Sunday certainly came in with a

: more hours or that white stuff and
all records' would have been
eclipsed-r-as well as Freeport!
Once again the lionses were man-ned
by volunteer crews during Sun-day
and Monday, night. This is
done -because of the difficulty of
getting to a firehou.se through snow-choked
. roads in the 'event of an
alarm and by having men in the
house they can immediately get
under, way. And each company is
certain to have enough men to man
Its equipment. Another duty per-formed
By the night crews is to
keep the entrance to Ihe house
clear of .snow and ico 'so Ihe appara-tus
can get out without diflicuHy it'

of the comrades also traveled
through the village keeping Ihe

Last but not least, the annual

held n week ago Sunday was a
grand and glorious time. More

the afternoon next to the appear-ance
of good old Santa Clans and
the presentation of gifts to' every

remove from the public streets
