followed by "Patria," sung by the

a most engaging personality, sings
The Order of Friars Gray" a bass
solo which lends itself readily to the
depth and power of his voice.
THE Lady of the Lagoon" trans
lated from the Chinese, and sung by
the double quartet, is fanciful and
Oriental in it's harmonies.
Gypsy Melodies carry an appeal to
everyone, and the Air" played as a
violin solo by Clarence Nash is wierd-
ly beautiful. Mr.. Nash, who is a
master of the violin, brings out all
the charm and grace of the gypsy air

POLICEMAN
FIRE TRUCK DRIVERS
Special Committee of Council
ReCommendS-CO IfaX Council
man Explains County Seat
Fire System

Recommending that the city en-
ploy day and night police officers,
each officer to be competent truck
driver and capable of handling the
city fire truck in case of fire, the
special committee appointed by the
council to investigate the proposal
to employ a paid fire truck driver
Tuesday night reported it's findings
to the city fathers, Under the pro-
visions of the recommendations each
peace custodian would be in charge
Of the fire truck during his 12-hour
shift. Action by the city council
was deferred, and will probably be
taken at an adjourned session of the
city administration scheduled for
next Monday evening
The Investigation and report by the
special committee followed an OBJ
lection to the proposal to hire a
paid driver registered by Fire Chief
George Ewing, in behalf of the de-
partment, the chief arguing that
there are plenty of men in the de-
partment capable of handling the
new fire equipment and willing to
give their time free of charge. The
employment of a paid driver, he
said, might destroy the morale of
the volunteer fire fighters and thus
reduce the efficiency of the depart
ment.
Councilman T. A. Gallagher of
Colfax attended the meeting and eX-
planned in detail the system adopt
ed by the county seat city dads in
handling the fire fighting question,
with a paid driver in charge of the
big truck.
George NJ. Henry appeared as a
representative of the Pullman fire
department and stated the inten-
ton of using the $500 annual ap-
preparation by the city council for
the purchase of added equipment
rather than for distribution among
the fire fighters. The proposal of
the fire department to furnish men
to paint the fire hydrants bright
color, so that they might be easily
located, was accepted by the council
and the purchasing committee was
instructed to furnish the paint.
A communication was read from
the Washington Surveying and Rat
ing Bureau TO the effect that Pull
man could expect no substantial re-
duction in insurance premiums until
the new fire truck is approved by
the bureau and two paid firemen
employed to give their undivided at
tention 10 the equipment,
The council voted to purchase six
fire coats, six rubber helmets and
two masks for the use of the fire
department,
