that there are several wells in the
city that were used before the Cave
City Water company installed the
water system. These wells could
be made available for a water sup
ply if they were repaired and kept
up. This is one phase of work
that is expected to be looked into
in the near future. Business men
should also have barrels of water
near their business, because often
a few water buckets can stop a
fire before it gets a good start.
And in all, the meeting was one
of the most constructive we have
ever held, and out of it will come
a better fire department and a bet
ter understanding of what must be
done to protect the city property.
When the Firemens Ball is an
nounced. every resident in the city
and others nearby should see that
they purchase a ticket to the ball.
Watch for this announcement lat
