Thla Is considered preferable to the construc tion of a small building and Installa tion of a volunteer fire company In Rose City Park. Large water mains are to be laid In Rose City Park and fire hydrants will be placed, a ls-lnch main running; from Mount Tabor. This will provide the district with fire pro tection next year.
