TWO-NINE CALLING

The Juneau Volunteer firemen! ... Did you ever consider their worth? On call day and night through the year, No braver group on earth. They deliver the lost from the mountain And give the drowning man breath; They search for the child who has wandered, And rescue from burning death In jackets with icicled fringes They labor right through the Taku; In raging Southeasters or drought, They're a ready emergency crew. They stamp out the hillside fires And clean up the wrecks at the turn; They raise sinking boats from the harbor, With no thought for the homage they earn: Three cheers for our volunteer firemen! They're speedy efficient, superb. No unit that's organized better Than Juneaus, swing from the curb. They answer the calls of the city Without any self-seeking ends; And now that "TWO-NINE' is calling, Let's show how we prize our friendsl
