COURTESY APPRECIATED I wish to express my appreciation to A, S. Malcomson of the firm cpf Smitn & Malcomson for thy photos of the fire which we are able to publish ' in our issue this week. I might as weii admit that my contemporaries i' have stolen a march on me, and the only [ihotiigrapher in town declines to furnish me" with pictures of fires, claiming that he has received orders from then, to do this work for them. As competition is the life of trade, I am not kicking about this, but at the same time I am glad to iiublish this exceptionally intereating set of photo graphs in our issue this week.

As soon u.s things became straight- I ened out, with the men working in un j ison, the fire began to go down, and the recall was sounded at9;4(!, ul-i though none of the comiianies left un- ' til some time later. The fire wus con- i fined to the wing of the building in which it started with the exception ofl the small shop over Mr. Randall's | store, which waa burned out.

HO.NEST CRITICISM H^ELPS I have made this statement before in this column. Somebody asked me ut a recent fire (liandall's) why the engine compuny did not answer ull alarms, whether first or second, as an extra pressure would huve been of con¬ siderable hel;i while working at the blaze. I told him I thought they (lid, but I would inquire, which I did and I um informed that this order hus been ¦ in effect for some time, but it is an awful job to get horses. The man who took the hook and bidder truck to the fire unhitched his horses and took them, buck home and just missed being in time to take the engine out too on his return, before other horses were secured for this purpose.
A COOD GUESS
We sent an order for a subscription tl our esteemed contemporary, tho Nus.-HU Post, but h:ive been unable to secure the paper, und not beinj,' able to secure the paper fiom the local deal¬ ers or thru the nxiil, ve adopted a si'hoti-ie of sfndi:;g u messenger for one each week to their "main" ofiice. At the villi!' ol Ibis writing, Wcdnesiluy after,looii, V, e have been unable to de- C'i.;ii; <i co'iy of their issue which wns due last Saturd:iy.

They being young in the business, we would suggest to them that if they wish to continue they must adopt the policy of having their jiaper out on time, and not issuing it from one to three days late, und skipjiing some is¬ sues entirely. We huve found from long experience that the only way lo run a newspaper is to deliver it at the promised time.
WHY WON'T THEY HELP'.' The biggest hindrance to firemen working ut a fire is the person who per¬ sists in getting in the way. Frequent¬ ly "outsiders" help, hel[i immense^, and the assistance is appreciated but the man, woman or little girl who per¬ sists in getting in the way or refusing to get out of the way when requested, is a nuisance. I saw a flagrant case of this kind at the fire Monday    morn-
est is the cheanest in the long run. With thia idea in view, he has    con tracted for   this   bitulithic   pavement. The price for ihi.-   work   is   somewhat hit'lier ihi-.r, for a maciriHii.i/.d repair- in;.-,  bin   it   ba-   tins   advH:,;age    that wl.ile   no   guamni-.'e    is    g'ven   on   a ma''adiyii    roal.    the    Wavrtn    |iei pie guaruntee the bitulithic and keep it in ; irixtun repair, for live years fr-im tbe   time it i     We nsk is laid, under a h,"ivy iiond ; nnd a road j was the secret of tbei that will   stand   u;i   under   the    heavy j such an excellent t-i^llii.' .jf lhe    .Merrick   Roud   for    live years IS   certainly'u big   iir pr vi';:ent on anything that ha.^- tieen lai i i.i    this section before.    There are already sev eral small iiieces of   this   roud   in   the Town, one being in the center   of   the village of Hempstead, uni one   on   the muin streel in the busines.s  section   of Hockville Centre, both    of   which   are County highways.
