The Com- mission's first important assignment will be to find a suitable tank truck, agreeable to the Fire Department as well as to the three townships involved. - Secondly, an addition to the fire hall is required, as rec- ommended in the recent survey conducted by the Fire Marshall.

At present remuneration to the fire men have been based on an hourly rate as far as the two Townships are concerned, while the Village have paid an annual fee.

A St. Patricks Party was held on Monday after- noon, March 17th, and again this proved a most interesting event not only for the men but for the volunteers as well.
