they early realized that Hagerstown need
ed them as Hagzerstown needs other lo

kave suecesided splendidly. This ety
ows them much for inaugurating the
Muommers' Parade, which attracts thous

eliminates rowdyism. This one of many
spevesstal endeavors. in our opinion, re
peys the Alsatia Club for all their ef

notes Efficiency; Fire
Rates Are Low i
While cities, towns and villages thru-|
sut the evuntiry were kept busy battling
fires which destroyed millions of dolars|
worth of property. and in many instanees |
elaimed the lives of citizens, Hagerstown |
passed through the severs eold weather|
with an extremely low fire loss. This|
faet should agzain bring home to the eiti-|
zens of Hagerstown that they are for-/
tonate in having an efficient and well |
srzanized fire department.
This city is one of the few of its size |
in the United States that can boast of|
an orzamization of volunteers who kmow |
how to fight fires offectively. When the
department is eriticized, the critiesm|
usually eminates from those who either|
have never helped the firemen or who
know nothing about it. Annually, each
department sends a group of members
of members to Baltimere for a period of
training which proves invaluable to eiti-|
zens and taxpavers of Hagerstown daring !
a conflagration. i
Proo? of the department’s efficieney is|
shown in the city's €re insuranece rates.
which are unusually low.
Hagerstown can look to its Fire De
partment with a great deal of pride and
anologize to no one for the enthasiasm.
efficiency and loyalty of its fire-fighters.
