Dear Opinion.-Some one asked
b a question the other day, which
was wholly unable to answer,
ID, as I presume many of your
aders are interested in the reply,
send it to you, with the request
ut all answer may be given through
ur columns.
ave have a good FIRE engine and
Regular organized company" said
is person, "and houses that are Ii.
p to burn, but, if should find my
buse on fire in the middle of the
ght, l should rot know how to
We the alarm and call out our Fire
department."
Now will some one give us some
Inple and definite instruction in
gard to the quickest aud best
ay Of giving an alarm, in case a
re is discoveredi We do not in>
nd to burn up, if it can be avoid
and so we desire to be prepared
r any emergency.
In reply to the above question
e would say that on our Engine
louise there is bell, placed there
the Fire Company, at their own
kpense, which was intended ex.
ressly for giving FIRE alarms ; but
DO company and Fire District have
cen in the habit of ringing it for
II meetings held at the Engine
House, aud in consequence of this
|olnmon use, we presume that many
10 not understand what the bell
Fas placed there for. But the Fire
department uu derstand the use Of
Le bell on any occasion, and if oc>
occasion requires any one to give
he alarm they have only to SO to
he Engine House, take down the
toy from its place inside the door
'asing, at the upper left-hand cor>
Ter, open the door and pull the
Opc which hangs at the left hand
