TWO CHILDREN
DIE AS FLAMES
DESTROY HOMES

Two small children met their
death yesterday afternoon in fire
which left two families homeless
and which, but for the prompt and
efficient action Of the fire depart
ment, would have spread further de-
struction among the crowded homes
on the east side. A high wind was
blowing over the city from the west
At the time of the fire and had the
two houses which burned been at
the extreme western end of the
group Of dwellings on lower Holt
street near Third, probably nothing
would have prevented the other
houses in the vicinity from catching
fire.
At 2:30 yesterday afternoon, Mrs.
Young Byrd left her home at 249
Holt 10 walk to the corner grocery.
In the house at the time she left
were her two small sons, Detroit,

others assisting her, but the heat of
the fire drove the rescuers back and
they had to stand by and watch
home, children and belongings be
come the prey Of hungry flames.
BY the time the fire department
arrived on the scene the flimsv ca
bin was too far gone to be saved
and firemcn fought desperately to
prevent the fire spreading to other
buildings in the vicinity. The home
Of Mercedes J. Romero, ad dioining
the Byrd home was guttcd by the
fire with nothing remaining this
morning but the outside walls. al!
the household effects and perso,al
belongings having been destroyed.
Examination of the premises after
the blaze had been finally exiting
uishcd shows that one burner Of an
oil stove in the small kitchen was
turned on. the other two being
closed. While one of the neighbors
stated that she was positive there
was no fire in this stove at the
time, officials of the fire depart.
ment are inclined 10 believe that
this on" burner had been lighted
and was the cause Of the blaze. A
further examination was to be made
today.
The bodies Of the two children
are now at Lemons funeral par

he was disappointed.
Now, it wasn't altogether the smart
ness of Jimmy the Flying Squirrel that
kept him out of those traps. The fact
Is, he didn't go near them. He didn't
need to. He came over there for corn
and he got plenty of corn in the other
end Of the crib, where the traps could
not be set. SO he didn't need to wan
der around and he didn't wander
around. As a rule, he didn't stay in
the corncrib very long. You see, Jimmy
IS fond of other food besides corn. Also,
he likes his exercise, even in the cold
weather. So he would come over, get
what corn he wanted and return to the
Green Forest. He didn't know anything
about Farmer Browns Boy and, Of
course, he didn't care anything about
him.
Finally, Farmer Browns Boy gave it
up. He had ruefully to admit that he
