Firemen's Ball Is Great
Financial Success
Boys Secure Over $500
Toward the New Fire
Truck. Deserve Help

The Firemen's Ball, given at the
La Veta Hotel last night was sue
cess, financially, socially and in every
way. The boys on the fire fighting
force netted s205 from last nights
receipts which will go into the fund
that has already been started to OBJ
tain better fighting equipment. The
idea is to raise sufficient money TO
purchase a better truck and other
equipment that would reduce the fire
hazard in Gunnison as well as to in
sure the safety Of the citizens and
property. The sum of s435 was al
ready in this fund and with the pro-
ceeds of last nights ball, the boys
are in a fair way toward accomplish
ing their desired results. The present
fire fighting force, under the auspices
of Chief w. 7. Hartman are taking the
greatest of interest in their work and
the duties connected with the fire or
ganization- The insurance rates were
reduced few months ago in Gunni-
son as the result of better fire protec-
ton and now it is hoped that still
further reduction will result il the
present program is carried, which
would neccssitate some one employed
on the force exclusively.
