    Property Owners Must
Help the Firemen
The firemen's rally last Friday
evening was well attended. W. F,
King was chosen chairman. He ex
plained the need of a better fire or
ganization.
Councilman " Elkins explained t
Bort of tentative plan he had in
mind. Beds located near the fire
apparatus would be furnished
twelve men who would form the
nucleus of two companies. The
rooms and bed, together with jani
tor service, to be provided by the
city.
The chairman thought that if
two men from each company would
volunteer to take the initiative and
go ahead and see the old members
that interest enough would be
taken to re-establish the old fire
companies. A rising vote was taken
to see how many of those present
were willing to join and the result
was so encouraging that volunteers
from the old companies were called
for. Lester Cohrs and George
Reams offered from No. 1, Mayor
Clifton and Theodore Mingers
from No. 2 and Gardiner Perry and
Jack Summers for the Board of
Fire Delegates.
Another matter that did not sit
very well withjthe firemen was the
absence of property owners. VVhy
a matter of such concern to people
witn homes snould be passed up
was beyond comprehension. One
thing is certain, unless property
owners take more interest in the
department the city will have to
levy a tax for fire protection.

Opening of Baseball
Season at Lyric
The Lyric will exhibit a picture
Friday evening of unusual interest
to all followers of the national game
entitled, "Breaking into the Big
League," for in it are many close
up views of the celebrietiea in base
ball fame known as the New York
Giants and the popular Christie
Mathewson and other players are
shown in action at Marlin, Texas.
Of course, there is a plot and love
story in connection with it which
will make the story equally inter
esting for those not particularly in
terested in baseball. This picture

an hour.

County Superintendent
Buys His Own Car
To disarm all criticism concern
ing the automobile bought for the
use of School Superintendent Myers,
that gentleman has had the warrant
issued March 10 canceled and the
contract abrogated for the payment
of the car in three yearly install
ments. Mr. Myers has assumed
the full responsibility for the pay
ment of the car himself. The car
will be used for the benefit of the
county, nevertheless, in enabling
the superintendent to keep in close
touch with all the county schools
and giving them the benefit of his
long experience in school affairs.
This was not possible without the
aid of more rapid means of travel
ing than the horse and buggy.
