Echoes from the Fire Sept. s.

The fire engine showed what it was
worth to us when a real fire was rag
ing. Had there been no engine and no
fire department, the toll taken would
have been much greater. The float IN
the carbureter stuck soon after 1t was
started, making few minutes shut
down necessary. After this it ran
steady as a clock for several hours
under the hand of chief engineer, Har-
lev T. Martin.
Fire Chief Heney of Barre was a
tower of strength. Our fremen mad
plenty of grit and courage, but Barre's
chief knew just what to do and when
to do it. His experience and skill IN
fire fighting were invaluable at the
critical moment when it seemed as If
the fire could not be stopped short OF
Main street. The appreciation OF the
people of Williamstown OF his contri-
button to the efforts of the local men
should be given a tangible form.

as a student at Trinity College, and
has room. in the college hall. Dur
ing his three years of study abroad
he will devote as much of his time as
possible to the study of medicine.
| While hailing from Machias, Mr..
Powers was born in Gardiner. the
date of his birth being May 81, 1898.
His father, William L. Powers, now
principal of The Washington State
Normal School here, was then princi-
pal of the Gardiner High school. The
son graduated from the Machias
High school in 1915, was the young
est member in his class and had the
salutatory honor at graduation. In
September of. that year he entered
Bates college, from which his father
graduated in 1888, graduating in
1919. While in college he was active
in various college organizations, and
was one of the Ivy Day speakers and
class orator at graduation. He was
active in baseball and football, and a
member of the track team for four
years. In his junior year with
Edward burlington of his class he
won the State intercollegiate cham
pionship in tennis doubles for two
successive years. In his junior year
with Edward burlington of his class
he won the State intercollegiate
championship in tennis doubles for
two successive years. In their junior
year Powers and Purington were
runners UP in the New England In
tercollegiate tennis tournament at
Longwood. He was also prominent
in music in college.
Immediately following his junior
year Mr.. Powers spent six months in
the study of sanitation and public
health at the Massachusetts, Institute
of Technology, three months Of which
time he was member of the Student
Army Training Corps. The course at
the institute was taken in order that
he might fit himself for a sanitation
engineer with the expectation of GO
ing to France to serve in that capac-
ity. But the Armistice came and his
plans in this respect were changed,
He was at that time offered a posi-
ton at West Point, but declined It
and returned to Bates College and
finished his course there.
Following his graduation from col.
lege, Mr.. Powers was elected sub.
master Of the Bar Harbor High
school and director Of athletics there.
This position he filled with marked
ability, and it was with regret to
many in the school and outside that
he resigned after a years service
upon receiving appointment for spe-
cial work in England az a Rhodes
scholarship student.
