Required Valiant Work.
The efficient volunteer fire de-
partment working under the direc-
tion of Chief G. c. Davis. worked for
an hour and a half on the spectacu-
lar fire. and because OF the good
water pressure supplied by the fire
engine was enabled to confine the
flames to the one building. For a
time IL seemed impossible that the
firemen could keep the flames from
spreading TO the Jackson brick
building on the west, occupied by
the Arthur e. Anderson office. or to
frame building on the east, housing
Lee Corners second hand store and
cream station. The contents OF the
latter building were removed to

The alarm was turned in at 1920
a. m. Wednesday by J. B. Brennan,
depot agent. Two streams of water
were being played on the burning
structure in about five minutes after
the first sounds of the siren. The
firemen came in for a good deal of
praise for the ability shown and the
systematic manner in which they
put the fire under control.

Indications are that the fire start
ed in the rear of the Filler bakery,
operated by Lake C. Rice. About 80
minutes before the alarm was
turned in, Mr.. and Mrs. Rice had
been in the shop. where the former
set his bread dough for the night.
Customers were also in the place
Just before midnight, but there were
no evidences OF smoke at that time.
This part OF the building suffered
the worst from the fire. The rear of
the bake shop. which contained ex-
pensive mixing and wrapping ma
chinery. was burned out. n. A. /
