FIRE THRÉATENS REHDER HOUSE ONj BEECH AVENUE Passersby Notify Residents - Little Damage Done Due To Prompt Action With Garden Rose A grate fire almost becamne a great calamiity Sunday afternoon when sparks created by it ignited the roof af C. E. Rehder's home on Beech Avenue. Fortunately, the blaze was brought under contro] with water from a garden hose before firemen arrived. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Ellis, Mrs. Rehder's sister, had just arrived froim Toronto and a fire had been lighted in the grate to warm them up a little. Suddenly, an uniden- tified couple walked by the out- side af the house and saw flames shootmng from. the roof. They nati- fied the residents who soon sent in an alarm and attached the gar- den hase which poured enaugh water on the high roof ta extim- guisis the flames. By the time firemen arrived the blaze was practically out, and as there was no sign af fire an the inside af the house, they came ta the conclusion that sparks had caused the fire. Mr. Rehder was flot at hame at' the tirne of the fire.

Carnival Plans Near Completion. The average man has a wrong idea ai what rubber is, stated Joe O'Neill at the final meeting ai the season af the Lons Club. The average man's opinion o» rubber, began Mr.. O'Neill, is tbat it is same sort ai black matenial they put an the autside af a tire, samething red in the inside' to ionm the tube which keeps the air in, and samething an the end ai a lead pencil ta erace your mis- takes. This opinion is brought on through uni amiliarity with the product, and thus one gains an entirely wrong conception. Rubber in itself has actually only one use. That is for crepe soles. Rubber campounds are the things that are important. The Stary af this product has a very mnteresting history, which dates back ta the tume af Christophr Columbus. In 1492 when Columbus landed on the islands ai the West Indies, he iound the natives using sanie Sort ai waterproof bits af cloth- ingan playing with balla that bounced high into the air. This was the white mian's first cannec'- tion with rubber. About 1736 there was a French expedition ta Brazil an sanie other type ai, work. Oùe ai the men happened ta notice that the natives were getting sanie juice tram a tree and drying it became a waterproof coat.* Strangely enough, the rub- ber tree was not exploited for number af years. It was not until the tume of, Hanicock, Mr. O'Neill went-an, 1i England around 1820 that rubber showed any sign ai becoming a Productive industry. By getting this raw rubber, hé made a sort ai covering for shoes, and event- ually invented several jother uses for the sanie type ai matenial. At that tixne there was a man in1 Scotland by the name ai Mac-1 Intosh, Who had an his handsa a large quantity ai by praduct which1 he was unable ta- dispose ai in1 the market. He heard about Han-9 cock using a new type ai product,E and immediately he came ta Eng- land.When hese wo me lcnm sare Ift Out on't beliorev i tr (Continued on page 10) and see ion yourself.
