As a prelude to the things to come, the company in another letter, listed the items of equip- ment needed for 1962. Besides the usual gear, such as coats, boots, rope, etc., the company suggested that a new two-way radio for one truck be pur- chased, a new resuscitator, a radio alarm system and that} the two red fire trucks be paint- ed yellow to match the new machine, Regarding the alarm system, the letter stated: "the alarm system is a point that has been under constant criticism for some long time and we are find- ing it more difficult each year to hear the present alarm sys- tem." For many years now, the members of the brigade are called tu the hall by a siren. Until recent years, the siren was mounted on the roof of the old town hall. Now it is mount- ed on a tripod near the corner of Colborne and Green street. "T feel the public is becoming more annoyed by the sounding of the present siren," said Mr. Mowat in his letter to council.
