For large number of Damas-
cans Sunday was a day to sink
back into a comfortable chair
with the knowledge that a job
well done was behind them. The
annual fire department carnival
closed Saturday night after a
very successful week. The gross
take was $4,000. Net proceeds
will not be known for some time
until all bills are in and paid.
The weather was very kind ~
no rain at all except for a hard
shower early on the evening of
the Fourth but nothing kept the
crowd away from the fireworks
even though they had to stay till
1870 to see them.
