I am not a member of, nor connected with, the Fire Council, but I had the privilege of attending the meeting at which they took up the proposition upon the report of-the committee rep resenting the Truck Company, and I never attended a meeting where a proposition was presented in a more fair and open manner. The chairman of the Committee said: “ Gentlemen, we have considered these tractors very carefully. We have seen both tractors in operation, and we consider them both good, but we have not been able to find any ad vantages that the Knox has over the Mack that we consider of enough im portance for us to recommend that you spend $200 mnre^or their apparatus. Either tractor is equally acceptable to The reception was one of the most largely attended of its kind ever held in this village, and clergy and congre gations from neighboring churches at tended. The chapel was prettily deco rated with flowers and Oriental rugs. Mrs. Fred Story was chairman of the reception committee, and she was as sisted by women and men of the church.
