Social functions connected with the
fire department and the distinction OF
wearing . uniform were the greatest
inducements to the young men be-
tween is and "a years OF age to join
the company. These were the recol-
lections of Mr.. Watson, q memebr OF
the hose reel crew, whose picture was
reproduced in the Palladium several
Saturdays ago.
Mr.. Watson said the men gave biz
dances, carnivals and parades when all
would appear in their respondent uni
forms.
Pulled Hose Cart.
When the gong called the volunteer
firemen from their beds or from their
workshops they rushed to the engine
house, where they caught the long
ropes attached to the hose reel and
pulled the wagon through the street at
breakneck speed. As soon &s enough
reached the engine house to pull the
cart, the apparatus was on its way to
the fire. Other memoirs OF the de-
partment fell in as the reel moved
along the roads. !
Mr.. Watson also recalled that all WAS
not harmony in the early days of the
department. After long hours OF hard
work the men would often indulge In
free use OF liquors while snatching a
few moments rest. Upon returning to
their labors. quarrels would arise and
often several members Of The company
would be engaged in hitter fistic COM
bat while the blaze cDGcked merrily In
some good citizens arlor.
Other men who ave been identified
on the old photograph are: Edward
Lancaster, Earl Brown, Charles Sinnex
and 1. G. Dougar with the 1850 engine:
John Mason, James Parson, Earl
Brown andsAl Morrow with the 1871

Like a sensible and progressive little plant it does not blush unseen on the desert.
 Just think of the 3dvantage of such flower How inexpensive it will be to show ones patriotism, for the junior senator flom Yavapai says it will make a charming decoration. In suggesting other ways of making the scarlet bloom a eneral favoritc she mentioned corsage boquets. but Confidentally declared her preference for something more decorative-like orchids or lilies of the valley The red Indian for a button hole, is out of the question. she contended. trt then it has many other good qualities. there is it's longevity to he taken you know.

Music of the nations at the Woman's club yesterday afternoon attracted a gathering that in numbers and enthu- siasm rivaled the thropgs that crowded the club house on previous years when Mrs. w. E.

In the center of a great cluster of scarlet and white carnations was an American flag and as songs of the nations were sung, their flags were added forming pyramid of penants and blossoms.
 Charles Wakefield Cadman, the bril- hant young American composer, read a well prepared paper on Community Music. Music should be endorsed and aided by the community according to MT. Cadman. He said he regretted to note the jealousy he frequently found to exist among musicians. which un- d9rmined the foundation for the ideal harmony with which they should work together He cited as various ex- amples several eastern cities where the community plan" has been success fully tried. A group of Mr Cadmans exquisite songs found place on the well balanced program.
 Mrs. P. J. Mathers and Miss Mabel Novinger contributed to the enjoyment with two dance numbers They danced extremely well and their costumes in both the German and Spanish num- bers were correct in every detail. They delighted all by their graceful execu- tion
