Early Sunday evening fire somehow
caught in McKinney's bakery and did
considerable damage, especially to
the supply Of flour, before being ex-
tinguished by the hurriedly organized
brigade. No alarm was turned in, and
the fire was quickly subdued before
serious 'headway was gained.

Farm Agent A. |. Foard and as
sistant G. S. Hensley returned Sun
day from Columbia, where they mad
spent two weeks in attendance at the
State meeting of Farm Agents and
other agricultural preparedness and
conservation meetings. They report
by far the largest attendance ever
known at such meetings, as well as
a very unusual amount of enthusiasm,
which resulted in record-breaking
sessions, in every respect.
The weather cleared and warmed up
somewhat the last of the week, after
the longest cold spell this country had
experienced for many years, and
there were indications of warmer
weather. But it soon switched around,
or backed up, and by Sunday the Their
mometer had fallen to something
near the mark it had been registered
for weeks. But again the wintry
blasts are being dissipated by clear
ing weather and warm sunshine, and
is now approaching.

Mrs. H. P. Sutton, of Route 6, who
on Jan. 18th fell and severely strained
the ligaments in an ankle, is getting
along surprisingly well, which will
Her doctor had expressed the opin-
ion that she would be unable to get
around again for at least three
months. But Mrs. Sutton failed to
be depressed by such advice, and is
again up and about, which indicates
chat she possesses an unusual amount
of pluck and energy.
Notwithstanding the notice given
last week, in these columns, by Mayor
Guessing calling attention to the fact
that the city ordinance requiring side
walks to be kept clear of snow,
Times reporter has noticed several
walks in this city that still retain
practically all the snow that fell on
them two weeks ago. 1t is altogether
probable that few examples will
have to be made of what violation of
that ordinance means, before it will
be unanimously observed.
Circuit Judge Peter H. Huck was

Reports are current in different
parts Of the county that there are
coal hoarders in st. Francois county
even right here in Pennington. We
cannot believe that such report is
true in regard to this city. If it is
fact that there is any citizen of this
city who is "sitting on the lid' of
well filled coal bin, such fact should
be made known. In the eyes of the
Fuel Commission, at least, such a
citizen would be regarded as one Of
the worst kind of "slackers". In
times like the present it is difficult to
understand how any good citizen can
pursue such a course, when many Of
his neiglfbors--even if not friends
are suffering from the lack of fuel.
The Bohemian Orchestra, the third
number Of the Monarch winter enter
