FARM HOME IN EDEN
DESTROYED BY FIRE

Fire destroyed the home and all
household goods on the August Fret
tag farm, three miles southeast of
Franklin in Eden township last week.
The farm is tenanted by William
Pitts.
Mrs. Pitts and her daughter were
out in the yard taking care Of some
washing when they noticed smoke
issuing from the caves of the build
ing. Rushing into the house, they
found the second floor already in
flames.
The Franklin fire department was
called but the house was entirely en-
veloped in flames when it arrived with
chemical tank. There were no
buildings close enough to be threat
ened by the burning home.
Although the fire was discovered
before it had gained the first floor,
the Pitts family was unable to save
the household goods, because the
flames spread so rapidly.
The origin of the fire is unknown,
but it is believed that it started
somewhere in the attic. Part of the
loss is covered by insurance.

A Champion Passes

All horse lovers will regret the un-
timely death Of Phar Lap, great Aus
tralian race horse. Having already
established a remarkable record, he
appeared to be on the threshold Of q
greater one, with good prospects OF
becoming the greatest money winner
Of all time.
Originally purchased by his owner
for $500, his earnings had reached
the sum of s332,250 and only recent
ly he had demonstrated his unusual
ability by winning the Aqua Calienta
handicap in record time, though but a
short time off the boat after a long
sea voyage from Australia.
The motor car has eclipsed the
horse as means Of providing trans
portatlon but man may never escape
the lure and love Of a good horse. Like
the dog, he is securely entrenched in
his human friends esteem.
Not many animals become world
famous. Phar Lap did, because he was
a champion and humanity acquires
deep respect for champion. whether
man or beast. Phar Lap had that rare
combination of phlegmatic DISPOSE
ton and the high courage which has
been bred for generations into the
thoroughbred. With these he pos
sessed speed and the ability to go the
route. When he died, bulletins flashed
in the news offices of the world and
many paused momentarily to pay him
homage
Not all persons have the capacity To
find affection for an animal, but that
is their loss. Those who love their
dog or their horse will view with un-
the unrestrained act OF
Phar Laps trainer in falling, weep
ing on his charges neck, as he lay
dead.
