citation from A. J. Krebs OF 25Ol

Dear Sir:
want 10 write 70 You to ex-
press my appreciation OF the
way in which your men worked
in and about my house last SAT-
urday in Atinguishing a fire in
a chimney.
While the fire itself was OF no
consequence, being merely SCOT
burning out inside OF the chim-
ney. yet there were great posi-
bilities for annoyance. Your
men could so easily have turned
an extinguisher up in the Chin
ney, or a hose down the chim-
ney, and made a horrible mess.
They, however. did nothing of
the sort They closed of the
fireplace with a blanket. and
extinguished the FIRE by pouring
coal down the chimney. When
Il was out your men proceeded
to put the house in order. and
had we permitted Il. would have
swept the floors, busted and re-
arranged the furniture.
certainly want to express
my appreciation OF the kind OF
men you have in your hre de-
partment. and the way in which
they worked; II could not be
better.
Yours, very truly,

HUNTERS VOTING
ABSENT BALLOTS
BEFORELEAVINC
Half of Demand for Blanks
From Men Who Will Be
i'm Hills Nov. z.

Indications that a., record vote by
absent voter ballots will be cast be-
fore the general election November
Z, are shown in the large number of
electors applying daily for ballots in
the office of County Clerk John d.
Moran. 1t required the attention OF
nearly all of the deputy clerks Friday
to handle the requests for absent bal
lots.
The period for casting absent voter
ballots closes Monday afternoon at 5
o'clock, when election supplies for all
voting precincts in the. city will be
ready for distribution early on the
morning of election day. Time for
voting by absent ballot in the rural
precincts had already expired. since
all outside points have the election
supplies.
The heavy demand for ballots is
~chargeable mainly to the fact that a
large number of voters expect to be in
the mountains hunting elk and deer
when election day rolls around. More
than so per cent of the applicants give
hunting trips as the reason for their
absence, according to officials in the
county clerks office.
