MUST KEEP OFF THE TRUCKS
Council, by an Ordinance, Says That
Firemen Only May Ride on the
Departments WAGONS,

The city council has passed an
emergency ordinance prohibiting any
person or persons riding on the fire
department trucks other than the fire
men themselves, with the exception of
those whom the chief of the depart
ment himself may invite or permit
The ordinance is printed in this issue
of The News, and those who violate
it will be liable TO fine or impriSon-
ment.
The enactment of this ordinance was
prompted by the fact that during cases
of fire, or during exercise hours, many
persons have taken the liberty of
mounting the trucks without invitation
or permission. In case of fire no
time could be taken to remove them,
and their presence on the wagons was
a source of inconvenience to the de-
partment.
The ordinance will be rigidly en-
forced.
