' Mayor Everett Champion. go- ing into his fourth term of of- fice.‘ said he often receives in- quiries timm other towns about the success of the fire system. and several municipalities have ad 'v ai- set-ups. Mr. Champion said Kcnsington “has some of the best fire fighting cqul t for this size of town on e province”. He ’ “rural” program has proven very satisfactory over the past few years. Mayor Champion explained that residents in rural areas emington subscri co ! l womens institutes. and a small fee. tor fire protection through the Kensingto'n fire de- partment. HUNDREDS ENROL The subscription fees are bore of the between 500-600 people are emailed for protection. Following initiation of the pro gram some five years ago, a fund was established and from this a second pumper was pur- chased. This fund also made possible partially the construc- tion of the new fire hall. The old fire hail. located in the former post office building. was torn own and established in its place. building is adjoined now to tit- town ball. A new well was aso sunk them and a pump install- ed. This new pump dcliveres 150 gallons per minute and the total cost of the entire new re- novation program is in the vic- inity of $10,000. Mayor Chant. pioin said. This The most people were well pleased with the fire program since rural residents in a 10~mile radius thereby re. ceive practically the same ser- vices as the town for a norm- mal f ee.
