BETTY AND BILLY
<;<> BACK TO FARM
TO SPEND THEIR LIVES
CLINTON, Mass., May 15—“Betty
lul “Billy" have gone back to the
fa. m and Clinton’s fire department
has returned to its motorized efficicn- ;
cy. An upstanding pair of browns, the
horses were the pride of the fire
fighters until they became the cause >
.»f their disgrace.
Sleek and fat from a farm in an
adjoining town, they were obtained to
pull the town’s old fire-engine while
the new motor apparatus was being
repaired. The browns swept out the
engine-house to their first fire in a
manner to make old firemen speak |
with happy reminiscence of the horse-,
drawn days. Then came a night alarm.
Back on the fann, “Betty ” and
“Billy” Lad been accustomed not to
stir from sundown to sunrise, and no
din of fire-gong or urging by anxious
firemen would move them to answer
the alarm. All the fire department’s
split-second aids to a Quick start were
lost on the browns. They refused to
budge, the firemen had to go to the
blaze with chemical lines, and the
town folks laughed.
The firemen vowed the thing would
not happen again and the horses were
put through a stiff training. They
went to the day fires with spirit, and
the fire crew hoped they understood.
Rut another night ala.-m came, and
again “Betty” and “Billy” would not
move; once more the firemen went
afoot, hose in hand, and again the
town laughed at their discomfiture.,
The next day "Betty” and "Billy” |
' Trent baek to the farm.
