Forest Fires
Are Spreading

The forest fire that started yester-
day afternoon near Glenbrook result
ed in call for volunteers from this
city to fight the flames. An auto load
was sent to the scene. but on arriving
at the Glenbrook Inn they were
promptly turned down and told that
their services were not needed. The
boys who made the trip came home
pretty sore and should the fire threat
en- every building the Bliss people
own it is doubtful if helping hand
could be found in this city.
The fire, which was started by cm-
ployees of the Inn, had spread over
the summit above Glenbrook and was
sweeping toward the Spooner mead
ows. From this point it is headed
toward North Canyon where it will
eventually work its way to the top of
the ridge back of this valley. Those
who visited the scene state that the
fire is past control and the handful
of men fighting the flames are prac-
tically helpless The flames are reach
ing for lands that are not owned by
the Bliss people and it will probably
be up to the owners to finish fight
ing the flames.
