While going to Caldwell Monday
evening, Sid Walker met with what
might have proven to be quite a seri-
Gus accident. Within about four miles
of Caldwell Sid ran out of gasolene
and was getting some from car
from Ontario, when the gasolene ex-
ploded and set fire to the Ontario
mans clothes. With some quick ac-
ton and presence of mind on Sid's
part the fire in the other fellows
clothes was put out, but not until he
had received some bad burns, and Mr..
Walker had one hand badly burned.
1t isn't likely there will be any bad
results from the burns to either party
The top and cushions of the Walker
car were burned Being a Ford it
went right on again.
As you travel down the main street
of Bramwell, you will notice the fine
new home of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Burns, now occupied by the family af-
ter several months of patient labor
and waiting. Their house is large
and roomy and beauty to look at,
and when completed will be modern
in every respect and one of the best
in the valley. The cement work is
faced with cobble stones, which adds
so much to the outside appearance
of the house, and was done by Mr..
Burns himself.
