THE ftre DEPARTMENT The first line cf defense against fire in any community is the fire de partment. Its efficiency may deter mine whether a blaze shall be quick ly subdued, with a minimum loss, or Whether it shall become a roaring, destructive conflagration. Our modern fire departments pre nut an interesting contrast to those of ancient times. It was not untiT after the great London fire of 1666 that fire fighting was given serious study and organized fire departments created. In this country the first public fire fighting organizations of importance were the volunteer "fire societies" which combined preparedness for fire with social diversions. The first suc cessful steam pumping engine was adopted and used by Cincinnati, Ohio, Id 1853. Nowadays the up-to-date fire de partment is equipped with deluge sets, turret pipes and water towersi capable of projecting streams of wa ter as high as eight stories above the ground. Vast projrress has been made in the perfection of our fire fighting facilities, and they are still in a process of evolution. Every American community, large or small, has found that a high-class fire fight intx organization, well equipped, is one of the best possible investments. FOE SALE Apples.
