'Adrent of Golf
Got UnfGvOrGbLe
County Greeting

Today Montgomery County is
a haven for weary businessmen
and Presidents-with golf
courses dotted throughout the
area. They include:
Bethesda, White Flint, Manor,
Columbia, Congressional, Burn
ing Tree, Chevy Chase, Argyle,
Woodmont, and many others.
Golf made its appearance in
this area near the end of the
last century. One writer of the
day lamented:
Golf has come. OF course it
had to come, sooner or later;
everything does. And now the
little red flags that mark the
courses are beginning to be of
frequent occurrence in the land
scape and the youthful mind is
intent on getting lot of little
balls into a lot of little holes
with a little stick entirely made
quate to the purpose"
And buffers have been say
ing the same thing ever since.

equipment and the first big job
was to raise funds for the pur-
chase of an adequate alarm sys-
tenn. Mr.. VIM. Prettyman was
the committee chairman of the
house to house canvassing cam
paign that financed purchase
and installation of the siren in
tie old court house.
BY January, 1922, the Depart
ment, through dinners, dona-
tons and a contribution from
the County, had obtained the
$500 requisite for the purchase
of a Model-T "Waterous Ford"
triple combination pumper. This
was kept on the ground floor
of the Old Court House.
Riders Limited
Only six people were allowed
to ride on the Model-T in times
of emergency and to prevent
argument, a ring" system was
installed. The first driver to
arrive after the siren sounded
grabbed the red ring. The Sec
ond man reached for the blue
ring and hence had the next
coveted seat, in the front beside
the driver. Four white rings
were taken by the next four ar
rivals, who rode in the truck.
All the rest had to follow tamely
in cars. Competition never
tagged.
Early in the twenties, a seri-
Gus fire broke out in the
Poolesville business section that
burned out most of a block and
threatened the whole town. The
work the department did then
in saving the town is still re-
membered with appreciation.
New Equipment Acquired
The next big piece of equip
ment was a ''Waterous-Re and
then the volunteers pitched in
and built a Dodge Hook and
Ladder Wagon and, beautiful
though it was to them, If re.
ports are correct, 1t was very
much homemade" The trucks

It became increasingly obvi.
GUS that central housing was
vital to efficient functioning and
eventually a building commit
tee was appointed with F. Bar
nard Welsh as chairman.
With the cooperation Of the
late Mr.. Joseph H. Bradley and
Mr.. Frank H. Karin, the present
fire department building grew
into reality in 1926.
Rescue Squad Started
In 1881, the Rescue Squad
was founded by Mr.. Val Wilson
and a rescue wagon was pur-
chased.
The present day equipment of
the Department includes five
bumpers, a Rescue Squad
Truck, two Ambulances, and a
14-foot Boat and Trailer. De-
livery was received in January
of this year on a new Mack
Triple Combination Pumper
built to the specifications of the
Department at cost of $4,000.
During the year a full train

ings include the cafeteria, an

cooling tower.
The headquarters was de-
signed by the New York archi-
tectural firm of voorhees,, Walk
er, Smith and Smith. Contract
for construction of all except
one wing was let on May IL,
1856, to John McShain, Inc, of
Philadelphia. John A. Volpe
Construction Co. of Maiden,
Mass, did the work on the final
wing.
In addition to its German

vides facilities such as confer
ence rooms, public document

Congressman have always

A Michigan Colonel was in

were denied admittance to the
post. Several came up and
asked the corporal to pass them,
saying they were Congressman.
The corporal stated the case to
the colonel,
"They are Congressman, are
they?" asked the colonel.

well, let them pass and go

When Ida Sullivan, the first

the summer of 1892, the female

about a declining marriage rate.
She deplored, ''The young

Rockville Firenlen
Big Boon to City

One of the most valuable
services ever rendered to Rock
vile and surrounding areas has
come from the Rockville Vol
unteer Fire Department.
In 1921, there was a bad fire
in the home and store OIL John
Collins, now Elizabeth's Kitch-
en-, which the District Dept. ex-
tinguished with the aid of town
volunteers. Following that in
cident, Mr.. Bill Burrows went
before the Town Council to pre-
sent a recommendation that a
volunteer fire department be
formed, at which time he of
fered to have the meeting in his
barber shop.
First Meeting Held
So many people were inter-
ested that on March 9, 1921,
there assembled, instead, in the
office of the Potomac Electric
Power Company, a group of APP
proximately so men to partici-
pate in the endeavor.
Equipment Furnished
The meeting was called to
order by Mr.. c. H. Robertson,
a town councilman. Temporary
officers elected were DR.. o. M.
Linthicum, father of DR.. VIM.
Linthicum, President; Mr.. Rob-
ertson, Vice President; Mr..
Bache Albert, Secretary-Treas-
urer; Mr.. w. F. Disney, Engi-
neer, and Mr.. Joseph Howes,
Chief.
