DALLAS FIRE CHIEF
WARNS OF DANGER
BURNING REFUSE
After seeing a scorched spot
on the roof of Dallas Branch,
Miners National Bank Building,
Fire Chief, James Besecker
states that it is time property
owners get wise to the dangers
of burning rubbish, especially
papers and corrugated board,
without some safeguard against
flying embers.
The half consumed piece of
corrugated board had apparent-
ly blown up from an incinerator,
still afire, and burned itself out
on the roof. It was discovereed
when W. B. Jeter, Mr. Besecker,
and Paul Shaver went to the
roof last Friday to investigate
possibility of locating the 250
pound fire siren on the coping.
Chief Besecker points out
that the cause for a big fire in
Meshoppen five years ago was
burning waste paper which
lodged in a protected spot and
smouldered without being de-
tected. He calls attention to
the danger of eaves loaded with
pine needles if a stray spark
should be carried to the ex-
tremely combustible material.
Householders as well as busi-
nessmen burning quantities of
material easily windblown,
should take care to cover the
incinerator, and not burn at all
in a high wind.

Firemen Discuss It
At Monday Session
A community ambulance for Dal-
las was discussed at Monday night's
meeting of Dr. Henry M. Laing Fire
Company, held at Back Mountain
Memorial Library. Members were
about equally divided between tak-
ing the plunge now, or putting the
matter over until spring, after the
new Borough Building has been
gotten into shape. The matter was
tabled until the January meeting,
with preliminary discussion sched-
uled for a special meeting some
time in December.
According to Fire Chief James
Besecker, residents need an ambu-
lance, but they have just been
asked for substantial contributions
to a new fire truck, recently pur-
chased. An ambulance should be
the best and most modern attain-
able, and such models are expen-
sive.
Norti Berti suggested a commu-
nity ambulance three years ago,
long before Kingston Township took
the step to buy one and train a
squad of drivers and assistants.

Residents of Dallas Borough. and

In the opinion of many yosidents,
it is time to get going on an ambu-
lance unit. Theie is plenty of room
for housing of an ambulance at the
Borough Building. Popular subscrip-
tion would be moderate, and up-
keep not burdensome. The country
is becoming civil-defense minded,
and an ambulance is a must.

eminence with a commanding view,
with grounds beautiful and spa-
cious, nicely shaded with maples,.
