station. Attention, all districts. That's it. Presenting firefighters, the true to life story of our unsung heroes who stand ready to ride by day or night against our most murderous enemy, the demon of fire. In just a minute, we'll go direct to the workshop of the great Vesuvio, where a demonstration of his new invention, the phosphorescent
