“What Fire Ladies Do

The fire bell which summoned
the local volunteer fire department to assist in a major Grass.

the department’s 87th annual
Fireman’s Ball shortly after 1
a.m. New Year’s morning is all

insuring hot bath water, laying
out clean clothes and a pot of
hot coffee.
Like a doctor’s wife, the fireman’s wife knows he is constantly “on call” and learns to take
his abrupt disappearance from a
social event in her stride.
The New Year’s Eve party at
Seaman’s Lodge, which was attended by nearly 200 firemen,
_their ladies and guests, was .un“@er: the ‘direction of’ Fire “Chief
. Sigourney with Ray Wilde as
general chairman. Dinner preceded an evening of dancing.
Following the alarm a few
couples remained at Seaman’s
Lodge to keep the coffee hot for
the fire fighters but due to the
length of the call the “‘canteen”
was moved to the city hall where
Mrs. Max Solaro and several other auxiliary members’. served
coffee to the returning crew in
the early morning hours.

Planted wisely, the money you
have this year of 1950 can be the seed
that grows into dreams come true, a
harvest of farm or ranch expansion,
education for the children or that
long vacation trip you’ve wanted. Invest every possible penny in U. S.
Savings Bonds, then every $3 you
plant today will yield $4 in 1960.

of a well-managed farm as is land,
