WHAT  A  CREW

A fire started on some grassland near a farm.
The C.D.F. fire department was called
to put the fire out.
The fire was a more than the C.D.F.
 could handle.
Someone suggested that a nearby
volunteer bunch be called.
Though there was doubt that the volunteer outfit
would be of any assistance, the call was made.
The volunteers arrived
in a dilapidated old fire truck.
They rumbled straight towards the fire
and stopped in the middle of the flames.

The firemen jumped off the truck and frantically
started spraying water in all directions.
Soon they had snuffed out the center of the fire,
breaking the blaze into two
easily controllable parts.

Watching all this,
the farmer was so impressed with
the volunteer fire department's work and
was so grateful that his farm had been spared,
that right there on the spot he presented
the volunteers with a check for $1000.

A local news reporter asked
the volunteer fire captain what the
department planned to do with the funds.
"That oughta be obvious," he responded,
wiping ashes off his coat.
"The first thing we're gonna do is
get the brakes fixed on that darn old fire truck."
