FIRE, FIRE!

Who knows when the alarm will
be sounded, calling the volunteer
fire fighters of Oxford to combat a
destructive blaze. We are not sup
posed to know those things-we are
supposed to be ready to fight the
flames when the alarm is sounded.
In what kind of condition is our
fire apparatus? Is everything
ready: hose in good condition, con-
nections, wrenches and reels ready
to respond at moments waning !!
If not there is neglect OF duty
which may cost some Of our peop-e
hundreds of dollars.
Read this:
"The Strand theater and building
was completely destroyed Saturday
evening by the most destructive fire
Tupelo has had in number OF years.
"The fire alarm was sounded at
6:45 and within a few minutes prac-
tically every person downtown was
out. A little later the whole town
turned out to witness tie spectacular
occurrence and the nearby streets
and courthouse lawn were filled with
men. women and children who re-
NAMED throughout the two hours
required by the fire to consume the
building.
at was fully ten minutes from
the time the first fire alarm was
sounded before the fire truck appear
ed-on the scene. Workmen at the
water and light plant saw smoke
coming from the top of the theater
building and flew the fire whistle
Immediately, but no alarm was ever
turned into the fire department, ana
it is reported the motor on the truck
was staretd as soon as the whistle
first sounded, and word was belng
awaited as to where the fire was.
"Ten minutes must have elapsed
before the fire truck finally LETT its
shed. and even then Mr.. Siddall, IN
charge of the truck, had received no
word as to where the fire was:
"This delay and the time lost IN
getting the hose out of the truck and
connected to the fire-plug. gave the
fire such big start that the flames
could not be checked with the equip
ment on hand.
aThe loss of the building is estima-
te dat between $4,000 and S40,00O,
with but $4,000 insurance.
"The $4,000 organ carried S2,50O
insurance, we understand. and Mr..
Hatcher reports his loss outside OF
this at approximately $4,000; Over
$500 worth of new fans had been IN
stale da few weeks before, and it IS
understood about fourteen reels OF
film were burnt up.
at is believed that defective wiz
ing originated the fire" -,
This is merely a reminder. that
am life we are in the midst OF
death = The city fathers, whose
dutv it is to see that the fire fight,
ING apparatus is Kent in trim and
ready for service at any moment,
should take warning and do their
duty, ERE it is too late.
