NEW FIRE SIREN IS NOT UP TO EXPECTATIONS . Citizens of McHenry were more or less disappointed with our new fire siren, located on the roof of the Fox River Valley State bank, which was given its second test last Saturday noon. For some reason, not as yet .discovered by city officials, the "screech" does not carry as had been anticipated. As a matter of fact a number of residents of the West Side failed to hear the siren at all and others, who happened to be out-of- -doors at the time, did not take notice Of the alarm until their attention had been called to it. Just what is to be done to make the siren satisfactory is a matter of conjecture altho some teem to think that the turning of the device so as to throw the sound to the fast and west instead of the north Ond south would do it while others proclaim that the siren must be elevated to much greater height. The fity council, no doubt, will recommend i$ertain changes to be made. , v • • • < * • / * < • , - ' . 7 . . « " iiJ" . -is's -if --i' river, near Burton's Bridge, Sunday afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. A.
