Instructor Henry Good of the Farmersville Fire Dept. held classes on various skills. In the ropes and knots class, the men were shown how to use ropes to rescue people trapped in multiple story buildings where lad- ders might not reach high enough to get them out. The Rest Home rescue class taught the men how to assist elderly patients out of rest homes in case of emergency. Different car- ries were shown such as: the chair carry, blanket slides, assisting in walking, and wheelchair exits. The rope sliding. class gave the men the chance to learn how to repell cliffs and the various ways to do it. The Stokes litter and the army litter were also de- monstrated. The men lear- ned how to put the patients in them and how to secure them into these various types of litters. The men also learned how to use these litters on cliffs and in multiple story buildings. A major topic was the vehible rescue class. In- struction was given on the use of air chisels, porta- powers, come-a-longs, saws, and other small hand tools.
