Last Thursday's Blaze.
Following is the names of the fire
men present at the fire to look after
the base and cart, to un-reel and put
the hose on the rack to dry and reel
up dry hose on the cart: Will French,
James Johansen, .1. A. Cole. Skip
Thrasher, Lou Winklemann. Walter
McNulty. Ed. Veeder. Fred Korn
rumpf. Chas. Gibson, II. Jung, Wes
Pedler.. We were assisted by many
others in making the run in remark
able good time. Some fell by the
wayside, but that did not stop the
speed, the boys kept right on going
faster and faster and never stopped
for anything, but kept right on just
as though it was the real thing. It
reminded me of the good old davs
gone by when Loup City had the
tamous hose team of this country
known as the Baken team. There are
only three men left who ran in
harness with the team in the tourna
ment— H. S. Conger, A. M. Bennett
and S. E. Gallaway. When we came
home in our special car Loup City
gave the team a reception second to
none given to any team. Will Marey
and Frank Brewer were the men wlfo
looked after the cart and kept; the
axles in trim and how they would lift
on the rear end of the cart to give us
a good start. We had no trouble in
winning the money from the 150-vard
water test to the long hub and ‘hub
race, although we only run ten men,
while all other teams had fifteen men.
Baken was manager and W. R. Mellor
time-keeper. On the train coming
home the team composed a song
which ran something like this:
On the race track we had some l un.
Rub-da, ruh-da, day.
The Baken time was thirty-one,
Ruh-da, ruh-da, day!
On the race track they did sigh.
When they saw the Bakens' fly,
Ruh-da, ruh-da, day!
The Hub race we all ranged in line,
Ruh-da, ruh-da, day!
The Baken line wks thirty-nine;
Ruh-da, ruh-da, day!
We all came home tonight,
Now what's the matter with the
Baken team?
You bet they’re all right!
This happened many years ago, and
will be remembered bv many of our
citizens. S. E. <5allaway,
Chief of present Fire Company.

CROSS EYES!
are in 9 cases out of 10 the result of Eye-Strain, which if
relieved by glasses in early life would never cause crossed
eyes.
Preliminary symptoms of Eye troubles that cause crossed
eves are: Pain in back of eyes; pain in temples, sometimes
running over ears: print jumps after reading for a time.
These are strong symptoms that the eyes will soon cross ui -
less the eye-strain is removed.
It will pay you to see me at the St. Elmo hotel.
