FIRE SUNDAY MORNING
DESTROYS HAMMONS HOME

Fire of unknown origin broke
ont at the home of Mack Hammons
Sunday morning at 1880 O'Clock.
The house is located Immediately
back OF the new post office and but
for the quick work of few men
who were drawn to the scene by pis-
toll shots and shouts OF fire, a much
more serious situation might have
developed. Attaching the hose from
the old fire depot they did fine and
timely work. The new Ere fighting
apparatus failed to arrive until the
danger was over and 1t would seem
that some adjustment OF the pre-
sent arrangement is in order. II
was first necessary TO arouse some
one at the Dixie Inn and then the
engine seemed to suffer from non
combustion in it's vitals so that it
could not be brought forth until the
old fire hose had been at work for
some time. 1t is said the truck is
not equipped with self starter.
Mr.. Hughes, who works at the
Hammons Restaurant, and others
had time TO make sure no one was
trapped in the house and also to
carry out a little of the furniture
before abandoning the house to the
flames. The loss is a heavy one for
Mr.. Hammons who carried only a
little insurance on his furniture. He
had expected to move the house
further back on the lot this week
preparatory to building new home
Mrs. Hammons and the children
had left Saturday for a visit with
home folks.
The cost OF fire is heavy and the
best action only is worthy OF Bar
bourville in fighting it. First OF all
good trustworthy man who under
stands the machine should not only
be in charge of it, but should sleeI
in the same building in which 1t II
kept. There should be an alarm
bell installed to awaken him in cast
of fire and an electric attachment tC
keep the engine warm, if necessar!
with a self starter to prevent un
necessary delay which may mean thu
difference between property saved
or lost.
There should be no delay in get
ting the fire department on an ef
ficiency basis. The natural tend
ency will be to turn to the lates
firefghting method to the exclusion
of the old which in the affair o
Sunday morning probably woul'
have proved to be a costly mistake

BRITISH COLUMBIA HERO

Before the eyes Of scores Of specta-
tors, two boJ scouts OF Vancouver.
h. c., Allen woOton and HamIsh Da-
wilson recently covered themselves
with glory by crawling out on the
treacherous melting Ice OF Coal Har-
Dor and rescued Bruce Mcintyre, the
fourteen year-old son Of Rev. r. J. NC
Intyre. The boy had been skating
and was about 200 feet out from shore
when without warning the ice gave
way. precipitating him into the water.
He made a game struggle to pull him
self out, but the Ice was too rotten TO.
cling to.
Many people saw the boys pligff'
but none dared venture out To MS
rescue as tie ice obviously would
bear no mans weight. Ladders were
run out. Even this improvised bridge
was precarious, as by this time the
ice was breaking ur on all sides. The
two scouts volunteered 10 attempt the
rescue, Davidson skating out as near
ms he could to the ladder while Woo
ton crawled out on the laeder, drop
ping q rope and another small ladder
behind him. Between them the res
cuers managed to push the extra lad
der under the drowning boy and pry
min TO the surface Of the ice. People
on the shore then hauled In the rope
and all three boys landed safely just
as the police arrived. First mid was
given young Mcintyre, and In the ex-
citement the two rescuers slipped
away, nobody having even inquired
their names. Later, however the
young heroes were sought out, though
they made light Of the incident and
would not permit their pictures to be
published until they secured the prom
ise that the fact they were boy scouts
should be mentioned and the chief
credit given TO the organisation which
had given them the trnining which had
enabled them to do the good'turn. Both

society Perkins had missed greatly
since his parents had moved to an
other part of town. Cant get home

home. Want to play" Nevertheless
he consented 10 be taken back TO his

TO WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN

The United States Public Health
Service and the State Board OF
Health has stated that for some
reason there has been a noticeable
let down in the sending in OF the
report Of notihable diseases. l am
writing to ask you to communicate
with your physicians and stimulate
them in making reports again.
have received advice from the Sur
geon General that the only way
these reports can be uniformly Sc
cured is to call the attention OF the
Courts to the cases OF the persis-
tent Offenders. / would hardly be-
Iieve this is necessary with the med
ical profession OF Krox County, as
I believe the doctors OF Knox COun-
ty are in favor Of enforcement OF
all health laws, but II anyone per-
sists in falling to report contagious
diseases ! am asked to call the
County and Commonwealths attor-
neys to bring IL TO the attention OF
the grand jury.
While the Fiscal Court is oppos-
ed to the enforcement Of health
laws by their action in making a
salary OF $4,000 year for the
County Health Oficer. less than
any amount ever appropriated by
any other Fiscal Court in the past
thirty-6ve years. The medical pro
fession has got to keep clean
house and do their duty by the pro-
fession and the public.
So make report OF ali contagious
diseases as promptly as heretofore
and / will promptly forward them
to the State Board OF Health and in
case OF outbreak OF contagious di-
seases, will have to ask the State
Board OF Health to come and take
charge for which the county will
have to pay expenses.
In conclusion / want to quote
from the Judges Of the Court OF Ap-
peals in rendering decision in favor
Of the State Board of Health:
"If the poor man is neglected he
may starve or freeze, but the calam-
ity is personal and the grave hides
it, but il, having an infectious di'
sease which poisons the air, he is
left where he lies the entire com
munity is menaced. In such cases
the Statute confers on the Board
the power to do what it may deem
necessary TO prevent the spread OF
tn diseases, and the county mus
pay the necessary epense."
The Fiscal Court by their actor
says. LET the poor man 60 unat

l would suggest that in the flu
ture every person, before casting ;
ballot, should study well that he o
she is voting for a man that favor
