Statistics from the Department show that 89 calls were made from
June 80, 1926, to May 15,1931. The estimated loss from fires for this five-
year period was $11,000.00, and the amount of the insurance was $8,125.00.
The biggest loss at one time during this five-yeat term was the High School;
which loss amounted to $3,500.00.
The expense of the Fire Department to the city is approximately $1,-
000.00 per year. The Fire Chiefs salary is ten dollars a month. It takes
from one to two minutes to answer an alarm and regarding additional fire
equipment, we are advised that the organization of a rural fire department,
along with the main department, would greatly assist in rural fire protection.
The Department patrols the down town district once a month. The hy­
drants are thoroughly inspected and the equipment is taken out every week
for practice. There is an average of twelve men turning out for every fire
We, the merchants of this page, appreciate the services of these men
who are volunteers, and agree that we have one of the best volunteer fire de­
partments in the State of Oregon. They are protecting ouf property so that
we may continue in our places of business in order td give Coquille and the
surrounding country values that they cannot get elsewhere.
