Monday, December 30, saw the most

ser ious f ire of the year in Narberth

when excelsior set ablaze in the base

ment of t he home of William Thomp

son, 103 Merion Avenue, started a fire

which c au se d damage o f $1100 to the

property. The alarm was sent in at

10:30 A. }'1.The fire is supposed to have been

started by a chi ld playing with matches

i; the basement. Excel sior caught fireand spread to inflammable parts of the

cellar. The damage was covered byinsurance.

Heavy c louds of dense smoke hindered the firemen a t t he ir work. Hose

lines were placed so as to pour streams

i nt o t he cellar a nd th e blaze was over

inside of twenty minutes. Due to theprompt action of the f ir emen, theflames were confined entirely to the

basement, and the upper parts of thehouse suffered only f rom smoke. Gasmasks, kept in the Fire Company's

equipment for such an emergency,proved unavailing in the dense smoke.Gre at c re di t is due t he Nar be rt h

Company in thi s fire, for without quickaction the b laze woul d have gatheredheadway, and gone right up through

the house.

Th e past year, whose obsequies havejust been celebrated, was remarkable

in many ways for community co-operation and progress in the Borough. Th eoutstanding achievcment was perhaps

the reorganiza t ion and vitalizing of therecreation program, brought about by

a renewed public interest, activities ofa cit izens' committee , the reorganized

recreat ion board and the school's play

ground policy with a new director incharge.

Of interest to all residents were the

A new year is l ik e a hill of snow-with no t a foo tmark orpath to mar its pure whiteness.

It is l ik e a sheet of artist's paper-smooth and clean, beforepe n or brush has made its transforming mark.

It is Opportunity, rich and g ol de n, f or t ho se who want tostart entirely new i n the pur su it of their particular kinds of happiness.

So we wish you "Godspeed" through the coming year, hopingthat you ma y see your objectives clearly, pursue them diligentlyan d culminate them successfully. Then we know that 1930 willbe a "Happy New Year. "

$IMPlEXIRONETTE~ e

Dontt miss it ; see it todayl The Ironette is

a beautiFul, compact, practical and efficient

electric ironer. It does everything. It irons

your own delicate lingerie as well and as

quickly as ments shirts, baby's things, chil

drents dresses, Rat work, everythingI

It does it in less than a third of the time, while

you are comfortably seated, really resting, merely

guiding the pieces through.

And when done with it just roll it out of the

way into any convenient corner or closet. Yet the

chances are you wouldn't even want to do that because the handy

electric Ironette is so beautiful you will take a lot of pride in

showing it to all your friends.

Most surprising-its price. For all its beauty,

its uncanny efficiency, the substantial man

ner in which it is designed and built-,fullyguaranteed by ourself and the manufac

turers, its price is only $99.50. Easy pay

ments gladly arranged.
