Your faith was strong and true,
You walked the path of light,
And Jesus walked with you.

Considerable commotion was created
Tuesday afternoon when an alarm OF
fire was given at Mr.. R. F. Weichert.
The usual crowd rushed to the resi-.
dence to render assistance but 1t
developed that it was a false alarm.
The stove pipe in one of the rooms en-.
ters-the fiue above the ceiling and in
some way the pipe slipped out OF the
fiue and the smoke poured from the
pipe into the garnet and began to es'
cape through the shingles over the
entire roof. The scene naturally ap.
peared as if the whole building was
doomed, but fortunately no fire was
discovered.

Hoping that all will turn out on
