doubt. Raymond Springer. Connersville, was given a slight edge because he was the nominee in 1932. Glen Hillis. Kokomo; Elza O. Rogers, Lebanon, former state chairman, and H. H. Evans. Newcastle, state representative, were considered equally strong. George Hill, Michigan City, was expected to receive votes of delegates from his own territory on early ballots but was not expected ever to become a strong threat. Joseph B. Kyle. Gary, a candidate for lieutenant governor, was considered one of the most likely "dark horse" possibilities for the gubernatorial nomination. REV. CARSON TO of the second year at l>agrange he was invited to the Trinity M. E. Cbruch in Ft. Wayne. Two years were spent there and then he was transferred to Portland, where he remained for a iittle over five years before coming to Decatur. The Rev. Carso n s pastorates have been marked by revival meetings wherever he has gone, resulting In the quickening of the spiritual life of the church and in the increasing of the membership. He has likewise been very successful in the payment of church indebtedness, the improvement of church property and the. installation of sound financial organization locally which have enabled the congregations to meet all obligations week by week. So successful in this field has he been that he has been called many times to assist other churches as financial adviser. Both the Rev. and Mrs. Carson have been outstanding in their annual conference as children and young peoples workers. Both have been very active in leadership ■training for church school workers and in Epworth League woik. He is now dean of his section of the Epworth League Institute for the third year and district director of Christian Education. In Adams county he holds 'the office of educational superintendent and is chairman of the Christian education committees of both the Decatur and Adams county ministerial associations, charged with the responsibility of the leadership training schools for church school work ers and the summer vacation church schools for children. The Rev. e.nd Mrs. Carson have four sons. The oldest. is located at Hickory, N. C. John is living in Portland. Robert is in Los Angeles, and Frederick is at home. o—• — fire causes (CONTINUED FROM traded to the spectacular lln as the smoke bellowed from every window of the barber shop and the store Clouds of smoke poured from the west windows of the second floor of the Niblick building almost to the same extent as the east windows.

way down the stairs to the first floor and fresh air. Firemen Complimented Mr. Niblick today congratulated the firemen on their successful efforts in holding the loss to a few thousands of dollars. Under the direction of Fire Chief Charles Robenold the firemen stretched two inch hose lines which poured between 800 and 800 galons of water a minute on the fire. A Siamese joint was fixed on one hose in order tnat two streams of water could be played through the two front windows under the barber shop. A partition in the basement prevented part of the water from the front windows from doing effective good. A basement door at the rear of the barber shop was broken in to permit firemen equipped with gas masks to enter the smoke-filled cellar and play thousands of gal lons of water over the burning sleepers. The force of this column of water drove much of the smoke through the front and kept it from going through the store. The basement under the barber shop is connected by a door to the Niblick and Company basement. Heat is furnished the barber shop. Had not the fire been checked almost immediately it would likely have spread to the Niblick store building. Tho furnace in the Niblick building had been left open for the summer. The draft caused by its chinAey drew the smoke and tire towards it. Although the fire was extinguished in about an hour and a half, it was necessary to leave all of the windows open in the store until 11 o'clock to permit the smoke "to escape.
