Good Money Preventing Fires

Last year the fire losses of the United States reached the alarming total of over s250,000,00o. More than 15.000 lives were lost. A very large percentage of these losses were in small towns and on farms.
 Now, a large, nationally-known Ohio Corporation has taken a. step to prevent fires. They are appoint ing men of good character to repre- sent them in every community in the United States. The men they ap- point will act as their trained Fire Prevention Experts and receive an exceptionally good income for their services. No experience is required. The training will be given free to the men appointed. The work can be handled in either spare time or full time. Many are now making as high as $500 month in spare time. Any men in this territory who are inter- ested can get details by writing to Mir. Ray C. Hahn, 1917 Fyr-Fyter Bldg, Dayton, Ohio.-Advt.

Refuse Heap No Thing of Beauty,
 Valenti Sues Neighbors for $l500

Giovanni Valenti lives on Frank lin street. He has an artistic t..ii- perament and enjoys things of beau ty. He especially likes to have a clean, orderly, eand sweet-smelling yard, and when Nicola and Maria Bellini. next door neighbors. began to dump ashes and other refuse in their back yard until the pile grew and grew and grew and overflow.d into Valenti's back yard. the later thought it was time to call a halt.
 The police were asked to do somn- thing about the trouble. Valerti ssSd he did not like the looks of the refuse. He did not like the odors from the decaying pea pods, beet tops and cantaloupe shells. The po- lice referred him to the board of health.
 The board of health heard the story and referred Valenti to the po- lice. It was sortof ring around the rosy game, and Valenti was get ting nowhere. The refuse pile wJs getting somewhere, however. It was getting all over the Valenti estate, and even blocking the driveway, he claimed.
 Yesterday afternoon Valenti, bis patience worn out and his dignity ruffled, went to Prosecuting Attoc- ney Joseph G. Woods and told lis story. MT. Woods was impressed.
 What do you want me to do::" he asked.
 Sue the Bellinis for plenty" re- piled Valenti.
 So Attorney Woods started action against the Bellinis for damages Of $500 and asked for temporary in junction to prevent any further refuse being dumped on the pile until something permanent can ho done Papers in the action were served by Constable Fred Winkle and MT. Bellinis contracting tools and home were attached. The hear ing will be held on the court of com mon pleas next Thursday.

POLICE BOARD REJECTS
 REQUEST FROM PRIEST
Declines 10 Appoint His Nominee to Special Duty at Parish
 BaZaarS.

The board of police commissioners held a short meeting last night, vot- ing to appoint Stanley Sarnowski special officer to do duty on the premises of Holy Cross church on Pennington avenue, imposing a fine of two days pay on Officer John w. Riley for missing duty call. and granting 9 six months leave of ab- sence to Supernumerary Officer Will liam A. Burns.
 Rev. Stephen Bartowski, pastor of the Holy Cross church, asked that Sarnowski be detailed to do duty at parish affairs such as bazaars and similar events, but the board did not accede because of the department policy to give such assignments to pernumerary officers.
 It was voted to have a flight of stairs leading to the second floor of the police building re-treaded by Israel Wexler at a cost of S6O, and also to change the location of bat tery shelves at a cost of s45, this being necessitated by the installing of new beam in the fire depart ment building next to the police sta ton.
