In Eldorado, Texas - the fire whistle still "blows" every day at 12 noon 
and has done that for at least the last 75 years or so.

For many years until she passed away, Ms. Wilson (who was crippled and 
stayed at home for years) answered the telephone 24 hours a day and 
sounded the Fire Whistle to call the Volunteer Firemen when there was a 
fire.  Schleicher County paid Ms. Wilson for her "duties".

She also sounded the "Fire Whistle" every day at noon.

To this day, the citizens all stop what they are doing and go to lunch 
at the sound of the "Fire Whistle" at noon.  Now, the Fire Whistle is 
controlled by the Sheriff Department.
