PRAISE FOR
RUE LADDIES'
-Citizen Writes of Marshfield
Fire Department and Duty
of the City.
Editor Times:
Tho presentation of $250.00 to the
fire department by Mr. John Mer
chant in recognition of, and, in a
measure, as a 'reward for the efficient
efforts of tho fire laddies who re
sponded to the alarm sounded by the
siren Monday morning, which called
them to the Merchant residence In
South Marshfield, should not pass
with only the brief mention contained
in your columns of yesterday.
Marshfield has more and better
equipment for fire-fighting purposes
than any other city of three times
its population in the state, and no
city has a department which is at
once so loyal and capable.
I am using these facts as a text
for a brief statement as to tho duty
of the Common Council in its care of
tho department and of the obligation
resting upon the business Interests of
Marshfield in their encouragement of
the boys who stand ever ready to risk
their lives in the protection of prop
their lives in the effort to protect
property.
Marshfield not only has, but in the
main is, a conflagration district, and
tho time may easily come at any
moment when in order to prevent
tho destruction of tho life's earnings
and savings of men now deemed to
bo secure in a competency, a trained
and efficient fire fighting force will
be necessary.
Have the business interests of the
city fully appreciated this fact?
Or have they left the matter whol
ly to tho council, trusting that It
would provide an efficient depart
ment, at tho same time reserving to
themselves the Inalienable American
Tight to complain of expenditures?
The council can do much and I
take It, is earnestly endeavoring to
do everything possible to serve tho
city, but the fact remains that our de
partment Is a volunteer department,
and the boys upon whom wo depend
lor the protection of our property
should by all means be encouraged in
their self Imposed tasks.
All honor to Johnny Merchant for
his substantial and sentimental ap
preciation of tho work of our fire
boys. A CITIZEN.
