 At the meeting of the East Berlin Village Improvement society which was held last evening at Athletic hall E. P. Cody, of East Berlin. proposed that a number of fire extinguishers be bought and placed around the town. During the recent. fires which occurred at East Berlin, and especially at the dwelling house of the East Berlin Bill 1ings company, the entire residence might have been destroyed if fire ex- tinguishers containing chemicals were not brought to the scene. Whether the Village Improvement societies of the town will appropriate money to buy these extinguishers was not stated, but if it's advisability is con- sidered by the society of that part of the town, the rest of the local branches will probably follow suit
 This proposition is one of the best sproposed in some time and many of { the local citizens have remarked that they are in favor of it. During the past eight or 10 years it has been pro- posed on numerous occasions to obtain g. chemical fire department in the town. but these propositions have died away and whenever a bad fire breaks out in the town the New Britain fire department is called upon for assist ance and oftentin1es after getting here

The Memorial Day program was
carried out as given last week. The
address by Hon. Franklin d. Hale,
formerly U. S. Consul, was forceful
and impressive and as the speaker
has been in Il position to see the at
titude of American citizens from the
standpoint of the outsider, was spec
tally apt. In part Mr.. Hale said
"Conditions in America are not as
they should be; we are eXtravagant
in many ways, the percentage of
crime is higher than it is in many
more favored nations. The slogan
of the World War was Make the
World Safe for Democracy ques-
ton whether America is yet ready for
the rule of democracy, even after 1926
years of prosperity" He spoke of the
hardness of America to enter the
war in contrast with the spirit of the
Civil War, but said that the spirit of
the American soldier in the World
War was the same as that of the war
of 1861, with the same devotion to
duty. Mr.. Hale concluded his re-
marks with the following original
poem, written at the signing of the
armistice:-
Next Sunday will be observed as
Children's Day and the exercises are
to be held in the Methodist church.
The children will have the usual ex-
ercises and there will be baptism of

The Post story stated that "The girl
who is chosen May Queen at Lasell
must measure up to u very tall yard
stick of feminine virtues, for the May
Queen at Lasell needs to be much
more than pretty and popular to be
crowned by her classmates with the
highest honor in the gift of the SEM
mary. Gracious, beloved and sweet
are the words that a senior used to
sum up the qualifications that a girl
must have if she wouldtit enthroned
on the greensward and preside al
Maytime revels." Miss Ethel Ramage
of Vermont, vice-president of the
senior class, was yesterdays May
Queen at the fete presented by the
students. Crowned in white blossoms,

Enlisting at Fort Ethan Allen

Vermont young men, both those
who have had army service and those
who have not, have the opportunity
offered them of enlisting in Uncle
Sans big army with all the advanta-
ges which the university in Khaki"
will offer, and still be near their
friends and relatives during Il part,
and possibly their entire period of en-
listment They may do this by en-
listing now at Fort Ethan Allen and
they can have their choice of four or
five excellent branches of the service,
including the Infantry, Quartermaster
Corps, Medical Department, Signal
Corps and Motor Transport Corps.
Fort Ethan Allen is one of the fin
est army posts in the entire country
and the vacancies in the service are
now rapidly filling up with u fine class
of young men who are largely recruit
ed from Vermont. Some of them
have seen one or more years service
while others are going into the army
for the first time, impressed by the
opportunity of securing educational
and training advantages which are to
form such a big feature of the new
army and all under the healthful and
broadening conditions of army life.
Great opportunities are offered men
who enlist now to rapidly rise to nom
commissioned rank with the greater
advantages and increased pay which
the non-commissioned officer receives.
The new army is just now in the pro-
cess of organization and men, either
with or without service who enlist
now will be in line for rapid promo
ton if they make good. The pay Of
$50 per month for private and cor
responding increases for other grades
established during the war will almost
certainly be continued and when it is
considered that the soldier has moth
ing to pay out for either board or
clothes, the pay of the soldier COM
pares very favorably with that of
other employment.
In the new army opportunity will
be afforded every soldier to secure the
equivalent of a good common school
education as we'll as opportunity for
training in trades and specialized
branches. Vermont young men who
desire to enlist in the new army and
serve near their homes should apply
to the Recruiting Officer at Fort Eft
han Allen.
