership will be greatly
missed by the Watertown chapter and
its auxiliaries, but the organization
will remain and the standard of work
set by our recent vice chairman must
continue to exist; each of which in
itself is a splendid tribute to the un-
firing and self-sacrificing efforts of
one OF earth's noble women.
The following resolutions were
drawn up and accepted by the execu-
tive board Of the Watertown chapter
OF the American Red Cross:
Whereas, Our worthy and efficient

devotion the organization of the Wa
tertoWn Chapter of the American Red

hc1ent working unit of the parent or
ganizatiOn, and thru whose personality
and untiring efforts said chapter and
its branches and auxiliaries became a
harmonious and a patriotic force
WORKING in noble cause, has this
day handed in her resignation as vice
chairman, and,
whereas, 1t is known and was at all
times apparent that Mrs. F. e. Wood
ard save the best that was in her to
this cause, that it is evident to this
Doard that some urgent and impera-
tive need caused her to sever her Of
fetal relations with this chapter:
RESOLVED Therefore, That her resig-
nation be and is hereby accepted, with
the slncerest regrets, however, to her
co-Workers, and in reluctantly accept
ing said resignation, this board ex-
presses its heartfelt gratitude for the
great work accomplished thru her wise
and able leadership and that it is the
earnest hope of the members thereof
that she may find the relief from her
arduous duties material help to her
and that their best wishes accompany
her on her journey thru life;
Resolved Further, That a copy of
this resolution, signed by the secretary
and the chairman be transmitted tn
her.
