gone to the humble and unlearned

religious. They have instituted
hospitals, homes for the aged, and

History of Local Company

In January of 1887, under
authority of an, act of the Della
ware state Legislature, a volunteer
fire company was Incorporated in
the town of Smyrna. The twenty
six charter members chose Samuel
Taylor as their president and B. Y.
Weldon as their first chief, and
took over completely the fire-fight-
ing functions of the town, all of
which previously had been under
the jurisdiction of the Town Coun-
Gil. Shortly after Incorporation
the members chose the present
name. "The Citizens Hose Com
pany No. l." 1t is interesting to
note that this early organization
was operated on weekly dues of 2
cents per person. In January OF
1897 the company was reorganized
but it was not until 1904 that the
old hook and ladder truck was
changed from hand power to horse
power. Nineteen years later upon
discovering that their charter nad
run out, members reincorporated
under the new law and purchased
the best available motorized equip
ment an Observation-Disclosures SIX
cylinder pumper and hose motor
car. which was supplemented six
wears later with a custom-buiir
Dodge chemical truck to hanole
fires in the country. In 1928, cul-
minating 1S years of planning the
company purchased the McDoWeil
property on West Commerce street
as the most desirable location Tor
permanent home for the firemen
and their equipment and spent the
next two years in constructing one
of the finest buildings of its type
in the East. In 1925 they held
their first meeting in their new
home and in the same year enter
tanned their friends throughout the
state when the State Volunteer
Firemen's Association held theil
animal convention in Smyrna.

A year ago there was con- siderable dissatisfaction over our school children congregat- ing around the juke box in an ice cream parlor. Mothers Wor- ried about the kind of young men their girls would meet. So far as 1 know there was nothing harmful in the gatherings, cx- cept that they were deSultery and pointless. It was just a place to go, something to do, after the movies.
 A small group thought that a dramatic club might interest some of the girls and boys. They went so far as to invite several young people in to talk it over. The idea was accepted eagerly by the youngsters, but died aborning Why? You know why.
 When the leaders explained that they had thought it good lItSi OSNSltoS It WolilA SiNN eiiN children something to do, they were stopped cold with indig- nant eXclamationS to the effect that the kids had too much to do alreadyI'
 Just what do they have to do?
 Movies? Yes. Basketball? Yes, during a short season. An occa- sional dance for selected group? Yes, few and far be- tween Bowling? Yes, if they can find the money for an ex pensive recreation. Ice skating? Some years, if the season is right. Roller skating? Oh, yes, three nights week, but who wouldn't get tired of the same thing all the time? Skiing? Yes, if you know how, own skis, and have transportation for the 12 mile trip. School work? No doubt they should be doing home work every night.-Did you?
