Chief N. L. Perry, who Is a

Perry arranged for a fire
last night, just to keep the de-

alarm was in January, and the
chief figured that if his force
didn't get an occasional work
out, they'd go stale. So he ar
ranged for smoke bombs to be
set off in the high school, q
dummy to be laid out, all ready
for reScuing, and hose line pre-
pared.
But when he started to round
up his six regular and 80 vol
unteer firemen, he found most
of them had gone out Of town
for the holiday. He said:
"It'S all off. I've got some
firemen but most of my key
men won't show up"
So the chief followed their
example by taking his family
