Holme There will be services held In the Lutheran church, La Gande, Sun day, March 2nd, both morning and evening. H. E. Rbskamp, contractor f this city, left today on a' business trip to Pendleton, expecting to be away a couple of days. I have to submit f-oin the reports of the sovoial departments, week ending February 22, 1D19: One fire call, llox 55, from 701 Jefferson avenue, property owned by John Synhorst and occupied by Frank Mitchell. No material dam age was done other than getting out the firo -apparatus and the volun teer force. , The cause of the fire .was placing the stove pipe too near the chimney base. In the- connec tion it might be well to- call atten tion of property owners and renters to the fact that there are strict rules regarding the construction of chimneys mud use of stove pipes and penalties for disregarding sumo. We believe it is much belter to prevent fires if possible than to fight them, and the chief of the fire dopartmenl has been instructed to take every precaution.' possible to that end. Ho ls empowered to inspect buildings, particularly with reference to the .wiring and chimneys and 1 hope that ho will have the co-operalimi of res idents itn this work. Fr rents are al- covering. so cautioned to warn their children against tampering with tile fire boxes as there is a heavy penalty for this and violators will be vigor ously prosecuted. The chemical lrose and the stove for heating the car buretter have arrived and been in stalled ,i;n d ' the fire force feel that they are now well equipped to handle any emergency but they prefer that there be ico emergency.
