THE ASHEVILLE GAZETTE-NEY73 Monday, February 1, 1915. NEW EQUIPMENT FOR DEPARTMENT Local Firemen Receive New Devices That Greatly Add to the Department.. "The Thinkers of the - Country Are the mm UL i h said one of the greatest thinkers this country ever produced. iff rVi) 5qys the Farmer: " When a man asks me what Fll take for my cotton I don't tV5C"even begin to tigure until 3 M A I w hart a rhPW Ot KHjJNIU' TWIST. " When your answer means something, it's then you want something to help vou do some quick, clear, sure thinking before you say anything." Last year the farmers made $9,000,000,000 worth of crops. They did some thinking, and PICNIC TWIST helped. Do you want a tobacco that will give you the "punch" today without the "bump" tomorrow? - . Then try PICNIC TWIST. In it you get only the mild, mellow part of the leaf. In these soft, convenient twists there's more satisfaction than there is in any dark, "strong" tobacco. "1 . n T CHEWING TOBACCO " The Thinkers of the Country Are the Tobacco Chewers " PICNIC gives you a sweet, long lasting chew with ' none of the " heavy " tobacco's " comeback." You can get a freshness-preserving drum of 11 PICNIC TWISTS for 50c.

Asheville has every equipment that any department of the state has and can boast of many new features which other de partments in this state do not have. Saturday an Eastman deluge set was received, the set being the very latest thing in use by the big metropolitan companies to fight the largest fires. The, set consists of a 16-foot hose, with connections on one end for three, two and one-half inch hose connections. On the other end, the nozzle rests on a tripod about three feet high, which 1b ar ranged so as to throw one, two or three streams. This nozzle can be made stationary or It can be unhook ed and taken up a ladder where the firemen can play It on a fire. There are five different nozzles, each or a flrrenet size and it Is flgur&k that with the heavy pressure on the local fire plugs that a stream coming from the nozzle which Is fed by three lines of hose will soon knock out a fire of any size.. In the equipment received is al so a hose clamp, which will be used to cut- off the water" without having to go back to the line. To ar. rive within the next few days Is a Baker cellar pipe, which will be used to fight fires in . basements. This ar rangement is entirely new and has only been used a short time by the biggest fire departments in the Uni ted States. Tests will be made some time soon by the firemen when the actual working of the equipment will be watched with Interest by the mem bers of the local department.

E. Barlow of the state bowling tournament that -s now In progress between six T. M. C.
