Those who know me best know that I have always been very jealous of my freedom from bigctry of any kind.
 am very sorry for the whole unfortu- nate affair and I can see where ! made a mistake in ever mentioning the matter and wish to apologize publicly through

 Burgess of Stearns Hill. It should be
 made very clear that Chief Woodward has not asked or suggested that anyone
 buy him a car to use in carrying out his fire department duties. That idea orig. mated with members of the firemens as
 sociation and they have been working
 on it for long time. It is good one
 They like their chef and want to dt
 something for him and, with the help o1
 the public, are going to make their plar

 rows opportunity will afford the pub:s
 a chance to show them that their service are appreciated, and when it comes to little thing like buying a chler's car ro ! the department, the dear old public wi
