Save Burning Building on
Pennsylvania Farm.
Carlisle, Pa — Forty barrels of fine
elderberry wine proved to be the only
effective fire extinguisher when a fire
on the farm of Gilbert Beetem here
destroyed a barn and outbuildings
valued at $10,000.
When tenants
reached the fire, water was promptly
poured on the burning buildings; but.
although a bucket brigade worked tor-
six hours the buildings were destroyed.
The flames started to Ignite a hand­
some lodge on the farm. The water
had run out. The tenant remembered
a large quantity of wine storeij In the
cellar, and within a few minutes the
bucket brigade was transferring elder­
berry wine to the roof of the threaten­
ed building.
A steady stream of wine was kept
on the building until forty barrels
were exhausted.
The building al­
though badly scorched, was the only
one on the farm saved.

There Is another form of Dutch cab

one verse of any song he pleases, some
well-known chorus being used as a
burden after each versa. When every
person has sung, all sing their respec­
tive songs simultaneously as a grand
finale.

A beautiful introduction in col­

This was the first teature film ever

Considerable expense was un­
