Fire Department Called
Huntley firemen responded to a call a little before 9 p.m. Sun- clay <'\<'niiiK, Juno 30. The fire was in a pile of dead trees behind the Marlowe Feed and Hatchery building near the Chicago, North¬ western lailroad tracks. Somehow earlier in the evening the trees (M)Ught firo and by the time fire¬ men arrived on the scene the blaze was reaching some 30 to 40 feet in the air.
Tho Huntloy firemen used both trucks to extinguish the blaze. One of tho trucks was hooked on¬ to the fire hydrant with the or¬ derly precision of a big city fire department. The other fire truck worked vvith the orderly precision of a big city fire department. The other firo truck worked to exting¬ uish the blaze unti^l^ater sup¬ ply ran out. The F^T)epartment put out the fire in a little less than one hour's time.
Tho burning trees were lying in a grove of living trees and the only damage was to several of the trees surrounding tj^^^ile. Had it not been for an Wtterly wind blowing sparks and debris, the Hunlley Fire Department would ha\o let the pile burn. However, the wind was blowing sparks which Ihey felt might ignite a fire in other parts of town, due to the di\ness  in  tho entire  community
