ON THE JoB
Though Money Realized From
Street Fair Is Not Sufficient to
Pay Expenses of Forthcoming
Convention
A meeting of firemen, at which
all the companies of the Sayre fire
department were largely represent.
ed, was held yesterday afternoon in
the rooms of R A. Packer hose
company on Desmond street. The
general impression was that yester-
day's meeting would determine
whether the Sayre fire department
would disband. In that event the
town would be face to face with a
proposition of serious proportions,
for the lack of organizad fire pro-
tection in a town the size of Sayre
is no laughing matter. Cool heads
and sound judgment prevailed at
the meeting, however, and there
was very little talk of disband-
ment, and Sayre today is enjoying
just as adequate fire protection as
it ever did.
The meeting organized by elects
ing John Hammond chairman and
Ray Lamont secretary.
The first topic that came up for
discussion was the bill of $12 ren
dered by the borough for police
protection at the street fair. A mo-
tion passed to pay it. This morn-
ing there seems to be a difference
of opinion regarding this bill. A
member of the firemen's street fair
committee stated that yesterday's
meeting had no authority to act on
any business that concerned the
street fair,
A report was made of the finan.
cial outcome of the street fair. The
total receipts were $34206 and up
to Saturday the total amount of
money paid on the expense side
was £144.28, leaving an apparent
balance on hand of $197.78. But
there are outstanding bills amount-
ing to about $50.00, so the amount
actually realized from the street
fair will be less than $150.00. The
street fair seems to have been
managed economically. The fires
men on the committee worked long
hours without price, and a lot of
them lost eight days’ employment.
The $wo largest bills were as fol-
lows: Electric lights, $6623;
lithographs and posters furnished
by the proprietors of the carnival,
857.00.
The object of the street fair, as
everybody knows, was to provide
funds for holding the Valley fire-
men's convention in Sayre in Sep-
tember. The amount needed for
this purpose is about $400 00, and
as the firemen will have only
$150.00 to their credit, the conven-
tion will not be held here unless
the balance can be raised. Just
what method will be employed to
provide the needed balance is prob-
lematical. A resolution was passed
instructing the chairman to appoint
a committee of three, representing
the whole fire department, to take
up the matter with the borough
council and also with the Business
Men's Association. The personnel
of the committee was not deter-
mined at the meeting, but the de-
partment officers—chief and two
assistants—may be selected for this
duty.

but nearly everybody succeeded in
keeping dry. The evening was fine,
