CITY BUYS FIRE TRUCK.

AT meeting of the city council
held in the, City Managers office, last
Wednesday morning, the contract was
signed for the delivery of fire truck
of the American La France type. This
machine is of the four cylinder type of
engine, with IS horse power motor.
1t is equipped with pump that throws
600 gallons of water per minute, and
carries 40 gallon chemical tank. It
also has all the necessary ladders, and
1900 feet Of fire hose. On the running
boards is sufficient room for fifteen
men to stand while the truck is being
driven to the scene of fire.
The cost of the entire equipment is
$4,000, which includes the war tax,
freight and the services of the man to
place the machine in operation in this
city. Delivery will be made in
October.
E. w. Williams, member of the fire
and finance COMMITTEES Jf the city
council, and a committee selected from
the fire department, have given much

fire truck. They have visited num-
Der of cities and investigated the mer-
its of severaldtruck that are on the
market today. After carefully in
vestigating different machines the
committee decided on the American
La France, said to be one Of the very
best types of fire trucks made today,
When the committee reported to the
council for final action, that body was
unanimous in approving the work OF
the committee, with the result that
Manchester is to have a strictly mod
ern fire engine.
The council is to be commended for
it's action, and we believe that every
citizen of Manchester will approve the
purchase of this machine.

HAS MANCHESTER ANY AUTOMO.
BILE RULES?

The disregard for traffic rules in
Manchester has reached a point that
is nothing short of criminal. The man
ner in which cars are driven in the
city would give one the impression
that there are no auto rules or re-
gulations. The driver of car will
start up his machine, with a muffler
cut out wide open and then proceed
to make as much noise as possible.
And as to speed, well there is no limit.
Only kind providence has protected
many pedestrian as he has dared to
venture on the streets during the past
few weeks. Numerous auto drivers
seem to take supreme delight in max
ing as much noise as possible and
making these hot nights veritable
nightmares for those who are lying
on sick beds. Some day one Of these
wreckless drivers will send his ma
chine over someone's child with fatal
results and then something will be
done. Why not wake up to the situation
now before someone has been killed
or cripped for life? We were informed
on Monday that among the cars that
lined up at the Chautauqua tent Sun
day afternoon was car with 1916
1918 number plate. One or two were
noticed with 1919 number plates. In
many of our nearby cities it is de-
cidedly dangerous to ignore the rules
governing the operation OF motor cars.
Fines are imposed for minor offenses
in Dubuque and other cities. Some
have suggested that Manchester em-
ploy a motor cop to run down the
offenders. We believe If Mayor Mum
son would impose severe fines on Of
tenders when arrested by the police
officers the situation would soon cor
rect itself.

A COMPLIMENT FOR JUDGE DUN.
HAM,

Judge Geo. w Dunham of this city
has been named as one of the arbitra-
tors in the street car controversy on
at Waterloo. The first session of the
board is held today. Some time ago
Judge Dunham handed some Of the
radical labor leaders in Waterloo a
package in the form of an injunc-
tion restraining them from carrying
out certain threats, and prior to that
time rendered decision against
the liquor interests of the city, and
was severly criticised by many at
the time for the action he took. 1t
is very apparent that Judge Dunham
stands we'll in the estimation of the
men of the big affairs in Waterloo.
for when casting about for member
of the board who comes from outside
of the city, all parties to the contro-
versy wanted the Judge from Man
chester. i,

ELMER G. SMITH.

Elmer c. Smith, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Smith, died at the home OF
his parents, on Fayette street, June
11th.. 1920, at the age Of rs years, II
months and 10 days. Mr. Smith has
been a sufferer from tuberculosis for
some time, but until recently could
continue with his work. A few weeks
ago he contracted severe cold, and
this brought on complications, and
the old malady soon became evident
again. and from that time on he grad
ually grew weaker until the end came.
Elmer was born on farm norttl-
west of Manchester July 1st, 1888. He
attended the public schools OF Man
chester, and when he completed the
eighth grade he went to Waterloo and
operated restaurant for years, OF
rather until failing health compelled
him to seek employment which was
not SO confining. From Waterloo ne
went to Missouri, and Travelled for
Golfers Publishing house, until a few
weeks ago, when sickness made II
necessary for him to discontinue his
work. He came to the home oI ms
parents, where he was given the tend
crest of care.
Funeral services were held at the
family home Sunday afternoon, Rev
w. A. Montgomery having charge OF
the same. Interment was made in
Oakland cemetery.
Elmer leaves surviving him his par
ents, and the following brothers and
sisters: Burdette Smith, who lives at
Pender, Nebraska; and Ariel, Arlie,
Otto, Bonita, Percy, Mildred and Ken
meth, all living in Manchester.
Among the out of town relatives
who were present at the funeral ser
vices were Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Smith
and family of Waterloo; Mr.. and Mrs.
Bert Smith and family of Greeley;
Messrs. Dwight and Will Smith OF
Edgewood.
Mr.. Smith was a bright, intelligent
and hard working young man, and in
spite of the serious handicap under
which he labored for many years, he
was determined to make his own way
in the business world. He was lik-
able young man, and in his passing.

