A near accident occured on
Post Office Street, Tuesday
about noon when a Reliable
Transfer truck skidded down
hill and into the Variety Thea
tre signboard, knocking it over
onto some children returning
home from school. As far as we
have been able to ascertain the
only thing hurt about the chil
dren was their feelings. The
skidding of the truck was due to
defective gear shift which slip
ped out getting the machine out
of control of the driver.

A fire scare was given the
'own Tuesday morning when the
alarm of fire was given. The
fire was said to be on the street
by the power house but when
the truck got there, there was no
evidence of fire; some one said it
was on Front Street so the truck
was turned about and headed
back to Front Street. When it
got to John Lott's old house a
bit of smoke was seen wisping
its way out of the roof by the
chimney plate. Two or three
dipperfuls of water directed on
the blaze and it was out. The
boys were only given the chance
so limber up their legs in an ef
fort to get a buggy ride on the
new truck.
