B I ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ I We Want To Be Your Good Neighbor *LI II In The Lakeland Community I II Our Thanks To The Syracuse Volunteer Fire Department I Local services such as a volunteer fire department are usually taken for granted, until one has use for them. We’ve known this for a long time, as most everyone has, and I I have fallen into the usual trap of taking these men as a matter of HMh ;.H course in our daily lives. , , \ . fc Well, this attitude can change quickly when one has a fire himself and has to call on these public services. ■ I This was our case, unfortunately, last Thursday evening when £ A we had our fire at VyLactos Laboratories, We called for help and it came immediately. In fact, we had to call for help a second time, |**l and again it came immediately. Y For,this we want to say “thank you” to all the men who . \ responded to our call. We deeply appreciate it. II We regret that two firemen were hospitalized briefly due to " ■ smoke and dust injury, and are pleased that their suffering was only fl I II We’re back in business again. But we can’t really .tell you how much we appreciate the Syracuse Fire Department. Were so ■ fortunate to have these brave men at our beck and call. y ; BH This is a case where Syracuse has been a Good Neighbor to us. • » I Brown VyLactos Company JI | L« YOUR GOOD NEIGHBOR COMPANY fl|Bg| Iqjllj 800 S.
