and Installed.

San Angelo can boast of rapid
strides during the last twelve
months on all lines. The era of
good buildings has come over the
city. Better streets" is a happy
realization. Better sidewalks are
assured. Everything betokens
advancement.
In no department of civic life,
however, has there been more i'm
provement than in that of fire
protection. The Press began agi-
tating the question last Septem-
Der, hammered at it until the
business men became fully alive
to the Importance of better fire.
fighting facilities. Finally the
city council took it up and with
the people of San Angelo endors.
ing the city government by n
large majority in hardly fought
campaign, the better fire protec-
ton is at last a realization. Yes

was received and put on exhibi-
ton for the benefit of those peo.
pie who cared to see it. The
Press preventative called on
Chief Freeland and was shown

with two men aboard. Eleven
dremen added made it weigh
$50. 1t carried when weighed

feet of / inch hose and 100 fl Of
4 inch chemical hose. 1t is made
by the Seagrave Co., Columbus,
Ohio, and bears the inscription,
"No. 1, San Angelo Fire Depart
ment."
This is but the beginning of
the creation of a fire department
worthy of the city of San Angelo.
Other new things will be added in
time and a few years from now
this branch Of San Angeles civic
life will be on Il par with those OF
any city of like size in the South.
The Press congratulates the
fire department. on this new ac-
QUESTION, the people of San An

San Angelo and her people-the
best there is.
