Deputy Chief Barnes Completing A Years as Fireman, Declares
 He Would Do It All Over Again
Believes Saving Property and Human Beings Is Finest Work Man Could DO-"YOu Cannot Love a Motor Truck" His Comment On Horses.

Forty-four years fireman, and not one regret!
 Eugene r. Barnes, officially known as first assistant engineer 3f the New Britain fire department, but known among all tiremen in the city and most Of the taxpayers. voters, children and visitors as just plain Chief Barnes" without dis tracing from Chief William J. Nobles title, will be q fireman for 44 years on Sunday, and he has never had a moment of dissatisfac- ton nor regret in all that time.
 If l had my life to live over again, l would pick the same job. ? he said today.
 Grew With the City
 If an intimate life history of As sstant Chief Barnes fer the past A years could be written it would fiu a large volume and it would also parallel the story of the growth Of New Britain. not ony in fire fight ing work but in manufacturing. civic leadership, educational grcu>h and public safety.
 Deputy Chief Barnes was born ih New Britain. He was not IS when he joined the department on Octo- Der 26, 1886, and added that he is the only fireman on the records Of the city who became q fireman at such an early age,
 How He Started
 The story of how Chief Barnes became a fireman is colorful, A youngster, working in a local fac tory, and full of lively imagination and vigor, he was easily persuaded by chum to join the state guard. This occurred in July. 1886, and he had such a fine time as a gun tOter l.. the guard that he wanted to go to war, but there was no war on tap just then, so when the same chum, who was a callman in the original headquarters company, Engine Co. No. l, asked him to join tte fire department, young Barnes jumped at the chance.
 The old headquarters was then To- cated where the Andrews &5 Swift office now stands, on Commercial street, across the street from the

ized a business as bookkeeping, run ming a lathe or keeping cows. The men have to know their work or they cannot work well.
 Would Do It Again
 q like this work, and if 1 had my life to live over again, l would most certainly be a fireman, wheth- CT I advanced or not, tor 1 think it i, the finest kind of work there is today. To rush out to save property and lives, is, to my idea, the finest work any man can do. A man gets out of his job just what he puts into it. It any man becomes a fire man and loves his work and is un- selfish and tries to become a better fireman each day, he will advance ir the work
 Speaking of his superior officers. Barnes said, T never know a finer set of men than our present chief and our eX-chief. Chief Dame was fearless. courageous and a gentle man of the old school. Nobody could
 
 Noble is all that his name implies. l don't know a man anywhere who could command the respect and ad :. miration of every man in the entire fire department of New Britain as does Chief Noble. He is rare mah for the job. The fire commissioners have always seemed to me to be ex- ceptionally fine men. They seem to understand our problems and that is g. wonderful thing for any depart ment. If the commissioners are dumb everything seems bad, but we have never had any dumb com missiouers, thank Heaven"
 Deputy Chief Barnes then added one more expression, which must be

Another bunkerman was wanted, and the company voted upon young Barnes name, o. K l him, and the fire board. at it's sub- scquent meeting, voted him irto the headquarters company.
 Received $l Per Year at First
 For the first year. Barnes was to receive $1 for each fire that he at tended m the absence of a regular callmGn. Barnes being a sort of as sIstant callman without salary. During the year there was only one fire when Barnes was on duty be- cause of the absence of a regular call man. and therefore, his first
