There was a real thunder storm in the north part of the county Friday, cracks like the shot of a cannon. All farmers are praying for just ten days of nice dry weather. If their prayers are answered, the harvesting in Golden Valley county will be com- pleted, and in "time for school opening, too, which Is September 11th. A near fatal accident occurred at the Rathbun farm Tuesday after- noon, when Vivian got the smart (?) idea of sticking a cat taft into gas and lighting ~t. The cat tail got too hot and Vivian dropped it in the weeds, which ignited. Dennis tried in his small way to help put the fire out, and in doing so his clothes caught fire. Vivian and Tommy had the presence of mind to roll Dennis on the ground, thereby extinguishing the fire. Dennis was taken to the Beach hospital and his burns dressed. His right leg was burned from ankle to knee, right arm from elbow to shoulder, back, back of neck, right ear and right side of face. Dennis is recovering as fast as can be ex- pected, but will remain in the hos- pital until the last of this coming week. Please, kids, leave all gas~ alone. Bfllie Allen were visitors at the Webb Allen home Sunday, as were Mrs. Loren Rilea and son David. Walter is able to step around fairly lively considering what little time it's been since his operation. "Bet- ter take it easy, Uncle Walt." We were lucky that the wind was In our favor Friday about noon, or there would have been a real prairie fire on section one in Delhi towmship. Charles and John C. Rathbun were hauling from the south field and they looked back and saw the fire. John ran to the fire while Charles raced the team home and got old coats and the saddle horse and raced back. When they saw they were unable to con- quer the fire alone, John Clair went for help on horseback and charles fought on alone until his mother arrived to help. Together they managed to have the fire out befOre help arrived, and help was cer- tainly on the way, as the alarm was sent over the west country telephone line and all were coming to help. Mr. Youells was good enough to stop them at his place, so as to save them all an unneces- sary trip, but we thank you one and all for responding to the alarm, for if the wind had come up in a hurry we'd have needed you. All~ burned matches should be broken in two and put in a pocket, not ~rown on the ground. F, where I sit : How Different Will be Post-war Homes?
