CLINTON AND
RCAF FIRE
BRIGADES HELP
Damage estimated at up to
$25,000 was done Monday night
by a quick -breaking fire that
gutted the Baldwin hardware
store in the heart of Soaforth's
business section.
Combined efforts of three fire
brigades brought the fire under
control in about 'en hour of fire-
fighting, and prevented its spread
to adjoining stares and office
buildings.
The fire was discovered less
than half an hour after the hard-
ware store had been locked up
for the night, but in that space
of time had gained such headway
among combustible sections of the
hardware store stock that flames
swept through the basement and
,both of the two ;storeys of the
building. • The walls were left
standing,"but most of the contents
of the building were either burn-
ed or damaged by smoke and

HOW TO BE BORN AGAIN
No one can be saved unless he is born again by
the power of God's Spirit.
CHRIST SAYS: "Ye must be born again or we
cannot see the Kingdom of God."—John 3: 3, 7.
"But as many as received him, to them gave he
powers, to become the Sons of God, even to them that be-
lieve on his name. W.F. ARE BORN AGAIN AS SOON AS
WE RECEIVE CHRIST AS SAVIOUR."
