While the balloting for the offices was in progress a false alarm was sounded. Considerable rivalry was displayed in the election and it has been charged that the false alarm was turned in by one of the factions seeking control of the organization. Early yesterday morning, however, the newly elected officers combined with the defeated candidates to fight a fire which totally destroyed the home of Joseph Price on Main street, Swoyerville. Mr. Price's property was insured to the extent of $4,000.

The origin of the fire is unknown. This was the fire at the Price home within twenty-four hours. The building caught fire on Tuesday afternoon when a stove exploded while the members of the family were out. Neighbors turned in an alarm and a group of fire fighters headed by Chief Kirby and Assistant Chief Wheeler quickly extinguished the flames and only slight damage was caused, We do not have all the new books published, but we have the best.
