First Firsnen.

Fire-6ghting organizations of men
are known to have existed in the
Second century before Christ. Heron
Of Alexandria, 20O years before the
Christian era, in an old manuscript
which has escaped destructi0n, de,
scribed an hydraulic machine used
in Egypt during the time, OF the Ptole-
mics. 1t was composed Of two brass
cylinders resting on y wooden base
with pistons fitted into them-n its
principles practically like our present
engine.
The Romans had squads of men to
carry water In "hamae," or light vases,
to the scene Of an outbreak, where it
was projected on to the fire by those
in charge of the "siph0nes" or hand
pumps. The precise nature of this in-
strument has not been determined, but
from specimens found In excavations it
must have been much like, the old-fash.
Toned syringe used by gardeners. These
large organizations OF men gave the
Roman authorities trouble by their
turbulence.
Mention is made Of the medieval
use of forcing pumps as fire engines at
Augsburg in 1913.

Many London children, who know little
Of the beauties Of nature in the coun-
try, are familiar with the London
plane. 1t is such hardy tree that it
flourishes in many strange corners Of
the city. 1t IL strange to think
that dts Originis unknown. 1t is
pleasant to know that it came to Lon
don as an Outcast from the great
family Of trecs, aud, in return for the
sanctuary afforded, has given the
great city of its best.
