FIRE WRECKS
CLAYTON FARM
Two Companies Battle 3-Iour
Blaze Which Gusts Fam
lily of Seven
SUSPECT GAS LEAK

A family of seven was made
homeless when an explosion and
fire destroyed the two-story house
in which they lived at 1890 pm.
Tuesday. The occupants of the
house were Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas
Emerson and their five children,
aged six months to five years.
The explosion could be heard for
more than mile and the house
burst into flames from all angles.
It is believed by Fire Chief j..
George Knots, of the Clayton
Fire Company, that it was caused
by escaping gas which was used
for cooking and heating. The
house was completely demolished
and the contents were burned. The
loss is estimated at $4,000, par
TALLY covered by insurance. Lo-
Gated on the old Nickerson farm,
it is owned by Adelbert Wright.
AS firemen from the Clayton Fire
Company, assisted by the Citizens
Hose Company, battled the blaze,
they feared for the safety of the
family, but it was learned later
that the occupants were away
from home. Mr.. Emerson was To-
Gated at the home of an uncle
and explained that his wife and
children were visiting her parents
in Frederick. Relatives will give
them temporary shelter and the
Red Cross disaster chairman, Gin
ton Robertson, will provide the es-
sentials needed until the commun-
ity comes to the aid of the fam
lily Forty volunteer firemen from
the two companies were at the
scene for more than three hours.

A spectacular and exciting lee
ture demonstration on reptiles of
North America was presented by
Jack Raymon, field lecturer for
the world-renowned Ross Allen
Reptile Institute in Silver Springs,
Florida, at a high school assem-
bly, held Monday afternoon at
Smyrna High School. After CIV
ing facts and figures, and telling
of misconceptions about snakes,
and showing snake hooks and
other equipment for catching
them, he showed articles, such as
billfolds, belts, and handbags made
of reptile skins. He said that there
are 2,400 kinds of snakes in the
world, of which 250 are poison
Gus, and that there are 235 kinds
in the United States, of which
only six are dangerous. Among
the interesting exhibits was skin
of the largest RATHER ever caught
in Florida which was Z feet, 4
inches long. Meanwhile, as back
drop to the lecturer, were six
locked boxes of specimens cover
ed with colorful Indian rugs. In
turn he handled the specimens
from the boxes, including black,
red rat snake, king snake, water
snakes and Indigo snakes. They
were beautifully marked and in
excellent condition. He proved
them harmless and explained that
they are not Shiny to the touch
are deaf and the tongue is used
to catch heat waves when they
search for food. Judy Loder, high
school sophomore, showed remark
able courage, when despite being
emotionally disturbed and afraid,
was pursuaded by the lecturer to
touch the large Indigo snake. She
received an ovation by the audi
ence of high school students at
the close of the demonstration.

FOR SERVICE
Mrs. Kenneth MihilIs Award
ed Gold Pin for 100000
Fund Raising Effort
FORMER N. Y. RESIDENT

Mrs. Kenneth Mihills has re-
ceived a gold and blue service pin
as tribute to her efforts in rails
ing 100000 for the Schoharie
County Hospital in New York
State which is located at Coble-
skill, N. Y. Mrs. Mihills and her
family moved to Smyrna from
Cobleskill in January, 1857. Mr..
Mihills is production coordinator
of Wilson Refrigeration, Inc. and
before coming to Smyrna had
been associated with Tyler Fix
ture Corporation for "a years. The
women of the auxiliary to the
hospital were instrumental in the
raising of the 100000 which were
subscribed by citizens of the coun-
ty. The county had received a
100000 grant for the hospital
which was needed to give service
within an eighty-mile radius. The
auxiliary raised the funds to COM
plete the large modern hospital.
Mrs. Mihills was honored also for
her services as supervisor of sew
ing done by volunteers at the hos
pital, which included the making
of draperies, pillows, linens, and
screens. She designed and made
head bands for nurses aides and
worked in the snack bar. The
pin recognizes her enormous eff
forts and the fact that she served
more hours than any volunteer.
Since coming to Smyrna Mrs. Mi
hills has taken an active part in
church and club work, and other
community interests, and the
force of her personality and eff
forts for the community are being
felt in an increasing degree.
