These letters all come to US full of

help a bit with our money and
prayers? There are thousands of
people over there that never heard

might hear the gospel from the
lips of a Missionary, if you people
who are not in sympathy with the
work of Foreign Missions could
hear the signs and sohs of those
poor people who do not know the
Christ, they live a life that you and
/ know nothing about, dare we re-
fuse them, Christ he is their only
hope. Mrs. Farnham read, THE

Madison Has Heavy Fire Loss

Madison, Me, April THE planning
mill of Harry Hagopian with its con-
tents was destroyed by fire about 5
O'Clock this morning. The fire was
first seer by Mrs. Foss as she was at
work in the Foss restaurant. Alarm
was promptly given and although the
fire station was nearby and the de-
partment responded promptly the
whole building was a roaring mass of
flames when they arrived and but lit
tie could be done toward saving the
building itself. The mill was a large
two story wooden structure located
Just back of the Blackwell block on
Main street and close by are a num-
Der of large wooden buildings, MAX
ing a bad fire trap. Had there been
any wind nothing could have saved a
large section of Main street from de-
struction. AS it was the Blackwell
Block caught fire on the roof several
times and the heat was so intense
that the sides of other buildings close
by were blackened. Blazing shingles
dropped on the roof of the Simonds
garage, the old Smell house back of
the Mckenzie block and the store
occupied by the Waugh pool room
and barber shop. These were prompt
ly e~xtinguished by volunteer watch
ers.
The upper story of the north end of
the mill vas occupied by bowling al
leys and six pool tables. In the base
ment of the mill was stored a guam
tity of seasoned hard wood lumber.
The building was closed at IL o'clock,
Wednesday evening and the fire when
first seen was breaking through the
roof. The origin of the fire is un-
known, but it may have been caused
by a cigarette or cigar stub thrown
carelessly down. A small wooden
building adjoining the mill and occu-
pied by the Madison Furniture Com
pany as a store room for furniture
