London Fire Services
The London Fire Services Ontario Canada has a long and illustrious history, with many disasters, tragedies, acts of heroism and an ever-changing role since its infancy as a volunteer "bucket brigade".  The first vestiges of a fire department appeared in 1838, when the district government decreed that each home had to have a leather fire bucket on hand to fight fires.  Each business had two buckets.  From those humble beginnings, London's fire service progressed to a number of independent brigades.  The entities were highly competitive and there were frequent punch-ups when two brigades arrived at the scene of a fire simultaneously.

Things became more orderly in 1873 with the establishment of a professional department under the direction of the city's first fire chief, Thomas Wastie.  The department has grown through the years from an initial contingent of 17 paid personnel, to the 400 or so individuals who staff it today.

London Police Service
The London Police Service can take some considerable pride in its 147 years of service.  Perhaps the Service's greatest achievement was to expand and modernize itself to meet changing conditions and provide proper police service.  The two dominant factors shaping the Service's development throughout the 147 years were, of course, the growth of population and the advance of science and technology.  The Service actively took up these challenges and developed itself into the distinguished organization it is today.  An adaptable Service proved itself to be the kind of police service needed by a changing London.

Lorne Avenue Public School
Lorne Avenue Public School has been around since 1850.  Between 1850 and 1875 the school was completed and opened East of Adelaide.  It started out as a two room brick building.  For a very short time the school was named Timothy Street.  Then later, as a tribute to a citizen, it was renamed "Anderson School".  Thought to have opened in 1875, no records have actually been found to show when it was officially opened.  During the opening celebration a hat was passed around for the "purpose of procuring a bell for the schoolhouse".  Late in 1879 an addition to the building was made.  Another two rooms were then added.  After Mr. Ambrose Stock was principal, the school was named Talbot Street School and then, again, renamed three years later to Lorne Avenue Public School.
