Firemen To Solicit Funds
For long time the Grantsville Vol
unteer Fire Department has been con-
sidering the need of additional equip
ment and means for financing the pur-
chase. 1t has finally been decided that
providing necessary funds can be Sc
cured by donations from citizens re-
siding in the territory which would re-
ceive the services of the Grantsville
fremen in case of need, the following
will be purchased:
One truck and body and equipment
costing approximately $3,248; l light
plant and flood lights, $155; five hun
bred feet of inch and half hose, 1865;
l gated siamese, $27; nozzle, $45, and
miscellaneous, $500, making total Of
$3,94O.
The new truck would not supplant
the one in use now, but would be used
with the present one and would be
equipped to carry greater amount
of water for use in rural sections
Plans are to buy truck which would
accommodate six firemen in an en-
closed cab.
The departments one aim in pur.
chasing this additional equipment is
to give more efficient fire fighting ser,
vice to the entire community. The
services of the entire company anC
equipment are free to all. And t.
make it possible for the department
to realize this purchase depends en-
tirely upon the donations of the pub
lie at large.
