Fire Department
 Expresses Thdnks

The Seward Volunteer Fire Department expresses official thanks and appreciation for the quick response of the many vol unteers. residents, Army and Navy personnel at the fire Sat urday night.
 Mir. Murl Trevethan states that what stopped the fire was the many people who battled it with shovels, clubs and water cans carried on backs. If the fire had worked around a few yards farther to the south" he said, it would have been much more serious and harder to control.'
 Appreciation is also paid to Lytle & Green, Carl Ling, Stew art and Muir, and the City Street Department for the tractors. They were not used, but at first it appeared that they would be necessary, and all four were hastened to the scene to stand by.
 Several Water-can fire eX- tinguishers are missing and were probably taken home for safe keeping. They may be left at the Fire Hall or at the Dock Fire Hall, or call to MT. Kiel- cheski, MT. Trevethan or any member of the Fire Department will get them picked up at your home.
