These considerations and many
others were in the minds of Oak
landers when on May 7th, 1894,
they gathered together at Sturgiss
Hall to organize a fire company.
With Dr.. Henry w. McComas and
Albert C. Ross serving as tempo
rary chairman and secretary, the
following were present and eX-
pressed willingness to join the
projected organization: f. II. Bart
lett Jr.; Edw Hall, Jos. Martin, r.

ThOs Martin Jr., Benz. II. Sincell,
VIM. A. Sturgiss, Wade II. Hine-
baugh, Teen Clagett, David Martin,
Dick Bartlett, and Albert G.. Ross
JOS. Martin was appointed to
canvass the town and recruit adj
ditional members. Scott T. Jones
addressed the meeting, giving
much practical and valuable adj
vice.
At meeting IN the hall of Ham,
i'll and Little on May oath a per-
manent organization was effected,
and officers for the year elected
as follows: President R. c. Town
shend, Vice President Teen Cla-
gett, Foreman D. E. Bolden, Vice
Foreman Joseph Martin, Secre-
tary A. c.. Ross, Treas. Thos. Lit
tie, Trustees DR.. H. w. McComas,
E. H. Bartlett Jr,, and Charles !
Bosley.
A committee was named to draft |
bylaws; Thos. Little, D. E. Bolden, |
and A. G. Ross. Twenty two men,
bers were enrolled, which was
considered very good beginning.
On May 31th a third meeting
was held at City Hall. The city
fathers were requested to pur-
chase for the fire company need

this third meeting a decision was
taken to test the fire engine" on |
the Monday following. No details
appear about the engine. The gaso-
line engine had not then came into
wide use anywhere. Early fire
engines were pumps mounted on
wheeled vehicles propelled to
fires by the firemen themselves.
The men also powered the pumps
by means of handles attached to
a horizontal axis to which was
fixed the pumps drive shaft in

Soviets for a long time now and
we might as well accept the fact
that we are going to have them
for long time to come-while
the Kremlin continually probes
for a solf spot in our alliances.
Remember last Fall wnen war
or peace seemed to hinge on
Quemoy and Matsu? Or last sum-
mer when our Marines landed in
Lebanon? Remember Hungary?
And SueZ? And Indo-China? And
the Berlin airlift? Each of these
held the seed of World War III,
just as surely as does the Berlin
impasse of 1859 This is not to
minimize the gravity of the Berlin
problem, but to say that steady
nerves is what the Western world
needs. not a panic response to
each and every gamble launched
by the Kremlin.
There have been demands from
some quarters that we mobilize adj
ditional troops and enlarge our
European ground defenses to
meet the present challenge. Presi-
dent Eisenhower wisely says Mo-
in the first place, we could not
match, man for man, the ground
forces of Russia 1t would be futile
and disastrous to attempt it. If
we were to mobilize partially or
fully at every onset of recurring
crises, the United States would
soon be drained of economic vitali-
ty, our ace-in-the-hole. President
Eisenhower says that any war in
which we might become involved
in Europe would be a nuclear war.
If we are to prevail, it could not
be otherwise.
As for nuclear power, we have
the assured capability of destroy
ing Russia if we strike fast enough.
With that assurance, comparative
stock-pile figures are academic.
We hate war. We want peace. But
to have peace in today's world, it
seems we must be prepared to win
a war.

All Sweet Historyl-Too much
revenue no place TO spend it, That
was the unique problem which
faced Chester A. Arthur and
Grover Cleveland. Every President
frCm Washington to Eisenhower
has fretted over balancing the
budget Arthur and Cleveland
found theirs out of killer because
tax money poured in too fast.
Arthur Glumly looked at all that
money. and complained: "Swol-
len revenues lead to spending"
The overabundance of money
coming from customs duties there
was no income tax in those days.
was the reason Cleveland wanted
to lower tariffs.
The contrasting picture today
is of a President trying to build
a balanced budget structure by
eliminating eXtravagant spending
and, on the other hand. certain of
our citizens apparently impatient
for the opportunity to huff and
puff and blow the house down.

This statement conflicted
with a recent estimate by the

within the past month we
have come across large black
ants, about a half inch in
length. In different rooms of
the house. Are these ants
harmful" Mrs. S. G. asks.
Answer II suppose these
Insects are named carpenter
ants" because they build
nests out of lumber - the
lumber from your house.
They are very destructive
and you should lose no time
In having them extermi-
mated. The job is first to
locate the nest which is
somewhere within the franz
ing of the house and then
spray it with kerosene or car
bon-tetrachloride.
You may have to partially
dismantle the house to do the
Job. Professional extermi-
majors have an easier
method. After locating the
general area in which the
nest is located. they just
pump poison gas in between
the walls.
BIeoehed Blends
II have a blond dining
room suite and it is turning
dark. What causes this and is
there anything that I can do
about it?" Mrs. j. B. r. asks.
Answer - Blond furniture
becomes blond in the same
manner that most females

features Of the furniture are
no less imperishable than
those of the ladies. The wood
has a tendency to return to
its natural color. This may
take many years but it always
darkens. Bleaching and re-
finishing is the only cure.