R. c. KEAGY IN TRAIN WRECK.

Rev. and Mrs. r. C. Keagy OF Nit
chel1, South Dokota, had an experiance
on Monday, June 7th. which they do
not care to repeat soon. While travel
ing on train near Draper, the pull
man in which Rev. and Mrs. Keagy
were riding left the rails and turned
over down the embankment, injuring
a number of the passengers. Mr.. keagy
received a blow on the head which
rendered him unconcious for time,
and Mrs. Keagy was cut in the face
by flying glass. The coach was equip
ed with kerosene lamps, and had the
accident occurred in the night with
the lamps burning, it is quite likely
that many of the injured passengers
would have perished. As it was all
of the occupants of the car managed
to crawl out through the windows.
Surely it was close call for Rev. and
Mrs Keagy, and their friends here
are all glad that no more serious in
juries were inflicted.

IMMENSE CROWD
PROGRAMS OF A HIGH ORDER
MARK OPENING DAYS OF An
NUAL EVENT.
WEBER's BAND HERE TODAY.
'sNOthing But the Truth" by New York
Opera Company Here Thursday
Evening.

The annual Chautauqua sessions
opened in Manchester on Sunday after
noon with record crowd in attend
ance for the opening number. The
Redpath Vawter system is furnishing
Chautauqua patrons this year With
the best array of talent ever brought
to the Chautauqua platform and every
one who has attended the sessions is
more than pleased with the lectures
and entertainments. Manchester went
away over the top in the sale of sea-
son tickets. Mr. T. F. Graham the
superintendent of the Chautauqua
here this year and general manager
of all superintendents of this circuit,
is making an ideal platform manager
and has happy way of presenting the
talent as they appear from day to day.
The little folks are also having q
week of fun under the direction of a
lady who is well qualified to direct
the activities of the children. The
little folks are preparing to present
on Saturday afternoon, their play.
"The County Fair"
Weber's big band is the feature on
the Chautauqua program today, CIV
ing programs this afternoon and even
ing.
The Criterion Quartet of New York
appeared in two programs on Tues
day. Their program on Tuesday
evening was one of the best attractions
ever presented here.
The Columbia Players gave two ex-
cellent programs on Sunday, and the
lecture-entertainmen Turn to the
Right" by Edw. M. Whitney, interpret.
er of plays, was well received by the
great crowd.
The Dorothy Cole Company made a
decided hit with the Chautauqua pa
irons on Tuesday, and the lectures by
w. e. Wenner, on "A Square Deal for
Jack" and the story of the Submarine
chaser, by Nathaniel Rubinkam, were
interesting and instructive.
Many OF the Chautauqua patrons
have been looking forward to the time
when Keighley and his company OF
players will present Nothing but the
Truth" Those who have seen this
play say that it is funnier than 1T
Pays to Advertise" the play which
made such hit on the Chautauaua
two years ago. tl9tf Af't Z
Chautauqua patrons need not sta5
away from the sessions this year for
fear of being rained out. The system
has provided new tent which sheds
water like ducks back. Don't miss
any of the sessions for there are lots
of good things in store for you.

entire time to land business, and will
also do more or less photography
work for a number of the big maga-
zines, among the list being the Nation

that he and his family will leave the
r,ty, but through the deal another
good family is added to Manchester's
population.

UNsEAsONABLE WEATHER.

During the past week the weather
man has been handing out packages
of rather unreasonable weather. Last
Friday it was reported at Dubuque
that s. was the hottest day in June
since 1880, the mercury climbing to
81 degrees. On Sunday was another
scorcher. From 1000 o'clock in the
forenoon until 100 in the afternoon
the mercury reached the 100 mark.
The heat of the past few days has done
more or less damage to such fruit as
Strawberries, currants and rasp-
berries, while corn on the heavier soil
made remarkable progress, and farm
ers had a rare opportunity to kill
weeds in their corn fields.
