A. J. Bargagni of No. 13 Truck Company, has had a vision of that achievement in the back of his mind ever since he started the movement for an annual firemen's jubilee six years 0. Each year he has encouraged a spirit of brotherly co-operation and under- standing between the local firemen and the volunteers beyond the District Line, by getting them' together annually to roplace the iendencies toward ridicule | and discord which once prevailed.

CEDAR 1SLAND LODGE, BRULE 1.—Herbert Hoover’s advocacy of the development RIVER, Wis, September of inland waterw: as a means of providing cheaper transportation in this country should bring him many votes in the agricultural sections, according to the viewpoint of Dwight F. Davis, Secretary of War, who spent today here | with President Coolidge. Sccretary Davis, while discussing this subject at the Summer Capital to- night before leaving for the East, stated that the matter of distribution and mar- keting of agricultural products fs the one great problem today Theme for His Tour, Secretary Davis looks upon waterway development &s so important a factor that he proposes to use it as his prin- ipal theme during his forthcoming campaign speaking tour. He wants to remind the farmers of Mr. Hoover's be- lef In this subject, and his ability to |solve the distribution problem Secretary Davis expresses the belief that the farmers are awakening to the fact that the election of Gov. Smith holds out nothing for them i the way | of substantial relief. He expects (o present his watervays in the Middl West and Northwest.

Smith has ndicated his opposition in the past Hot Fight in Missouri. In his own State of Missouri, Secre- tary Davis sald he expected to take part in the fight, which he admitted would probably be hot. He pointed out, how- ever, that the Missouri Democrats are divided by prohibition.

Foresees Reserve Force. Sergt. Bargagni's plan—and his eyes cparkle as he expounds his vision—is 1o have each company outside the city | so well drilled, not only in the funda- mentals, but in the details, such as the routine of station houses, that they can move up like the reserves in an army and take their places in station houses in the city as the city companies themselves are called out to some con- fagration. Such a plan, he belicves would give the National Capital a re- cerve force which would be so expert as to protect adequately against any posible great disaster from fire. For instance, he would have the vol- unteer companies drilled in the use of the books at the station houses here. | The volunteers in the absence of the regulars would know when the calls | come in, when and where they were to | The volunteers would know how ! to respond to fires like the veterans of | creased to 42 with official notification act. the paid department here. drills which have been given by the | Washington sergeant. And the benefit is not all on cne side either, he believes. ~Admittin; that he is highly enthusiastic over the spirit of the volunteer companies in outlying sections, Sergt. Barganni be- iteves there is an eagerness and willing- ness in the spirit of the volunteer that kindles something anew in the hoart of the veteran fireman here who draws pay for his everyday job, and conse- { quently becomes used to it as a com- monplace thing. New Features Yearly. Then there is the spectacular, dra- matic part of the annual celebration ! which is growing, and proves of deep | satistaction to his worker from the iranks. He has seen it grow from a few clowns to help draw a crowd for the annual firemen-police ball game, to a full day's celebration of its own. Year by year have been added new | features. ~ “Who knows,” queries the sergeant, “but the Mardi Gras here may grow to the proportions of the great | New Orleans fete> Or greater?” The modest fireman, who has also been energetic enough to develop in Washington the Honor System Newsbox Co. now familiar to citizens in every corner of the city at street car and bus | stops, has been 28 years in the depart- ment, and some day before long will retire. He has three daughters and a son, and the boy, Joseph FPrancis, is working into the newbox company bu: ness. One daughter, Louise, | teacher in the Hayes School. and there are two other daughters, Mildred and ! Elsie. They live at 212 K street north- east.
