WESTERLY

At the coming financial town meet
ing a matter OF more than ordinary
importance for consideration will be
the proposition to abolish the Wester-
ly fire district system and organize
fire department to cover the whole
town, rather than prescribed district
within the town. This measure would
include the actual fire protection fea
ture of the Watch Hill fire district
also, which is in the town of Wester
ly. At the annual meeting of the
Westerly Fire district it was voted to
bring the matter to the attention of
the financial town meeting, but with
out recommendation and simply to
pave the way for action. At present
the firemen do duty when necessity re-
qures beyond the district limits, and
the parties in such instances benefited
get the Ire service at the expense of
the tax payers of the fire district The
new plan would mean that the fire de-
partment expenses would be met by
the taxpayers OF the whole town ana
not be confined to fire district tax pay

The proposed memorial auditorium,
in honor of the Rhode Island soldiers
and sailors, planned to be erected by
the city of Providence, will probably
become a statewide instead of city
memorial. A legislative committee has
been asked TO 10 niwith the city COM
mittee and every city and town in the
state is to have representation, as will
also the various civic organizations
This body would make definite plans
for the whole object, and determine
what part of the expense should be
borne by public appropriations and
what by public and private subscrip-
ton. Through its executive and sub
committees it would carry on the act
ual work of building.
At a meeting held in the capital
city, it was suggested that in the be-
ginning private subscriptions to the
project be limited to $1,000 to prevent
oversubscription and give every either
an opportunity to contribute. It was
the belief that the raising of the
money would be an easy matter. II
| was suggested that the building be
called Liberty hall or Victory hall The
desire is to commemorate the part tC
| coincide with the desire to serve the
| future.
According to Richard w. Jennings
| state treasurer of Rhode Island, tht
| state will lose $4,000 a year in reve-
nue. from liquor licenses and the cit.
! les and towns s150,000 more when ma.
| tional prohibition becomes operative
! While the loss of revenue would be Sc.
rious for many of the cities and towns
it would not so affect the state, as the
| $4,000 is only small percentage O
| the annual budget. The cities an(
| towns now collect the entire liquor IL
cense fee and turn one quarter of thu
amount over to the state treasurer.
In the state Of Rhode Island, thirty
| five out Of thirty mine of the cities ant
| towns Of the state, the number of votes
uncast on the liquor license question

SPRING IMPROVEMENTS

sln the main the spring improvement
campaign must be an effort to arouse
! the people individually to take care
fof their own property. An old provert
says, that If everyone will sweep be-
fore his own door the whole world will
| be clean. gsssii
Ii Still there are. some large improve
ment propositions that can be carried
| on only by a general movement OF
community work. If the wide awake
people OF a town conclude that the
place should have a new park, they
| do not always wait until conservative
Tor parsimonious taxpayers are willing
to put up the money. They are quite
LIKELY to appoint a community work
lday and assemble a great crowd OF
volunteers to do the work with their
own hands. S! y t,.a..
In this way bare tracts of land with.
out any beauty except the view of dis.
tant horizons are in. day or two
transformed into neatly kept grounds
with shrubs and, trees, that in a few
years will make. the place bower of
beauty. ...t.t,s, ...ss'
People take hold Of these enterpris-
es with splendid spirit and enjoy
themselves a dot better than if they
were hustling every minute to put
money into their own pockets. The
school children work at them with
keen enjoyment. They like to. be do
ing. the same things as the grownups.
Few towns have set aside sufficient
tracts in anticipation of future growth
as parks and Fairgrounds. Denison.
should have more of-these open spaces
made into places Of beauty and recre-
alton. If the money to develop them
would come hard, why not appoint a.
community work day to improve them,
as SO many other. places have done.
The possibilities of Identification
are limitless. 1t pays from business
viewpoint. And it binds people by ties
of affection to their home town. It
makes life better worth living. Let
everyone take hold to do.his full share
and to arouse interest in home town
