THE FIRE STATION
A long time ago dwellers of Silute built a house that had to become a historic building. The builders
protected the dwellers from any rigour.
Those people extinguished the fire , took down cats of the trees.
The dwellers really respected those people and called them as firefighters.
Word fireman was derivated from the words fire and man. The firefighters did not have a place to
gather and it was decided to assign the historic building to those people. The historic building was
turned into a fire station and was constantly decorated. The equipment was developed as well.
There appeared cars, water hoses and so on. That’s how the fire station appeared and was developed
in Silute.
