The regular weekly meeting OF
the Harrington Rotary Club was held
last week at the Green Lantern Tea
Rooms, along the State Highway.
Horace E. Quillen, the president,
presided over the meeting. The
progrIn for the evening was in
charge of Prof. ]. C. Messner and
! the guest speaker of the evening was
Miss Sallie Winfrey, who used for
her subject, Vocational Guidance as
Approached by the Public Schools
of Delaware.
Adding two more alarms of fire to
their total thus far this year, the
local fire laddies have responded to
fourteen calls. The first of the two
calls yesterday occurred shortly af-
ter s o'clock when they were sum
moned to the Clifton farm, short
distance out of FELTON,, ON the Fred
erica road, where a chimney fire was
in progress. The farm is tenanted by
, George Wyatt. Only slight damage
resulted when the firemen were
forced to chop through the attic
floor to get at the fire. The second
call for the day was another Chin
ney fire on Railroad street, at the
home of G. ]. Bird. The property is
owned by F. Brown Smith. The fire
was eXtinguished in about ten min
utes without any damage to the
property. Checking over reports it
has been found that about 80 per
cent of the chimney fires originate
from the old style air-tight stove in
which large pieces of wood can be
used. They are accustomed to do a
great amount of sweating especially
with green wood and this together
with the SCOT soon makes a chimney
foul and easily susceptible to fire.
Saturday morning the local fire
company. responded to the EnOch |
Poore property on Clark street, to
extinguish a bad chimney fire that |
was in progress there. The resi- |
dence is used as an apartment and |
is occupied by Mrs. Rosie Baker and |
Mr.. and Mrs. Wesley Mitchell. The i
firemen eXtinguished the fire and |
were back in their qquarters in fif-
teen minutes.
