Saves Baby's Life

Two Rockville parents, Mr.. and

in saving their daughters life,
wrote a letter of commentator
of the Fire Department to the
Mayor and Council last week.
When sixteen-month old Donna
Poff had recent attack of high
fever accompanied by convul-
sions, the volunteers responded so
quickly with the inhalator and
necessary oxygen that Donna's
doctor gave them full credit for
saving her life.
The fire department, while it
appreciates the Poff's words of
praise, considers the action as "all
in the days work" and just part
of the normal routine.
