As The News goes to press on Wednesday , afternoon the Canada Flax Mill is burning. The fire started about 4 p.m, and the origin is a 'mys- tery as there was no fire psed-ln she building. It began -in the north end and from the oily nature of the con- tents, .soon spread over the building. The firemen responded at once to the call and soon had three strong streams pouring water into the build- ing, which quelled the flames,; but it is difficult to reach the fire in the flax. Their work has saved the surround- ing buildings also. It is a great loss not only to the company but will throw men out of work for a time. The old building was destroyed four years ago and the new one was equipped with every safety device possible against fire, SCHOOL RE -OPENS.
