HARRINGTON

pany was held Monday evening, with
very small number in attendance. TIL
regular routine of business was gon
through and the amusement committee
consisting of Jas. L. Harmstead, S. {
Bailey and W. b. Fleming, were in
structed to select equipment to put poe
table in first class shape and to purchas
other games for the members. From re
ports that have been heard outside, w
are inclined to think that the newl
elected Secretary in the Town Council i
not favorable to the present club hous
of the firemen. 1t is reported that he re
fused to sign the order to purchase Goa
for the heating plant. Kind readers yol
certainly must know that your Fir,
Company will not be up to standard. i
you persist in trying to close their clul
rooms. In addition to heat furnished tn,
club room, we must have a fire in tn,
engine room. Again we wish to call thi.
matter to the attention of the skeptics
who persist in circulating the report
that gambling is INDUCED in, in the
rooms. This is strictly against the rules
and regulations and is not allowed. Fol
the benefit of those who have made these
statements, we respectfully invite you
to drop in any night you choose for the
purpose of satisfying yourself along
these lines. The latch strings always
hang on the outside.
