| Transcription | "Tel-A-Larm: This fire alarm device, built by Solomon S. Schimke of Bowdon from two pinball machines and other odds and ends, does a lot of time-saving things when the telephone operator turns in a report of a fire. It is installed in the firehall at Bowdon, where the volunteer fire department has two trucks." - caption with image published in the Sunday Fargo Forum, May 27, 1956, p. C-1. |
