Preparations Are Being Made
for the Event Which Promises
to be a Good lino
.1
The South Norwalk Fire Depart-
ment fair opens on Monday night and
will last until the Monday following.
And the fire laddiss want the people
to show how much they appreciate
their never-failing services by liber-
ally patronizing this fair and making
it a happy all-around success, finan-
cially, and in all other ways that only
ample public support and interest can
accomplish.
Without our fire lboys, think what
would happen 'when the devastating
flames enter our homes and local in1
dustrles, by which we, as a community,
are sustained. In this instance, the
fire boys have sounded the alarm; the
alarm for your aid.
There is not much poetry in what
has just been said, but there is a pile
of serious truth in it and, perhaps it
may open up a new line of thought to
some of the people of this city. These’
are the days of relief funds, benefits,
and humanity taxes. In one word-111-
trttlsm. The people, as a unit, from
every corner of the country, have
shown an altruistic spirit in their on-
deavor to alleviate the sufferings of
the unfortunate thousands whose and
fate it was to fall in the flood and fire
which swept our Central States. This
is a terrible instanCo ot‘ calamity.
With us the the tire boys, as our pet‘-
petual guards against contiagratlon, at
wms ready to defend us.
I-,lerc in South Norw alk opportunity
for altruism presents itself in a dual
role, which, at this time. needs little
comment. .We have a. ,flne tire depart-
ment, and we are told by thbse who
know, that there is none better in this
ter anywhere. A volunteer department
.of two big companies, the membership
comprising largely of our best citi-
zens, men who have made South Nor-
walk what it is today; men who have
nothing to gain but a sense of duty
well done, by lighting the city‘s fires,
and who have nothing to lose by not
doing so. These men have shown their
alttuistk spirit. They would have
who know them had they merely con—
tinued to be the good citizens that
they are otherwisewfor only good cit-
izens can be good ilremcltmrunning at
noble work of saving.
Those uho (on are urged to donate
ill‘iklt‘ii for the booths. others are urg
ed to patronize those booths; and all,
are urged to support the departmentl
in Mary way possible. Thus, by it.
process for which the single word, all
truism stands as the formula, good
may be ucrompiluhed to two factions.
One. the cotnmunilymltu inhabitants,
their property and liluir welfare. The
other, in itself, a part of lilo first, and

Clay sold the house to another negro
named Patterson, and when the latter

When Sheriff Thomas Courtney and

Soon after their arrival Collins held
