ONLY TWO COLLECTORS TO NEW CHARTER BILL
Assembly Committee Has Held
 Hearings-Expected To Act Soon

Only two persons voiced any objection to the proposed new Town Charter when the Act pro- viding for it's establishment was given public hearing before the City's and Borough's Committee of the General Assembly.
 The objectors were William A.. Evans and Mrs. Ralph Finley, both of the Blue Hills Section and both of whom opposed that section which provides for the seven mem bers of the Town Council to be selected at large, stating it should be changed to provide for three from each of the two voting dist ricts and one at large.
 Impressive pleas in favor of the Bill were made by Representative Harold Watkins, Chairman; Wll- bur c. Stauble of the Charter; Austin Lawler and Morris Cutler; and others who urged the adoption of the Bill as drawn, stressing the fact that it met the approval of Town Party Leaders and had been endorsed unanimously at special Town Meeting.
 At the request of the Board of Education, MT. Stauble had pre- viously presented an amendment providing that the members of the School Board be retired under staggered system. Neither the Charter Committee nor the organ ization it represents, it is said, had formerly considered making any change in the present school set-up.
 Representative Watkins who is promoting the passage of the Charter Bill expresses the belief it will be reported favorably and will receive the approval of the Assembly at an early date.

70 HEAD OF STOCK SAVED FROM FIRE
$3O,O0O Loss Suffered in End Big Fire on Local Farm

Fire completely destroyed the new 200-foot stock barn on the old Christian Peterson Farm on Terry Plains Road Saturday afternoon, February IT.
 N ore than TO head of stock were driven from the burning building to the safety of snow-covered pastures nearby. Three prize bulls and 6 horses which occupied an adjoining barn were also rescued.
 The blaze started about 3 pm. while workmen were loading bed ding straw into the upper story by means of a blower. Friction caused a spark, fire officials said, which burst into flame and spread upward through the blower into the storage loft, igniting many tons of hay and straw.
 Workmen released COWS from their metal stanchions on the main floor of the barn and called the Bloomfield Center Fire Depart ment. With no water available, the firemen were forced to confine ef- forts to saving the horse barn and two small buildings a short dis tance from the blazing structure, which threw out so much heat that spectators standing 100 yards away were forced to protect their faces.
 In less than 45 minutes from the time the blaze started the entire barn roof had burned through, set ting fire to three large silos i'm mediately behind it. The silos, with a total capacity of about 45O tons, were also destroyed. The entire barn structure was reduced to a tangled mass of ruins in less than 90 minutes. 1t was reported that the loss, estimated at $3O,0O0, is covered by insurance. The smoke and flames, which could be seen several miles away, attracted several hundred persons to the scene. The building and farm is now the property of the Imperial Agriculture Corporation.
 A similar fire occurred on the same farm during the summer of 194O when it was owned by Peter sen. The barn which occupied the site of the one just destroyed, was burned down and about 15 head of stock destroyed.

 He has spent most of the last two and one-half years on Bora Bora, Tahiti, and neighboring islands of the Society group doing army construction work. Accord ing to Gangell, these islands are inhabited by Polynesians and Free French. The natives, he states, are very friendly. Physically they are very fine race; they are tall and built well; their skin is light brown; their hair brown or black but never kinky. They are cheerful and intelligent, he says, but do not care for work.
 Most of the islands, he advises, are volcanic and fringed by coral reefs. ight-colored flowers add an air of gaiety to the covering of ferns and moss. The fish are gor- geous in their bright colors. Tahiti is the largest of the So- ciety group.
 While there, Myles visited at the American Cousel. He also served as Honor Guard to Mrs. Roosevelt on her visit to the islands. He spent time on Raiatia Island, New Hebrides, New Caledonia and Hawaii.

MAKE A REAL THANKSGIVING
BY CHARLOTTE A

For the first time in years we
have right and reason to be deep
ly thankful at the 1915 season of
harvest. We can have really top
notch Thanksgiving dinners and
a time. Many of the absent
friends we've toasted will be with
us this year in person.
So put your very best on the
table and give your Thanksgiving
guests reaso to be thankful The
silver, crystal and china must be
their sparkling best. A beautiful
white Irish linen damask cloth,
pressed without a wrinkle, is ex-
actly the right background. The
incest decoration for the center Of

fruit and nuts which the guests
al eat at the end of the meal

If you feel that ii isn't a party
without an opening course, how
ever. you'll probably please your
family best if you make the first
course a light one. A clear soup
is good, or oysters on the half
shell, if you have a fish-market
which will arrange and deliver
them at the right moment.
With the turkey you will, of
course, have either rice or pota-
toes to take up the gravy" Per-

almost as much as the bird itself.
Then, there should be onions in
some form - either .creamed or

accompaniment. Make the vege-
table a special one. Our grand
