Saturday fire broke out in the attic

building, and although much help was
secured the building was entirely de-
stroyed. Mr.. and Mrs. Hiram Hedin.
who were living in the place, got
practically all of their household
goods out in time. A great deal of
work was required to keep the lum-
Der sheds from burning, but the wind
fortunately was in the direction to
blow the fire away from them. Bucket
brigades were formed and almost
everyone in the country was on hand
to help. The fire department was
called from Mora, and upon arriving
here they connected the hose and
started for the fire, when the hose
broke, letting about half of the chem
ical on the ground. BY the time they
could remiX the chemicals and get
ready to fight the fire again, the fire
was practically under control. How
ever, all are very grateful to the
Mora fire department for the kind aid
and hope they have better luck next
time. The burning of this building
removes an old landmark in this town
and makes the town look rather bare.
