Harry F. Goeringer plans to re-
build the planing mill on the form-
sr William Payne Farm, Demunds
road, which was razed in a $50,000
fire Monday morning.
Five minutes after the Borough
siren sounded the alarm at 10:30
A. M. flames burst through the
roof of the mill and the building
was doomed,
The 100 x 50 foot two story
structure contained on the second
floor a large quantity of finished
woodwork, doors, window frames,
panelling, custom-built moldings
and decorative items in addition
to stock of dressed white pine. The
stock as well as the building, the
planing mill, a tractor, and a
sander were a total loss. James
Besecker, fire chief, first on the
scene, estimates the loss as near
$50,000.
According to Mr, Besecker, thé
planer, powersd by a gasoline en-
gine, backfired, and the gasoling
tank exploded, showering a pile
of loose sawdust with blazing fuel.
A towering blaze, uncontrollable
from the first instant, ignited the
second floor with its inflammable
contents. The two men operating
the planer, Clinton Sayre and
David Eckert, made their escape
without personal injury, but with-
out a chance to rescue their tools.

THE POST, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1950
Mill;
teers appearing within a matter
of minutes, stretched five lines of
hose. With unlimited water avail-
able from the creek and an engine
capable of pumping 600 gallons
per minute, the structure was de-
luged with water, but with no
effect except to confine the blaze
and prevent its spread to nearby
buildings. A concrete block gar-
age thirty feet away was badly
scorched within seconds of the ex-
plosion, but not otherwise dam-
aged.
Kunkle and Shavertown units
arrived fifteen minutes after the
Dallas Company and cooperated in
fighting the blaze.
The Dallas Company poured
water on the debris for three hours,
then with danger of fire to other
buildings over, allowed it to burn
itself out. An auxiliary pumper was
left behind as a precautionary
measure when the fire engines left,
remaining until 4 P. M.

Barbara Malkemes
Decorates Windows
Barbara Jane Malkemes, daugh-
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Mal-
kemes, sixteen years old and in
the junior year at Kingston Town-
sh.p High School, is working up
what promises to be a lucrative
as well as novel business in holi-
day window decorating.
Last year, at the suggestion of
the George Parkers who operate
the Texaco service station in Sha-
vertown, she tried her hand at de-
corating their windows, and was so
successful that this year she has
more orders than she can comfor-
tably fill in her leisure time.
Using a paper pattern fixed to
the outside of the large plate glass
window with scotch tape for the
larger objects in the decoration,
and to properly compose the pic-
ture, she paints from the inside
with temper, a type of show-card
color that washes off read.ly.
This year she has already deco-
rated windows for the Forty-Fort
Dairy Store, Ike Brace’s Lunch
room in Shavertown, windows in
dome of John Bauer and has or-
ders ahead for Donahue’s Restau-
rant, Dallas, and Gosart’s Grocery
store, to name but a few.
Barbara hopes to become a com-
nercial artist upon completion of
aer high school course. She has
Seen interested in drawing ever
since she could hold a pencil.
