OF country who wouldn't stop the
train, no difference when or where. to
Jet Dr. Hatfield on or OF as he went
ABOUT like a good Samaritan on his
errands OF mercy and helpfulness.
1T was well known by all that no

The Reed and Underwood restau-

stroyed by fire Saturday night. The
fire started in a coal shed near the
restaurant and before it was MOTTO
ed the restaurant was well under
blazecl Mrs. Underwood and little
son were sleeping in the restaurant
and were almost overcome before
they were rescued. The wind was
blowing a 40 mile gale and 1t look

town would be burned. The hotel
across the street was on fire once
but the two chemical carts and a
tblg bucket brigade were able to
hold the fire to the restaurant
building. The loss was about $1,000
totally, covered by insurance.

anything about the work.
