Through the concerted action of the chamber
of commerce and a large group of local people
the lot adjoining Williamson’s bakery has been
purchased at a cost of $1000. It has been deeded
free of encumbrance, to the Brookings-Harbor
h ire Protection District, and now stands record­
ed in their name.
It is the intention of all persons interested in
this project to erect immediately a building to
house the fire truck and the ambulance. It is un­
necessary to point out the way in which both of
those pieces of equipment are deteriorating due
to being out in the weather.
It is also unnecessary after the tragic and all
too frequent need of the ambulance these last
weeks to ponit out how vitafl it is that both these
pieces of equipment be properly housed and
maintained.
We believe that just as the lot has already
been paid for, the building can be erected in
large measure, by donations of material and
labor.
The lot is already being graded, as you may
notice when you go to the Post office. The con­
crete slab will be poured within a matter of days.
The committees responsible for obtaining the
material are already at work and we are assur­
ed it will be laid down by the time it is needed.
We expect to start work on the building some­
time during the week of May 10th, if weather
permits, on that date, and will finish the ex­
terior of the building within a week.
We believe everyone will be in complete accord
with this and show it by their full co-operation.
The purpose of this notice is to ask that EACH
and EVERY ONE OF US come in and signify
just how much time during that week we will
give. If everyone gives at least one full day of
work, or if unable physically or for any other
reason, the money to purchase one days labor
nothing can stop us.
You may let us know what you will do either
at the office of Mrs. Byrne, secretary of the
chamber of commerce in the Central building.,
or by seeing C. A. McKenzie at the Self Service
Laundry.
