NOTICE
TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC
I
—
Each time the fire whistle j
blows the telephone operator must
call some twenty volunteer fire
men of the location of the fire.
Many are on party lines and the
calls are obstructed by inquiries
from others of "where's the fire"
It is the earnest request of the
City of Nome that its residents
give the operator TEN MINUTES
to get her calls to the volunteersj
before making their inquiries.
This co-operation will get your
volunteers to the fire in much
quicker time.
