roads, and wardens are urged to co-operate with them 

 in all such cases, fcoth when a fire is burning and, so 

 far as possible, by a permanent understanding. (See' 

 sec. 68.) 



(29) A warden need not include, in his bill, men 



who go to a fire voluntarily. It is 

 Volunteers. advised, however, that any man who 



does good and necessary work at a fire be paid, 

 whether he was summoned or not. Refuse to pay 

 those who hang around or come in at the last 

 moment. 



(30) If a fire becomes too great for you to handle 



locally, telephone to your Division 

 Outside help. Firewarden or to the State Firewarden 

 at Trenton. 



(31) Do not expect your helpers to work without 



water or food. If you have a bad fire, 



ers - detail a man to supply water to all 



the fighters and send for food rather than let the 



men leave to get it. Reasonable bills on this account 



will be allowed. (See sec. 69.) 



Fighting Fire. 



(32) In attacking a fire remember that in the 



absence of a superior warden you are 

 e fighting. in command> and that the control of 



a fire is a test of your judgment and skill. When 

 you reach the fire, put your men at work at what 

 appear to be the most important points and appoint a 

 foreman for each crew. Then take time yourself to 

 size up the situation as a whole. Think it out and 

 place your men where they will do the most good. 



(33) If a warden is called out of his township, he 



should assure himself that the sum- 

 mons is official before going, or he and 

 his helpers may not be able to collect 

 pay for their services. (See sec. 65.) Wardens have 

 the same authority outside their district as in it, sub- 

 ject only to the control of the warden whose regular 

 territory it is. 



(34) The law authorizes a warden to set a back- 



fire or to plow land, when necessary, 

 to check a fire; no one else may do so,
