The caption read, "Granpa said that you used to be able to see the ground.” "From what I understand," replied the other duck, "it isn't much to see no way."

Fire Chief Carl Bauch asks the cooperation of everyone in the district to prevent such false alarms. If you plan a sizeable burn please advise the sheriff's office. Then anyone reporting the fire, believing it to be uncontrolled, can be assured all is well, When reporting a fire, be specific in your directions, Last week someone reported one "a quarter mile south ofthe store." There are two stores in the district. This turned out to be a controlled burn. An abandoned fire, fanned by the wind, was stopped in its path through undergrowth in dense woods toward a cabin Saturday. The call to the PCP department came in at 3:30 p.m. Two trucks and eight men responded. The fire was located at the corner of Mosswood Lane and Colfax Highway on the Hyatt property. No loss reported. I have been asked to review the history of the local fire department. It was organized by Peardale people on July 27; 1954. The first chief was Ed Cochran with Don Phillips assistant chief; Clifford Goff treasurer and Mildred Brock secretary. Directors were Carl Brock, chairman; Thorp Sawyer, Harold Cron, Herb Stock and Walter Koerber. The following September Art Ring donated a truck that he had used in his excavation business in Walnut Creek. The department paid $75 for a 500 gallon tank and Frank Jacuzzi donated a pump. As a token of esteem for Cochran, a past fire chief of Richmond, that city gave hima siren, two spotlights, hose and . reel and other equipment. Ida Hatton donated land in 1954 and in 1955 the Peardale firehouse was built. Chicago Park joined the department and Jack Mills loaned land by the Chicago Park Store in 1960 to be used to build a second firehouse. On April 10, 1961 16 women of the Peardale and Chicago Park areas met at the home of Isobelle Huber for the purpose of organizing a ladies auxiliary. Eunice Carse was the first president; Sibyl Leuteneker, vice president; Barbara Durney, secretary; Joyce Felce, treasurer. The first regular meeting was held at the home of Barbara Durney on May 8, 1961. Here the name of "Fire Belles" was adopted. Since that time the department has gone on the tax rolls as the Peardale-Chicago Park Fire Protection District. Other progress has been reported in recent columns, Firemen will hold a benefit breakfast at the Peardale Firehouse this Sunday, March 19, 7 a.m. until 1 p.m. Proceeds will "go for a new air pack. . This Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, Chicago Park ‘School's basketball team, that of Colfax and five other teams from Nevada county schools are involved in a tournament in the Empire Gym. The championship game will be held Friday night at 7 p.m. Capt. Charles Sovey went to Ft. Rucker, Alabama last week to ferry a helicopter to Stockton, He returned to Chicago Park Monday. Daughter Christy was home from Chico State College for the weekend. Anne and her husband, Tyler Jones of Paradise, weekended here also. Just got half of Ernie and Grace Coleman's news in last week. While Grace's sister, Wanda Painter, held the fort here, the Colemans pulled their trailer down to Pleasant Hill where they "launched" their new grandson and visited friends. Later they went to Monterey to relax and play a little golf by the sea. They returned home last week. Wanda left for her Chevy Chase, Maryland home Wednesday.
