#100YearsAgoToday in #YYC: Fire Chief James “Cappy” Smart is scheduled to be Santa Claus at a party for 100 children of firefighters at Fire Hall No. 2 (extant at 1807 Macleod Tr SE). An alarm comes in while he is putting on the costume, and Smart heads off to the fire as Santa Claus. It turns out to be a chimney fire, and he is back at the party before long.
