DONATIONS FOR FIRE
ALARM BELL

The Pilot has been authorized by the
Whitetish Volunteer Fire department to
give space in the paper to a subscription
column, for the purpose of raising funds
to secure fire alarm bell, to be put up
at the fire hall.
At the last meeting of the department
a number of the members reported that
they had had expressions of opinion
from many of the property owners of the
town favoring the raising of fund to
purchase fire bell, and that all had
signified their willingness to contribute
to such fund.
That an adequate alarm is needed
there is no question, and it should be
secured if possible, in order to secure full
fire protection, but the department did
not feel like going to property owners
personally for subscriptions, realizing
that the subscription proposition in
Whitefish has already been worked to
about the limit. In view of the fact,
however, that so many people have ex-
pressed desire to contribute to such a
fund, it was decided to handle the mat
ter in this way.
Anybody desiring to aid in securing a
bell is requested to leave their subscrip-
ton at The Pilot Office, and list OF all
donors to the fund will be published,
and run in the paper until sufficient
funds have been secured, or until the de-
partmcnt is convinced that the property
owners are not sufficiently interested to
pay for a bell.
The department would like to raise
about $3.50, in order to have money
enough to pay for the bell desired, and to
meet the expense OF erecting bell tower
at the fire hall and placing the bell.
The following subscriptions have been
handed in I'D to this time:

kept wondering what was going to
happen.
When Mr.. Bowscr came home Mon

some excitement and raise row In the
back yard, and Mrs. Bowser tried in

she asked Mr.. Bowser why he didn't

simply shook his head.
Tuesday was almost counterpart Of
