Our Volunteer Firemen Don’t Need to Be Fixed

I am writing in praise of our volunteer firemen — a dedicated group who have contributed their time and services to this community for years and years.

Volunteer fire departments are among the last vestiges of small town life, most of which, sadly, are passing away. The volunteers have fought our fires, Township and Borough, with skill and devotion. They have great pride in their ability and great rapport and comradeship among themselves.

Until Princeton actually does become another Broadway and 42nd Street, let’s leave them alone.

“If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!”
