AUTO APPARATUS
KGaSbey to Get Ready for Annual
Meeting of FiremGn

KEASBEY, Feb. 1.-THE Board
of Fire Commissioners Of h fourth
district will meet tonight at the home
of Commissioner Louis e. Meyer. at
which time preparations will be made
for the annua election of fire COM
m~issioners, n also to fix the amount
of appropriation necessary for the
year.
The election, which will in all
probability be held on Saturday,

election OF such fire commissioners
as Is found necessary. but will also
decide whether or not Protection Fire
Company No. / of town, will secure
a motor driven fire apparatus.
Some time ago application Tor a
motor drawn apparatus was made by
the local firemen n the board OF
commissioners consented to allow a
special appropriation to be raised. The
citizens will have their choice at the
coming election.
Fords has already received a motor
drawn apparatus and the t~ownspeople
feel that the same protection is need
ed here. especially moro so, due to
the many plants in this district.

priation including the auto fire appa-
ratus will be. is to be decided at to-
nights meeting.

shores, not to beat them up" but to
educate them.
They should remember that these
people have been trampled upon for
centuries until everything like organ
lied government and organized reli-
gion Is looked upon by them simply
as machinery to oppose them further.
They have never experienced ana
cannot understand a government like
ours, founded on principles OF kind
ness and fair play.
Furthermore, the boys In doing
this will strengthen their W patri-
otism and educate themselves to the
meaning of the constitution.
Each foreign-bOrn lad that they
make into an American boy should
count as a scalp taken by them. An
old pioneer used to u a notch in
the stock of his CUR every time he
took a scalp, and each Boy Scout or
school boy who wins a convert TO
Americanism should be entitled to
cut a notch in the n or MS
camp ak or hockey stick or what
ever he values and wants to keep as
a record.
But II they will put an American
Eagle on the lapel of heir coats n
wear 1t as a Crusader wore a cross,
so they will know each other as pc
longing to the American Crusaders,
they can form q society as strong and
powerful as the American Legion.
and they a do ven greater work
because they can get next to the
bows. Even though the fathers Of
these young folks are wild-eyed Boil
sheyiks with bombs in every pocket,
they have one vulnerable spot, be-
cause they are human, and their love
for their children is their vulnerable
spot. Therefore, when you make an
American Of the boy you will convert
the father, eve If the whole force or
the American government a been
unable to do this.
