BARN BUNED
Barn, Hen -House and Pig -Pen orz
Robert Harrison's Farm
Destroyed by Fire.
One of the worst 'farm fires that
has occurred in this district in some
time took place on the farm of Rob-
ert Harrison, 6th Concession of >East
Wawanosli, Monday afternoon. The
threshing operations had been going
on all morning and about 1 e'clock a
pile ofstraw alongside the barn un-
expectdly started to blaze and made
such rapid headway that it was im-
possible to save the barn, hen -house,
and pig -pen. It was only with great
difficulty and by the wonderful
work
of the neighbors and others who as-
sisted, that the driving shed and house
were saved as a,high wind was blow-
ing from the southeast toward the
house. The fact that the house had
a metal roof also aided the fighters
in saving it.
As soon as the word spread that
the fire had broken out men from all
over the district rushed to help and
all the threshing operations at Harry
Campbell's ceased so that all could
help fight the fire. The way the men
worked to stop the fire spreading was,
truly heroic, as the heat was terrific.
All the contents of the barn were
destroyed except a little grain and
some hens were burned. The thresh-
ing machine owned by the Westhall
Syndicate, was saved. The sparks
carried a long distance but fortunately
only a pile of rails across the road
were burned.
The buildings on Mr. Harrison's
barn were first class and despite the
fact that he carried insurance his :loss
will be considerable.

from a threshing machine owned by
ohn Boyle. Threshing had only been
started about two hours before and
the entire crop was destroyed, It was
a, spectacular sight, as the fratnewark
till burned away -and left the crop

threshing machine and the farm im-
plements were saved but it; is believed
some hens and pigs were burned,
Thirty-seven young people met in
the School Room for the regular
weekly meeting on Monday evening,
with Miss Johns, vice president, in
charge.
In opening, the hymn "Zion's King . -.
shall reign victorious:' was sung and
The Lord's Prayer was repeated in
unison. Miss Johns told of the cele-
bration of the 130th anniversary of
the. Battle of Trafalgar, as the out-
standing current event of this week.
The "Samaritans" of which Jean
Zurbrigg is Convenor, led in the 'De-
votional Period. The lesson taken
from Matt. 23rd chap., was read by
Wilbur Tiffin. Miss Elda Bennett re-
viewed the second chapter of the ,
study book, the subject of which was
"Intellectual Quest" or "The Search
for Knowledge" and Mr. Anderson led
in prayer.
The "Builders" had charge of the
music and Winnifred McNiven called
on Muriel Williams who favored with
a piano solo.
The program Topic was "Why we
need Missions in the Foreign Fields".
This was taken by the "Tigers", Jack
Herd, the Convenor, told first of ex-
periences in the work of Mr. Ander-
son while he worked on one of the.
Home Mission fields and several
young ladies in costume represented
the Foreign Fields of India, China,
Africa and Trinidad, and told how
missionaries were needed in those
countries.
For the Recreation Period, of
which the "Spartans" had charge, with
William Second as Convenor, :a con-
test was held which showed very
plainly our knowledge or ignorance of
the district surrounding Wingham;
The Friendship - Circle was then
formed, the Vesper hymn "Abide with
Me" sung, and the meeting closed
with the repetition of the hfizpalt
Benediction.
