DAMAGED
From Crawford Tribune:
This Friday evening at about
5 o'clock the fire WhiSt! i rallt'd the
flre department and citizens to (isht
s IfS which had Rained ci nnidorable
headway In the lsrge warehouse In
the Northwestern railway yards,
formerly occupied by ihe KriiK Hrew
Inc: company, but lately used by War
field, Pratt, Howe & company, n
Wholesale grocery firm, for a storage
house. The tire boys responded
promptly nnd soon had the Ham s
Under control, and a car load of
yrup, which was in the building re
toovod to a Bafe place. Olson &
Kelly had a large quantity of pota
toes stored In the building, but by
the assistance of some diligent work
ers succeeded In saving all but a few
bushels. The dumage resulting Is
principally to the budding, which is
considerable, and, we understand, is
covered by insurance. The fire Is
supposed to have originated from an
oil stove which WHO used in the
building to keep the potatoes from
freezing.
TWO ALARMS AT MINI I Hill till
From Scottsbluff Star-Herald :
Fire alarms both Sunday and Mon
day mornings gave some littlo ex
citement to the citizens of this city
and caused the tire truck to bo oxer
clued, the blaze in each instance,
bowever, being incipient in char
acter and extinguished before any j
damage was done. About 6 o'clock j
Sunday morning the alarm was
turned in from Fourteenth and First
avenue, the flre being In the black
smith shop adjoining the Carr &
Neff lumber yard on the west oper
ated by Mr. Shelley, the building
owned by Dr. A. Crawford. In
some manner the flooring in the
shop had become ignited and was
blazing merrily when discovered.
The department was notified and
Kred Nlssen, who was on duty at the
time responded with the truck so
promptly that the flre lighting ap
paratus was on the scene before the
whistle had ceased blowing. None
of the equipment was used, as there
was water close at hand and the
blaze was extinguished easily. Duo
to the proximity of the large lumber
yard, there might have been serious
consequences had not the flre been
given such prompt attention.
Monday mornlng'o alarm was
turned from the Itoland Cigar store,
where a gasoline coffee urn had
leaked and the oil had become Ig
nited. None of the equipment was
used and the tire was extinguished
before any damage was done. One
thing Is certain and that is that
Scottsbluff now has an efficient de
partment and one that is "on the
Job."
ODD FIR KM ION SACRIFICING
From Ord Weekly Journal:
For some years It has been the
custom of the firemen to attend the
state convention in a body, taking
their own band along and always the
Ord bunch has been a prominent part
of the convention. Ord has been on
the map all the time. The expenses
of these yearly tripn have been do
frayed by the money taken in at the
time of the annual ball and some
times an entertainment has been
given also, to help out. The firemen
have had a mighty good time on
these trips and have looked forward
to the 1917-18 meeting at Fremont
with rather more Interest than usual
for they knew that Fremont would
show the boys the time of their lives.
These tripn have been about the only
pay the boys have received for their
work as firemen and the people gen
rally have conceded that they were
entitled to them yearly and have
usually been liberal in patronizing
the ball and entertainment. It was
supposed that the program would be
carried out this year as usual and
had the boys seen fit to go ahead and
take the trip it would have been per
fectly satisfactory to the public and
no doubt the support would have
been as liberal and loyal as In the
past, despite the many demands that
have come to all this year. The flre
men had been doing some individual
thinking however and when the time;
came In the meeting last Friday
evening, to decide upon the annual
Junket, it was at once suggested that
the trip be dispensed with this yeaf;
that they go ahead as usual and raise
all the money possible and then
either give it to the Y. M. C. A. or
Red Cross or divide It between them
Hoys whom the older members had
not supposed were taking any inter
est either way, ftot up and argued
like skilled attorneys, for the above
program and when a standing vote
was ordered on the matter every
S remafl jumped to his feet. We say
"All hats off to the firemen." It
was unanimous and was promptly
voted to divide all funds secured at
the ball noon to be given and at the
annual ball and entertainment In
February, between the two organiza
tions equally after paying the ex
penses. This is going to mean a
nice sum for each and we hope to
se.- the public enter Into the spirit
with the same zeal that the firemen
have shown. r
The delegates named to attend the
state convention were Frank Nor
man for No. 1, Harry Dye for No. 2
and Archie Keep for "Hooks." War
ren Lincoln, Thomas Wright and
Lawrence Burger were named as al
ternates. If three men attend the
convention their expenses will be
paid by the department and It is
probably best that they go, though
there is some talk that they may de
cide not to spend even ithat much
money this year. The fact (that the
ord department already has four
members in the government service
has doubtless increased tha interest.
The members are Cecil Clark, Wil
liam Wright, Alpha Hill and C. I.
Mortinson.
Another matter decided at the
meeting last week was that the boys
would Invest whatever available
funds there was on hand in war
savings certificates. They already
have five hundred dollars in buildftng
and loan and the treasurer, E. B.
Banister, purchased a hundred dollar
liberty bond some time ipo. They
hope to have a couple of hundred
dollars to invest in the latest form
of government bonds, the saving certificates.
