Fire Chief Talbot explained that the truck was carrying five hundred feet of hose and that there was 250 feet of new hose on order, besides three hundred feet at the power house which was available at any time. All told there is in the town 1450 feet of hose. Ald. Mannell brought up the quesâ€" tion« of the fire truck going to fires in the township and while away there being only about 400 feet of hose left in the fire hall on one of the hand drawn hose carts. He did:not believe that this was enough hose to guaranâ€" tee protection should a fire break out in town while the truck is absent. He thought that the four hundréed feet of hose sent to Grimsby East should have been kept in town. Livingston avenues and Murray street are again complaining about the smoke nuisance from the plant of the Growers Cold Storage and Ice Co. It was reported that the Company has done everything in its power to abate this nuisance but the only soluâ€" tion to the problem will be the arrival of Hydro power in Grimsby when the whole plant will then be operated by white coal.
