Dearborn, who was chief of the department 24 years, recently retired because of ill health. Since 1896, when the growth of the village demanded that some means be taken to protect property against fire hazards, the Volunteer Fire department has been significant of the manner in which groups of individuals may be counted upon to respond to a community need. Names of families answering the call of early days are still represented in the per sonnel. In the beginning, when Louis Thom as, now of Lyons, was marshal, and the late Andrew Berg was assistant marshal, none of the original 32 mem bers received any pay. Inspired by civic pride, neighborllness, and un selfishness that was mingled with the spirit of adventure and which encouraged camaraderie, they were will ing to be called out at any hour.

Stipulation also was made that a penalty of from 55 to 525 be imposed upon any one for failing to comply with a fireman's demand for the use of a team to haul equipment to and from fires.

Fred C. Crowe has practically grown up with the department. He was chasing fires even before he joined up witii the group in 1896. He has served as assistant under several chiefs. His father, Fred K.

Crowe, and brother, William Crowe, also were original members. Among others were C. C. Neuschaefer, now chief of police in Riverside; Charles A. Hallam Dave Chicken, Chris Berger, Al Hlnton, Mike Donnhue, W.

J. Oppcr William Taylor Fred W. Sel-lcrs and Dennis Creedon. The two best remembered fires fought by the department occurred in 1913. That year, the original, water tower, landmark of the village, was destroyed, and several lives were lost in the fire at the Scottish home.

The picturesque town hall also has been scorched at various times. Equipment Is Modern. Modern equipment has gradually replaced that of the early days. The department possesses a life net that thus far has been used only for train ing purposes. Members of the department at pres ent are James B.
