FIRE DEPARTMENT MAKES TWO RUNS

The fire department made two runs the past week, the first at one o’clock the morning of December 24, to put out a fire in the 1938 Oldsmobile coach parked at Paul’s Shell station-and owned by Mr. Hobart Kilbury. At 11:30 Monday morning they were called to the Louis Schoonveld farm southwest of town when the three room-house, occupied by Mr. and Mrs. John Berry caught fire from the' beating stove. It was put out before much damage was done.
