North Platte, Nebr.,
" July 20th 1920.
To tho Hon. Mayor & CUy Council,
North Platte, Nebr.
Gentlemen:
Tho members of the Firo Dept.,
Commltteo in accordanco with your
request for suggestions for improving
said department and for means to In
duce more men to join said depart
ment herowlth submit tho following
suggestions, and recommendations.
Wo recommend.first thnt an addition
two stories high bo constructed across
the south end of tho present Firo Sta
tion, wide enough to make three (3)
bedrooms above and leave space
enough bolow for 0110 or more stalls
for tho tiro equipment. This would
also enlargo tho basemont to suffloien
sizo to storo a full winter's supply of
coal. Tho extra stall could bo used
olther by tho Water Dept. for tholr
truck when they get one or for nil
extra firo truck when ono Is deemed
necessary by the City Council. -The
three bedrooms would enable
moro men to sleep at tho station at
night insuring at least 3 to 5 men
would bo ready to respond to any
alarm and tho bodioom being fur
nished free would attract mon to join
tho Firo Dopt. for tho flnanclnl ad-j
vantage If nothing else and the as
sociation of those men socially nlfht
after night together with their friends
would tend to build up a fooling of
unity of Interest and produce an In
terest in tho Fire Department. Man
is a social animal and tends to seek
tho society of his fellows. Men join
the Elks and other clubs in order to
have somo plnco to congregate to
gether and swap stories or enjoy
somo gamo or amugemont together
and tho samo things Which attract
men to such clubs will also tend to
attract them to tho Firo Dept., so we
offer as our second suggestion tho
fitting" up in the large hall upstairs
of a pool and billiard table and small
gymnasium,,vfhere of an ovening the
firemen and thejr friends can enjoy a
friendly boxing match, a game of pool
or billiards .or feats of strength or
o.thor athletic stunts. "With suc'i
things to be enjoyed free of chargo
by members of tho Fire Department
tho young fellows would bo found
joining tho Firo Dept., and playlnn
pool or enjoying other athletic di
versions, at tho Fire Station instead
of at" tho pool halls and would thus
bo an Incentive for a young man to
join such ah organization.
Our third suggestion would bo 'full
uniforms furnished for all firemen In
good standing. As tho department
stands at present there is not a uni
fomed man in it and when tho boys
appear on'parado on tho 4th of July
or go to tho cemetery on their mem
orial day thoro is nothing to dis
tinguish them from tho ordinary
cltzen. Whenever you put a man in
somo distinctive dross or uniform you
set him apart from tho ordinary man
and mark him as a momber of somo
special organization. Tho man in a
.Imso ball uniform feels ho is ono of
tho team and that ho is expected to
do his best to have his team win, so
with tho soldier and so also with tho
fireman. When a young follow puts
on a fireman's uniform ho uncon
sciously feels ho is "part of tho Fire
Department and gives his loyalty to
it.
Our fourth' suggestion has to ilo
with tho equipment of tho building.
At tho timo tho building wns con
structed a hoso drying rack was con
structed in tho South-West cornor of
tho South stall but it was novor finish
ed so that hoso has never been drlod
tlieroln but has to bo strotchod out
on tho sidewalk In front to dry. Thoro
should bo a proper hook and block
and tacklo constructed in tho top of
this- hoso drying rack to onablo tho
hoso to bo dravn un in It.
sugsost that this bo dono at your
earliest convenience. Wo
that If tho abqvo suggostlon and rec
ommendations bo carried out thoro
Heed bo no foar but that North Platto
will havo as sufficiently largo Firo
Department for any emergency which
may arise and on0 with tho best of
moralo and loyalty, ready to rospond
day or night' to protect tho property
Of our citizens from tho ravages of

Commercial Airlines.
The regular commercial nlr line has
already como to stay. At present the
longest passenger air service running,
or rather Hying, on regular air serv
ice Is between London nnd Paris. Tho
dlstnnco of 250 miles Is llown In about
three hours, often lens. The faro Is
nt tho rate of n shilling a mile, or
$07 for the trip. Even today these air
passengers' enjoy nil the luxuries of
tunilnrti ffnvnl. NoilHv n tifOl'O of 1WS-
sengdrs arg carried In. n comfortable
cabin, seatet In upholstered chairs.
The cabin Is lighted with electric
candles nnd decorated with glided mir
rors. Several transatlantic nlr lines
nre planned. It Is calculated that
they enn be run nt n profit' by charging
$500 for nn nlr passage. Boys' Life

The Dependable Tractor That
Burns Kerosene Completely
The 1225 H. P. Waterloo Boy
Tractor is just the kind of machine
that we like to put into the hands
of our customers.
There is nothing experimental about it.
Its dependability has been fully proved in years
of service on the farm. Every time we sell one,
we feel the assurance that the ownerjs going to
get fully satisfactory service from it." And that
means a great deal to the future of our business.
Right along with its dependability for
long-continued good work, there is another big
feature that you will appreciate every day you
use the Waterloo Boy.
It burns kerosene completely. Its pat
ented kerosene manifold one that you can get
on no other tractor converts all of the lpw
priced fuel into a pure gas, enabling the motor
to get full power from every drop.
That saves motor trouble no kerosene
gets into the lubricating oil. There is no car
bonizing of cylinders or fouling of spark
plugs. '
And it saves many dollars in fuel cost
every year of it3 operation.
You are sure to like all of the Waterloo
Boy's other features. It is simply made; easy
to keep in good running order. The working
parts, fully protected from dust, are placed
where you can easily get at them, whenever
necessary, through inspection plates and de
tachable casings. The motor, perfectly bal
anced and mounted on a solid foundation, runs
with only slight vibration no racking of mech
anism. Gears arc steel-cut and case-hardened
practically everlasting. It is equipped with
Hyatt Roller Bearings, famous throughout the
world for conserving full power. All bearing
points and gears are kept constantly in a bath
of oil by a perfect system of lubrication.
Be sure to come in some day soon and get fully
acquainted with the Waterloo Boy
