WILL GIVE DANCES TO
RAISE MONEY FOR SIRENE

The Medina Fire Department held
it's regular meeting Friday night with
a good attendance. The proposition Of
buying siren announcer was dis
cussed and as council has no money to
pay for this improvement, the boys
decided to raise the funds and buy one
themselves.
A series of dances will be held to
raise the money ~ $475 is necessary.
The first dance will be held in Odd
Fellows Hall on Wedneday evening,
April 7. Other date will be announced
later.
The question of buying rubber coats
for the firemen was discussed. Council
has told the fremen that it has no
possible funds, and as the boys must
have the coats, it was finally decided
that instead Of paying the firemen for
their work at fires outside the city
limits, the money thus received from
pleased contributors will be put into a
fund and the coats paid for out of this
fund.
Firemen after the business Of the
evening, enjoyed a feed. Dallas War
ner acted as cook, DR.. Wise helped in
the serving, and the boys all report a
pleasant social time.

FIXING UP OLD TIRE
COSTS SAME AS NEW ONE

That Council is in the hole and can
scarce see over the edge is largely due
to bad management, much being trace
able back to previous councils. But
here's one on the council.
One of the tires on the Ford chemi-
cal was dead and should have been
buried. When the chief asked for A
new one, he was told to have the old
one fixed up. 1t was taken to a re-
pair man and he said it would cost as
much to fix up the old tire as to buy
a new one. But council had said it
would not buy new tire and to have
the old one fixed up; and for protec-
tion's sake the Chief had no other al
tentative except to have it fixed. This
he did and the repaired tire COSTING as
much as a new one lasted just four
weeks. But the Council had no money
for new tires, but would run its face
for repairs.

Shortage Of Cars Is Cause.

Charleston.-Transportation machin-
cry in the West Virginia mining fields
was decidedly out Of gear as compared
with the improvement in facilities OBJ
served during the period ending Octo-
ber Q, with the result that there was
a downward trend to production. The
new orders of the Interstate Com
merce Commission instead of increas-
ing the car supply had the opposite
effect, at least on certain roads and In
certain fields. Mines served by the
Chesapeake and Ohio were handl-
capped to a very material extent by
a paucity of cars the first signs OF
which were evident when only $500
cars were placed for all mines on the
road named, that being only an SO per
cent placement, the result being the
production on the road was cut down
to 14S,0O0 tons. AS might have been
expected under such circumstances,
the car supply was decidedly of color
when there was only 66 per cent sup
ply available.
