Baker home, 404 Orleans avenue,
scorched this morning when come
gasoline which Mr.. Frye was wiring

i ne cloth was wooden and it is be-
l1eved that sufficient static electricity

cause a spark to ignite the fluid
There SENS no other solution as Mr..
Frye was not smoking.
The gasoline becoming ignited
burned his hands severely, but it is
not expected that there will be any
serious consequences. The fire was
communicated to the gasoline already
used on the porch, and the wood work
was scorched. The window castings
and door frames communicating with
the porch were scorched with the
heat of the flames.
The fire department was called, re-
ceiving the alarm at 1925 o'clock. The
Babcock extinguishers carried on the
truck were used in putting out the
blaze.

once for Mr.. Frye and his burns

the hands and wrists, his clothes did
not become igntted. fortunately.

SPEAKING of the possibility of Germany doing

ment takes over the food supply of its people,
crisis is approaching"
This, like all other attempts to apply general
izations to Germany, is pretty much drivel. Ac-
cording to the expert economists, Germany ought
now TO be standing at some corner of the world
begging for bread. Before the war, Germany inn
ported, annually si,25o,oooooo worth Of farm
products and food. BY the laws of figures and
theory she should have been starved to death
three months ago. She wasn't.
The people of Germany are so organized
