The motto of the brigade is, “When duty calls, there we am.” A good evening’s entertainment is in store. A collection will be taken at the gate% when the public are asked to assist the Fire Brigade by giving so as to enable them to send the best team to take part in the Fire Brigade’s Demonstration at Dannevirke at Easter.
