The telephone company has donated this service, to save time and confusion when- a fire alarm is turned in. As most fire calls come through central, the idea is that the first man reaching the station, call cen tral and get the exact information as to where the fire is. By that time the fire apparatus is ready to go without delay, giving the department a better opportunity to reach the fire and give aid while it is yet under control. Simple Instructions Given The manager of the . telephone company asks that these simple instructions be followed: When reporting a fire to central control your voice, speak distinctly and slowly. By doing so you add to the efficiency of the department. In less, than three months the indebtedness has been cleared on Aurora's new fire truck." The chassis of the truck cost 1759. The donation from the city was Si 60, tho price received from the old fire truck; The body . was built by members of the fire de- j chased by the city. The new truck was bought February 23. Three dances and the generosity of the people has wiped out all indebtedness. The firemen give their services free. The last dance was given at the Barlow Grange Hall Saturday night, the" receipts being $105.25. ' V Jf Iff I - ?
