Fire onMain Street opperKing-Roya- l Fire of unknown origin broke out in the Royal Candy Company at 4:30 Wednesday morning aud be-fore it was brought under control, the building was completely gutted. The fire spread to the Copper Klug and destroyed the roof of this build-ing The Are was discovered at exact-ly 4:30 by Night Police William Mayne, who turned in the fire alarm. The entire apparatus of both departments responded to the call and In less than 15 minutes chemicals and water hose were playing on the blaze. The buildings were both of frame construction with one roof covering both build-ings and the fire easily spread to the attic over the Copper King. Apparently the fire started in the kitchen of the candy company. It has not Iwen officially determined Just how the fire started. Mr. Pet-er ritchlos, owner of the building is away In Nevada, nnd bad not leen reached at the time of writing. It is presumed the building will lie reconst ructed. xne vuiqier iving, owned by Mr. William Jones, located on the eor-- ner of Main Street and Carr Fork, was occupied by Harry's Lunch, owned by Mr. Harry Garvin, a pool hall and cigar and soft drink stand oiwrated by Mr. Jones. Wednesday IMr. Jones stated his building would be reconstructed. Loss was partly covered by insurance. Two men were painfully but not dangerously Injured during the fire. "Hop" Lee, member of Company No. 1, was struck In the knee while working on a ladder and Lloyd Bird received a nasty cut on the wrist from broken glass. The prompt and efficient manner in which the firemen conducted the fight was the subject of much comment by those who wit-nessed the Maze. Led by Chief Wll-for- d H. Harris, the work of gaining control of the fire was promptly ac-complished. The fact that they kept the fire confined within the walls of the building perhaps saved buildings, especially the two story frame structure on the south. , This is the first fire of any con-- . sequence here for almost a year. j Deposits; Withdrawals !

Wtfe the depreaspd revenues t wil bp Impossible to maintain preesent school efficiency and standards, thoy say, Jf ndd'tlunql funds are not provided.

Some of this work is now un-der way, Electricity Relieves In Home Drudgery Protesting that "the low value set upon women power In rural dis-tricts has always irked me," Mrs. Charles J. Sewell, director of home and community service of the Amer-ican Farm Bureau Federation, urg-es farm bureaus, and particularly farm women, to cooperate with elec-tric central station companies in furthering rural electrification. Her plea was made before a meeting of the Illinois Farmers' In-stitute, held recently. She painted a picture of farm life brightened when electricity relieves much of the present drudgery. ; "The word has gone out among farm women," she said, "that it on-ly costs a nickel now for enough en-ergy to milk ten cows, or to separ-ate 1,400 pounds of milk, or to churn 20 pounds of butter, or to sharpen an ax on the grindstone six times." The nickel spent in power for the household will work equal wondeers, she said.

For ye.ars(, Instead of guarding our citi-zenship, we have ben giving this great privilege heedlessly-careless-ly- ." Robe Carl White, Assistant Secretary of .Labor, stated recently In the United States Daily. He con-tinued ! "In my judgment one of the great needs for the protection of our country Is to make more stringent our naturalization requirements.
