The local firemen have been
called on the job three times in the
last "a hours. The first call on
Friday afternoon was grass fire
near Pennington, along the rail-
road right-of-way on the Harry
Greenberg farm. It was quickly ex-
tinguished without damage. Rail
road trackmen assisted. On Satur-
day morning the firemen responded
to call from Pennington, where
only slight damage occurred at the
property occupied by Mrs. Helen
Mitchell. The third call, around
noon Saturday, apparently was a
false alarm. The firemen respond
ed to the farm of Daniel Link,
where directed, and were told there
was no fire. Mr.. Link said he had |
a fire a few days ago but extin-
guished it without calling out the |
firemen.
