Bummerside Fire

_ Department Essay Competition Prizes 111a local fire department have decided to award prizes as follows

for the winners in their essay com- petition:

01.35, ﬁrst prize ....... $5.00 Second prize .. ., 3-00 Third prize 2.00 OM53. First prim 5-00 ._. Second Prize .. . 8-00 ‘ ‘ Third prize 2.00

'.l‘he m-iginal intention was to give but two prizes in each class but the department have nowdecided that s further division oi’ the prize money into three awards would create more interest in the com- petition.

The closing date of the competi- tion is June 1st and it is hoped that as many entries as ‘possible will be received by the Department. This work of Fim Prevention is very necessary to the present 86n- eration who are inclined m be less careful than older people who be- {qm the present efficient fire fighting equipment was designed have witnessed many scenes oi’ smoking ruins which were once happy homes.

In the Town o! Summerside this fire prevention is nothing new or recent, but it is one of the prin- ciples upon which our present civ- ic government is founded. In 1856 the citizens had the local legislat- ure enact. a bill which empowered the residents oi tho town "ht the instance of the county magistrate to elect from among their citizens nine men each your to serve as firewardens and assessors." The du- ties of these men were identical with those oi the present day town councillors but on account oi their important duties in the prevention and fighting of fire they were known es fire wardens. This act further provided that "each house- holder procure s leathern bucket of capacity of at least two gallons upon which the name of the owner was to be painted in large letters. This bucket was to be hanged near the entrance oi ths house where it would be readily available in case of fire." The act further provided (hi-t each householder have suffi- cient ladders on the premises to much to all parts of his property. In the case oi fire a bucket line was formed from the town pump to the scene of the conflagrution and the buckets were passed from

our recent day equipment this manner of fire fighting must have been very slow and inefficient and It is not surprising that in the '78!“ above mentioned the subject E0! lire prevention was given much mncem by the citizens.

Tho fire department inform us that they are receiving 1007, 50-0w IfB-tlon from the citizens 1n, the procuring of prizns and we hope m” many 01' U"! Younger people will take the opportunity of win- Ilind one of the cash prizes and improving his or her kn0v\'l¢~;;,;,-. of tire prevention.

CHICAGO, May 24-40.?)- Ssmples of what Santa Claus will leave in young North America's stocking next December] were on display here at the American Toy Fair, largest annual exhibit of boy manufactures. And these samples, of which there were nearly 50,000 included.

And has the little red wagon gone modern! It struts stream lines an electric headlight and "skirts" on its wheels. '

‘The toys have gone workable. There's a. little washing machine that can get results on dolly! soil- ed socks, and a fire engine that pumps water. There's a. new outfit whereby e. mechanical-minded youngster can make his own army of metal soldiers.

In general, one might character- ize the toys as largely educational -nnd to this, William C. Iehmsn, president of the toy manufacturers‘ Association, credits the steady in- crease in sales even in recent not- so-prosperous years.
