Breakin out from a cause un- known in the home of Lou Menette, the fire gained rapid headway and was not subdued until about ive o'clock. *The fire spread from ome house to another and was making towards the centre of the town be- fore the firefighters could lay a line of hose from the Fraser Dam Construction camp, a quarter of a mile away. The losses in the fire were: house owned by Lou Menet'e, where the fire started; pool room, owned by Sandy Lidenion; boarding house owned by Willie: Massicotte; barber shop owned by George Auger; gen- eral store, pool room, houses ana garage owned by Oscar Lafreniere; pool room, owned by Charles Ouil- bault: store and boarding house owned by Tony Quastiny; shoe re- pair shop, owned by Mike Rossi. A touring car owned by G. T. Mou- gan stored in the garage of Lou Menette, was also destroyed. It is not known if Insurance was carried by any of (he loosers. The only buildings saved in the path of the fire were a store owned by W. R. Irvin, the Banque Nationdle and a small barn. All oi ine buildings destroyed were of frame comstrivetion covered with tar-paper, and fell easy prev to the flames. The village consists ol avout 38 houscs und 4 lew stores, No one was injujred bui approxi- matelv 100 men emp'oved at the construction camp in connection with the hydro electric plant being constructed there, lost all their be- fiopeines in ihe boarding houses. LARGE CROWDS AT NEW MARTIN THEATRE Judging from the crowds which are patronizing the New Martin Theatre these days, It looks as though the management would lave to invest in some S., R. O. signs! There was scarcely a seat to be had at 8 o'clock last night when the feature picture, "The Wolf Hunt- ers" was being shown. The plot, though of 'the usual Curwood type, differs in several respects from the general run of "Mounted Police" yarns, We must not tell our read- ers just where these differences are; they will find it more interesting to discover them for themselves. The caste is true to type, with its stern, hard-featured "Mounties" of the tried and true 'get you® man' variety--only in this case it was "get your girl, dead or alive", and as luck (or the scenario writer) would have it, the Mountie happen- ed to be in love with the girl, whom he thought was a murderess--tough nroposition, what?? Alan Roscoe as Steve Drew of the R.M.P., has just the right fade for the part, and does his bit very eonvineingly; Minetaka, the sup- posed murderess, is played by Vir- zinia Brown Faire, (the longest name in screendom) with all the nerve and abandon of a real French halfbreed. There were a couple of old friends ing to see again. Mildred Harris, in the caste, whom fit was interest- whom gnome will remember as an ex-wife of Charlie "Chaplin, has a minor part which does not demand- too much in the way of acting. David Torrence is also there, Some will recall him as the backwoods lover 'n "Mantrap" with Clara Bow. The comedy star is famous Jack Duffy, the very young old man, whose antics have made millions roar with laughter. You will be tickled to death with 'Chicken Feathers'! The second chapter of "Blake of Scotland Yard" was followed with breathless interest, and was just as full of thrills as the first chapter which was shown last week. There are several new developments which we must not even hint at--bug do not miss any of these chapters, as sach one brings 'to light some clue which lerds onwards towards the tinal. thrilling climax. CLERIC'S NOVEL INSURANCE CLAIM London, Oct. 14--*Over-preaching" 1s the latest form of "accident" cover- ed by insurance in Americal The story is told in the "Insurance World" of a clergyman who is stated to have "over- -preached" while deliver- ing a sermon. The term does. not in» ply that the reverend gentleman was 80 long-winded as to be determined to his congregation, but rather that he himself suffered damage 'during the delivery of his sermon. Having "overpreached" himself: in this sense, he applied to the State In- dustrial 'Accident Commission for com- pensation for injury. He declared that he had strained a muscle while gesticulating during the delivery of his sermon, and that the. injury necessitated an operation. He is seeking reimbursement for doctors 'expense an loss of time dur- ing recuperation. "This is the first application," adds fhe "Tribune," "made by a Church §mploye since it was decided by the ustrial Accident Commission a year Ind that such workers are eligible for compensation in case of accidents' " "Radio!

To test the lights on your car place the car on a level space 25 feet from a wall or screen. Mark a horizontal line on the wall the same height from the ground as the centre of the lamps on your car." Under no circumstances should this line, which is called the Lamp Level Line, be rhore than 42 inches from the ground. With lamps having a screw adjustment turn the screw one way or another until the horizontal beam on the wall from each lamp is as narrow as possible. (Lens need not be removed.) To focus bulbs in lamps without outside screw, adjusting remove the lens and ing lg lin ime Terror of the Highways - " - The motor car with glaring headlights is a danger to its own driver and a terror to others on the highway. Drivers moving in the opposite direction are deprived of sight to guide their cars. A good garage mechanic can focus headlights so that they do not glare. Drivers can do it themselves by following printed instructions. The Department of Highways will mail you without charge complete . instructions. Test your headlights often to be assured they do not glare. You are responsible. Lamps are designed for the roadway and not the other driver's eyes or the tree tops.
