CITY RECORDS SHOW
LOW NUMBER OF FIRES
Fire Chief Jack Lewis Answers 80
Calls During Year. Losses Es.
timated at $4,000.

Answering 33 fire calls during
1920, wherein the total damage was
estimated at $4,000, is the record
made by Chief Jack Lewis, Of Clovis.
The largest loss Of the year resulted
when the Mordecai work shop at the
new Eugene Field school building was
burned last June. 1t is estimated
that $4,000 worth of machinery and
woodwork for the new building were
destroyed.
However, most of the other fires
resulted in small losses, and many Of
them in practically no damage. Twen-
ty-four Of the fires resulted in losses
of less than 500.
Most of the bazes were brought
under control in a hurry--fires that
would otherwise have been disastrous.
A good example Of the work of the
department was the blaze at Whites
Cafe on South Main Street early in
August. The building stood between
two other frame buildings and the
fire was extinguished before either
Of them had been damaged.
The City of Clovis receives $500
each year from the Fire Insurance
Commission of the state, and this
fund is used for additional equipment.
However, many smaller towns are re-
ceiving much larger allotments from
the state and an effort will be made
during the coming session of the leg
islature to have the allotment raised
to ) 900 annually.
