TIMELY ASSISTANCE
PREVENTS BIG FIRE
AT SEVERN COTTAGE
House Owned By Mrs. Fowler Catches
Fire From Mice And Matches
Much Damage Prevented

What might have been a disastrous
fire was prevented by the timely as
sistance on Sunday afternoon of Major
Raleigh Thomas, who. with his family,
is occupying one Of the cottages own
cd by Mrs. Allen Lester Fowler, on the
Severn, near Wardour.
Major Thomas was resting on the
porch and enjoying a cigar late in the
afternoon when he smelled smoke. At
first he thought it was the cigar he
had been smoking. but the odor was OF
a different sort. He Immediately be-
gan an investigation and found the
woodwork between the partition on
the second floor of the cottage on fire.
He tore off the beaver board used in
the partition, and poured water be-
tween, being assisted by bucket
brigade formed by members of the
household Soon the fire was put out,
without material damage.
1t is thought the fire was caused by
mice nibbling at matches, as no other
cause can be assigned for its origin,
there having been no fire about the
premises.
Fortunately the fire caughT when
the family was at home, otherwise
the cottage would have probably
burned to the ground with all its fur
nishings, including valuable piano.
which was not insured.
The Thomas family is usually out
motoring on Sunday afternoon at the
time the fire was discovered, but hap
pened not to go last Sunday. The cot
tage is the one formerly occupied by
Prof. George Webster, organisr and
choirmaster of st. Anne's.

AMERICAN WOUNDED
TO BE LOOKED AFTER
(Associated Press)

Washington, April 7.-An exten-
sive program for caring for disabled
soldiers after discharge, is announced
by the war risk insurance bureau,
which has charge of this work.
Twenty-one hospitals are already in
use and the war department has turn
ed over seven camp hospitals for the
care of disability cases. These will
be improved out of the nine million
dollar fund provided by Congress.
When treatment in hospitals of the
war department fails to restore dis
abled soldiers to such condition that
they are fit for active service, and
they are discharged, the work of the
war risk insurance bureau begins.
All soldiers ten per cent disabled
from causes suffered on duty. are en-
titled to compensation and treatment
by this bureau. Any man disabled in
service and discharged may apply to
the nearest public health station. Men
who, after discharge, develop physical
disability attributable to military SER
vice, are entitled to treatment.
