DECATUR, INDIANA Repair Work Started Havre, France.

The second fire broke out last night and required several hours to subdue. The salons and other parts of the ship were reduced to a mass of charred ruins. The experts who hastened to the liner aftdr the first fire were forced to abandon hope of recondirtoning the vessel or immediate service. Meanwhile a police inquiry has been instructed to determine cause of the fire. The first theory, that the fire was caused by a short circuit in one of the cabins, has been abandoned. It was suggested by some tliat the conflagration may have been the work of incendiarists.

Sheridan Road was soon filled with pedestii ins, speculating on whether they were witnessing a ledge-strolling marathon, a sleep walker of just another publicity stunt. Theater employes set up a step ladder that hardly leached above the heads of the crowd. An usher mounted to the top and stretched his arms toward the girl, who continued to walk back and forth. “Please come down", ho implored. The girl shook her head smilingly ami produced a cigarette and a match. She lilted her heal to get a light and lost her balance. Women screamed and turned their eyes. Men rushed to the spot where she would tall. The promenade!’, however, seized a handy flagpole and resumed her stroll. By the time she finished tier third cigarette, Firemen arived’ and swung up an extension ladder. Tfie stioller offered no resistance when a fireman reached her. in fact, she snuggled into his arms and, put otie arm around his neck. Once down she sneaked away through the crowd, unidentified. Everyone except her rescuer wondered what it was all aibout. He said she was drunk.

Keep up the Payment of Your Christmas Club — I ... — At this time of the year there seems to he a tendency towards laxity of keeping up payments on Christmas Savings Clubs. Perhaps that is due to the extra money that is taken along for xacation trips. But it is essen i tial that your payments be kept to date in order that you receive full interest at the end of the vear. The many good uses from v hich you will enjoy your ( hristmas money are probabl.v planned already. The best waj to assure complete enjoyment of this money is to have your payments made to date or in advance. Then when your ' check is sent to you, the interest added will be our reward lor your diligence in savings. Payment number 38 is due this week. Look at your Club > book. If you are behind, now is the time to catch up to date. Letting it go for a few more weeks only makes it harder to complete payments before num- ! ber 50 rolls along. • i Old Adams County Bank ■ ——
