countered by fire apparatus in re-
spending to alarms. On some occa-
sions even the powerful motor trucks
have been stalled in the snow banks
and have required outside assistance.
A spectacular incident of this ma.
ture occurred recently in Bingham

motor fire wagon in responding to an
alarm got stuck in knee-deep snow
drift and never did get to the fire
Fortunately the fire did not amount
TO much and so the results were not
disastrous, but the problem of get
ting this truck back to the fire house
remained.
Chief HOag, however, came to the
rescue. The Chief drives a Cadillac,

extra weight in the tonneau to get

truck moved slowly at first, but soon
