a 3 phase, 220 volts, 2 horse power
motor. The apparatus costs $260
and was got by the council on thir
ty days trial. On Saturday the
electrician finished installing the
connections and gave It a try out.
Most people thought the alarm was
not loud enough, but being new,
proper adjustment may not have
been reached as yet. It is claimed
the siren can be heard for ten miles.
Do not be disturbed if the fire
alarm sounds at noon as that is the
time selected for several days to try
it out.

twentyfive to fifty letters a day.
Clarence Irwin o f Independence,

He was held to the grand jury on
