REMINGTON FINANCIERS
 TO DISCUSS FIRE HOSE
Board Meets Tonight and Is Expect ed 10 Dispose of Disputed
 Questions

Newington Oct. 29.-Chairman G. Ernest Root of the finance board has called q meeting of that board for this evening at the home of George W. Haubury at the center. No definite announcement has been made as 10 what business will be transacted at the meeting but it is expected that the matter of appro- priating a sufficient amount to buy fire hose for the vountce fire de partmont will be discussed
 This subject was taken up at the annual town meeting and much heated discussion arose because the finance board had refused to ap- prove an appropriation of s600 to buy 600 feet of hose There were arguments pro and con, some believ- ing that it was simply a center fire district matter and others that it concerned the whole town. It was finally voted 10 ask the finance board to reconsider it's decision since it was the sense of the meeting that such an appropriation should be made.
 MT. Root has made no announce ment as to how the members of the board will vote on the matter this time. However. it Is expected that, since the majority of voters at the town meeting were in favor of the project, the board will consider the matter favorably. The outcome of the meeting is awaited with interest The subject has been discussed out side from several different angles and the adverse decision of the board has caused a great deal Of criticism since the annual town meeting.
 The teachers and officer of the sunday school of the NeWington Center Congregational church held a meeting in the parish house last evening. \ supper was served at 6:3o o'clock and the usually business was transacted.

PROVING THE RULE

When youngster in college shows

When he wastes his good time in an
effort to learn
What the studies he takes are
about,
When he pays but scant. heed to col
legiate sport SIS *49t FL IN /
And has nothing but books on his
mind
His classmates conclude he's, a pretty
poor sort
In fact he is only grind
When reverend seniors unbend now
and then,
Becoming less grave and severe
And, forgetting their status as great
learned men
They give green frosh the right
steer,
They observe in the lofty and digni-
I fled tone
That seniors know how to employ,
"You must learn to let text books
severely alone
For grind is mutt, little boy"
Thus the untutored youth who might
otherwise deem n
That the work of school or a
college
Is to breed in his bosom lasting
esteem
For the various branches of knowl-
edge.
Is saved from the folly of wasting
his days
AS. no manly young gentleman
should
For, before from the pathway of wis
dom he Strays
He is taught that a grind is no
good.
And though now it turns out that a
hard toiling grind
Whose labors were long and severe
And who spent his Semesters improv-
ing his mind
Earned forty-five thousand year
The red-blooded college men have to
admit
That the fellow has done pretty
well.
But it does not affect their opinions
a bit
They observe that you never can
