It is operated on thermostatic principles. and is really a combination 'fire alarm and burglar larm, It is in the form of a disc which may be attached to the wall and in case of fire, a sys- tem of colored bulbs will show just where the blaze is located. If placed in a garage, it will detect any one tampering with the doors or win- dows and in all cases of alarm rings a bell.

ST, PAUL'S CHOIR ENJOYS SOCIAL The members of St. Paul's church choir held a most enjoyable Hallow- e'en social Thursday evening with an attendance of nearly fifty who carne dressed in costumes of all des- criptions and colors, and these to- gether with the decorations of black and yellow presented a gay spectacle. Some time ago it was decided to have a contest for regular attendance at both, choir rehearsals and services,. and Miss Doris Fells and Mrs. Johnston were chosencaptains, the losing side to provide an , entertain- ment 'for all the members. The los- sing side was Miss Fells', but the opinion of all was that they 'were good losers, as there had never been a more successful festival given. All kinds of games and contests had been provided, which were much enjoyed; and Messrs, Nortrop and Spittall ren- dered solos which received hearty en- cores. When the fun was 'at its height the light were suddenly ex- tinguished and very weird looking. ghosts appeared on the scene. Mrs. .Dawson acted in the capacity of a fortune teller, and created ea great deal of amtasement. At the conclusion of the program,. a bountiful Hallowe'en luncheon was served.
