Nappanee s New Fire Truck Arrives; Given Thorough Try Out Tuesday Afternoon at Geyers Dam

Nappanee’s new Are truck arrived Monday evening from the factory of the Boyer Fire Apparatus company at Logansport and was given a thorough tryout at Geyer’s dam, 4% milea. northeast of Nappanee, Tuesday afternoon. Two lines of hose of 250 feet each in length were attached to the truck and" drawing water -frem a 6-foot lift, with a pressure of 120, pounds at the pump and 73 pounds at the nozzle, 513 gallons of water per.minute was pumped for two hours, with the engine traveling at the rate of 40 miles per hour, and making 1700 revolutions per minute. A one-inch nozzle was used for this test. A test of one-half capacity was made for 30 minutes, when 250 gallons per minute was thrown. For a final test a one-third capacity for thirty minutes was made, when 167 gallons per minute was thrown for 30 minutes, making a total of three hours steady test. The tests were made under the supervision of W. P. McGuire of Indianapolis of the Indiana Underwriters Inspection bureau. The engine showed a good deal of reserve power and a large percent of overage in both pressure and gallons of water thrown. The mtfeblnery was found to be in 'first-class condition after the test and the "truck proved to be more than was expected and l more than was claimed for it. A Fine Apparatus. • The chassis and engine of the truck are from the Studebaker factory at South Bend. The engine is of 75-horse power capacity. The pumping engine is what is known as the Cloverleaf rotary gear pumpThere are two chemical tanks of 35 gallons capacity each, which can be recharged and a constant stream used at a fire if it should be found necessary to do so. The truck is of standard fire fighting equipment. It carries 1,000 feet of hose and has one 40-foot and one 24-foot extension ladder. NOW BHOWING NEW FLORSHEIM OXFORDS For'the man who" cares.

John H. Yoder of Nappanee Meets A Tragic Death Near Lynchbjurg, S. C., Saturday

John H. Hugheg;'lß, son of >lr. and Mrs. Peter 11. Yoder,/of Nappanee, met a shocking death near Lynchburg, South Carolina/ Saturday morning about 9:30, when he was blown to atoms by the premature discharge of sixty pounds of dynamite.

Ten pounds of dynamite and a tin container of caps were leaning against a tree, exposed to the direct rays of the sun. Bringing up another box of dynamite containing fifty pounds, John reached into the cap box to secure caps, and it is thought that the slight friction thus caused, combined with die. intense heat bT lhe sun, caused the highly explosive caps to explode, Igniting the dynamite, which also exploded, blowing his body to bits. Mr. Yoder, the lad’s father, had just left the field to go to Lynchburg. Arriving there he learned of the tragic death of his son and hurried back to the scene of the accident.

John had gone to South Carolina to work for his father the first of April, having had some experience in this line of work, as he worked under father for four months last summer at Crown Point. Mrs. Yoder, his mother, left July 16, to join her husband, and son at Lynchburg, lit-
