II. Hathaway and C. Carlson Reseus
Porker

William Chandler, who owns and
keeps II 800 pound porker in the rear
of his general store in the lower viii
lage, came very near to losing his
prize pig by drowning last Sunday
morning Mr.. Chandler has taken
much pride in exhibiting his pig to
his friends and all have congratulated
him upon his success. 1t remained
for Harry Hathaway and George Carl
son, however, to rescue the pig from
a watery grave.
When Mr.. Chandler went into his
store last Sunday morning he heard
the sound of water coming through a
leak in the pipe. A little investigat-
ing proved that said leaky pipe was
located above the pigs mansion. Mr..
Chambers first thought was to get
George Carlson, the boss piper. So
sending his son Reginald in one di-
rection and going in another himself,
he set out to find Mr.. Carlson.
Mr.. Carlson was not much alarmed
when he learned of the pipe and re-
fused to leave the work he was doing.
While hunting for Mr.. Carlson the ru-
NOR had gone around town that a big
water main had burst and the town
water supply was threatened. Harry
Hathaway, the master mechanic, was
notified and Mr.. Hathaway took his
auto and went after Mr.. Carlson.
These two gentlemen then motored
TO the scene of activity and heroically
rescued Mr.. Chambers famous pork
er. The burst main proved to be a
