mitee will be elected, with the right
to consult the teacher on methods.
The working class revolutionary
movement is international. But how
did it arrive at this stage? What
dangers did it avoid? What was the
betrayal by the Second International?
What did the first International ac-
complish? What did Bakunin do?
These are among the questions to be
discussed by Arne Swabeck, who
knows the situation in the various
countries and in the Communist Inter
national.

New Fire Sirens Get
Both Test and Real
Service on Saturday

The first actual service of the new
system of sirens which has been In
stalled as safety measure to warn
people on Water street and neighbor-
ing congested thoroughfares of the
approach of the fire apparatus took
place Saturday afternoon at $50 when
the chehieal truck was called to 142
Northern avenue for a grass fire be-
hind the barn. This was extinguiShed
by the use Of the small chemical
tanks and brooms. ~,a
The periodic wailing. rising and fall
ing note of the three sirens, which
are actuated by a lever at the tire sta
tion and which start before the truck
has left the fire station, gave ample
warning to all that the truck was on
it's way and there is little doubt that
this system is a real safeguard to Pc
destrians and automobilists alike.
1t was first tried out about noon
Saturday and many people were aston
ished at the volume of sound which
the three sirens make, as then can be
plainly heard not only on Water street
but on the east side Of the river and
on State street as we'll. That they
will be rightly interpreted when heard
was clearly demonstrated by the mo
torman of an electric car who heard
them on the tryout when on the Ken
nebec bridge and at once brought his
vehicle to a stop.

HALL HAS HECTIC
DAYS AHEAD

Just as he has been busy man all
during the past winter, so will A. e.
Hall be kept busy this spring. His
regular business is that of moving and
wrecking houses. But he is also the
street commissioner of the city of Au-
gusta and the street commissioner
will be in for a rather stiff time of it
this season.
Winter has left its mark on about
every thoroughfare the Capital City
possesses. Roads will have to be re-
surfaced, cutters cleaned out and many
other things done that are so essen
tial to keep the highways right.
AS there is always a goodly amount
of remodelling in the spring, old
buildings will be torn down and IT is
pretty certain that there will be build
ings moved, so that even if he were
not guardian of the welfare of the
city's street Mr.. Hall would have his
hands full. But as he is a big man
and gets around with almost uncanny
speed, both of his Jobs will receive
adequate attention
