I Methodist Church Has
Narrowly Escapes Burning
Ibe Methodist church had a close
call from being destroyed by fire
Sunday morning. The sexton bad
made fire in the stoves and at B=3o
was ringiuK.the bell calling the
congregation to Sunday School.
At the same time the east roof of
the building was in tlames and the
same time .the fire whistle was
canning with the church belt*
Considerable time was loss in
getting the buse truck to the file
as there was uo gasoline in the
truck’s tank aud an auto had to
be commandeered to Haul it, The
hose Was attached to the fire plug
toe low pressure from the power
house deluded in getting the stream
into t'lut. It seemed like provi
dence was with the church, there
was no breeze stirriug and the
flames made slow headway. It was
a narti fight however tv save the
edifice. The vocational war stu
dents tought tike they were going
alter the Germans aud to them
great credit is due.
The roof of the .building is so
badly damaged that probably a
complete new roof will have to be
pnl on aud the carpet and furni
ture were badly damaged by water
with which the interior ot the build*
tug was Hooded, The loss is ooyer
eu by iusurauce.
The building was erected in 1882
aud has hud several narrow escapes
from fire. Several years ago the
roof caught in the same manner
but the fiames were extinguished*
before much damage was done.
Another time the tall suire was
-truck bv lightning, set on fire and
adly demolished,
