thoroughly overhauled, cleaned

was also the hose cart, and the
name Mohawk discarded. The
name chosen for the new company
was Fort Meigs Fire Engine Co.,
No. l" land this name was carried
as long as the company existed.
The old brick building which stood
for so many years ON Front street
just east OF Louisiana avenue, ip
the rear of what years ago was
Hitchcock's dry goods store, was
acquired by the town for an engine
house and fire headquarters. The
front of the building had to be
entirely rebuilt in order to make
the doors large enough to admit
the engine. There was great
deal of enthusiasm manifested by
all the members of the engine and
hose companies, and in short
time they were provided with ap-
propriate uniforms and other
necessary paraphernalia. Regular
meetings were held, and stated
times appointed for practice and
drills, and be it said that for long
time the members were very faith
ful in their attendance on practice
and drill nights. All of those who
composed the fire department were
employed all day but they gave
generously and unselfishly Of their
time after their work was over to
the upbuilding of our fire depart
ment, but in some few instances
they scarcely received the credit
to which they were justly en-
titled. The company was well dis
ciplined and efficient, and had the
town furnished them with light
er engine, one that could easily
have been taken to the places
where it was needed, it would have
been better for all concerned.
Much Of the criticism was from
those who owned property which
they desired fire protection for,
but they themselves were unwill-
ing to become members of the
volunteer fire department, nor
were they willing to encourage it
by their financial support.
The Mohawk was used here for
several years, and when the vii
lage authorities finally gave the
town a new and up-to-date hand
fire engine it was sold to George
Albert, Sr., for junk. The wheels
and running gear were still in
good shape when finally disposed

said Colonel Roosevelt. For over two
years Germany has heaped insult upon
insult. injury upon injury, on our peo-
pie. We did not even dare to prepare
so as to be able effectively to resent
wrong in the future. Our supine in
action was partly due to the folly en-
gendered in our people by the pro-
fessional pacifists. But an even more
important factor was the dread many
of our politicians felt, not merely OF
the German army abroad but of Ger
man votes at home. The selfishness
and shortsightedness of the American
politicians were indefensible. and they
were due to the fact that the men who
took the lead in the German Amer
