could be, and what chances of fortune
had brought him to such a solitary
existence. While he busted himself
about preparing their supper they were
noticing the contents of the room. Sus-
pended from the walls were guns. axes,
cooking utensils, etc. On a shelf at
one end of the room stood a rude clock,
and opposite WAS the head of a deer,
with large antlers. from which hung
clothing and skins of various kinds.
Just over the clock the eyes of Ole Bull
came to pause, playful smile lighted
his face as he quietly signaled his friend
to notice. There they hung, violin
and bow, in apparently good order, and
showing marks Of recent use. Langdon
foresaw the opportunity, and said moth

Chief jackson and Assistant Chief Cook,
and all and Sundry, the tiller men, driv-
ers, sidemen. stokers and hoStlerS, their
names and their daily lives and associa-
tions are subjects of daily and hourly
consultation on the part of the jOcund
juniors, ali of whom are commercially
infused with an ambition to be in mti-
mate relationship with the citY'S regular
fire laddies.
1t is treat to hear these kids learn
edly discuss the merits of the de-
partment, the personnel of the Of
ticiaIs and their general deport-
ment. The IRE wardens OF the town
could get many pointer from these
profound discussions. Among the stars
of the new organization are: "BoomUle"
Spanenberg, assistant chief; H"nnie
Meyerding. first truckman; Herman
Won Boston, sideman; Wallie Spanen-
berg, driver; Willie Eldridge. sideman;
"Arty" Cummings. ladderman; Barney
Goodman, chaplain; Hennie Brugge-
man, first assistant tillerman. The high
mogul of the juniors is Fred Hanmore,
chief and general factOtum.
1t is to be regretted that the GLOBE is
unable to print photographs of this ag-
gregation Of fire-fghting talent The
picture of Chief Hanmore alone graces
the GLOBE on this occasion. At a fut-
ure- time we shall perhaps have the
pleasure of grouping the company on
some Jccasion when they are arrayed in

hats cooked archly on their brows as
they parade on some fine spring day
