One chief.
One assistant chief.
Nine regular station men.
Total, eleven men; also two fire
alarm operators.
To the assistant chief, Walter L.
Garrison, and to each member Of the
department, I desire to extend my
sincere thanks for the efficient serv-
ice rendered. 1t is largely due to
their effective work that the fire
losses during the past year have not
been heavier. They have been faith
full, prompt and intelligent, and loyal
in the discharge of their duties. l
also desire to thank the honorable
mayor, Ed. S. Lotion, and Commits
sioners D. j. Kenny and T. J.
Hickey, for the interest and kindness
they have shown in department
affairs and for the assistance given
me, which is generally appreciated.
Dated Keokuk, Iowa, April 2, 1920.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN ANDERSON,
Fire Chief.

TWIN CITIES DISCUSS
UNION HIGH SCHOOL

MILTON, Jan. 31.-Despite the
judges decision to the contrary, SEN
timent for the proposed union high
school seemed favorable at a meeting
of the Dry Creek Literary society held
in the school house four miles west
of Milton when the question, "Resolv-
ed That District No. 20 Will Be Ben
Iefited by Joining the Proposed Union
High School" was debated.
The affirmative of this question was
supported by NJ. F. Hubbs and ]. G.
Hickman of East Side. while Floyd
Coffman and r. L. Hubbs argued the
negative side. After lively discus
sion the negative was given a decision
by the judges.
Following the debate several short
talks were given concerning the union
school district by a number of prom
nent citizens. Among those present
rom the twin cities were e. f. Elliott.
head of the Smith Hughes work in the
local schools. Principal Harry Bow

spreading the fame of the climate of
the Grants Pass district.
The members OF the club will agree
20 wear suits of khaid during all bust
ness hours from now until fall. with a
price limit upon the suits which they
will purchase later. The agitation for
such an organization was started
several days ago, T.. T. McESinstry be-
ing its promoter, and IL has gained
such headway that President Bram-
