BEHIND FUSE
CAUSES SWITCH FIRE
Blaze Breaks Out While Recep-
ton Is On In S. S. Room At
First Presbyterian Church

While a reception was being
held at the handsome new First
Presbyterian church Wednesday
evening the electrical switch in
the Sunday School room began to
blaze. For few minutes it was
feared that serious fire might
result and an alarm for the fire
department was quickly turned in
by L. T. Wiggins and was quickly
answered. by the department.
Electricians George Blanton, Geo.
Myers and Smithers got to work
on the switchboard and soon had
the blaze out.
An examination showed that
behind five fuses controlling the
lighting arrangements OF differ
ent sections of the church five
copper pennies had been placed.
Mr.. Myers stated that it is often
the custom where fuses blow out
to place pennies behind them to
secure current contact against in
stead of installing new fuses. This
custom often results in burning
the insulation off the wires. how
ever. and il was this that caused
the switchboard to catch fire. The
damage was trifing but might
have been serious had the blaze
occurred when the building was
empty and it had been allowed to
gain headway. A large crowd
assembled at the church when i
was noised about that it was on
fire.
