found in Stroudsburg and Monroe

more, / desire to turn over the town
to you during your stay"
Representative Rogers L. Burnett,
Of Stroudsburg, said: Whether, af-
ter twenty years of its existence, the
Firemens' Association of the State Of
Pennsylvania has accomplished or is
slNi hn oh
poses of its organization, and attain
ing those ends and aims which its
projectors had in view, can perhaps
be more satisfactorily answered by
those older and more experienced in
this work than I, and whose knowl-
edge of the subject is more intimate
and more extended than mine could
possibly be-
Speaking for myself, however, with
the lights at my command and the
observation I have been able to make,
! would say without any hesitancy
whatsoever, that the Firemens As
sociation of the State of Pennsylva-
mia, during the twenty years of it's
existence, has accomplished untold
good to the several fire organizations
throughout the state, and that the
DeneItS OF 'nG state association TO all
firemen. which is the immediate sub
tect of this paper, have been beyond
my power, at least, to adequately es-
innate"
