There has been considerable talk as
TO the probable time which IL might
take the IRE department 10 make the
run from the fire hall to the extreme
end OF Crystal avenue within the limit
OF the habitable portion. The false
alarm last Monday was productive OF
one good thing, and that was the
solving OF this problem. Captain
Richards timed the boys and found il
10 be just four minutes from the time
he telephoned until the hose cart ar
rived at o. Il. LarSOn's house. When
IL Is considered that the alarm had TO
be given at the fire hall, the COM
pany assembled and heavy cart
hauled up hill all OF the distance, the
record Is a remarkable one. Chief
Holmes may certainly feel proud Of
his department.

tiOns get the idea that they can't fool

be able 20 discriminate i'm advance be-
tween the good and the bad.
