LAWYER, McGrath, >McGregor, Isle and
other towns within 60-mile radius of
Moose Lake Famed by wind of
high velocity the flames are roaring
through pine forests and settlements
previously untouched and indications
are scores more many lose their lives
and their belongings.
Home guards, led by state forestry
officials, are battling desperately
against the rush of fire. Fire fight
ers were driven back few miles from
Lawler by solid sheet of flame four
miles wide, and fire IL miles in width
was steadily advancing on McGrath,
White Pine and Solana, Is miles west
CT here.

mand of the Home Guards and men,

200 guardsmen from Anoka to fight
the fire at Aitkin, go miles west Of
MOOSE Lake. i uey were u arrive Oh
a special train
Throughout the territory now threat
ened by the flames conditions much
the same as in the Moose Lake region
where settlers persisted by the hun
bred, are prevailing. Everywhere are
tiny settlements, with farms thickly
dotting the adjacent country. 1t was
from the farms that the fire on Sat
urday took it's heaviest toll, and the
authorities, using every means to pre-
vent another tragedy, are considering
calling out the entire National Guard
of the state in an attempt to check
further spread of the blaze.
Adjutant General Rhinow and 100
men in autos of the Motor Corps have
gone to Lawler. Two hundred addi-
tional guards arrived here in special
train, and 100 OF them are to be sent
to the Lawler region as soon as mo-
tors are available. In one of the first
autos to leave for Lawler was Gov
ernor Burnquist.

Paris, Oct. II. - Summing up the
situation on the British front, the
Echo de Paris says that Douai vir-

regiment while engaged in battle on
Oct. / was decimated. The companies
in two battalions, according to the
prisoner, were reduced to 80 men and
two other supporting battalions suf-
fered heavily from artillery and air.
