tween the Beach st. crossing and the

cilities will allow the shifting of cars 
in the Manchester yard without re- 
sorting to the “flying” 
Sea street, which is responsible for 
many accidents, and it will also allow 
of a down grade start, instead of up- 
grade through the ledge toward

A still alarm was telephoned to the 
fire station at 2.05 o’clock Sunday 
afternoon from Coolidge’s Point. A 
grass fire in the vicinity of the home 
of Reginald Foster had gained con- 
siderable headway when the combina- 
tion truck arrived. A stream from 
the big chemical tank did not prove 
effective in checking the fire and 600 
feet of hose were laid béfore the 
flames were subdued. ‘The fire was 
stopped within a few feet of the 
house.
