TRUCK AFIRE A SECOND TIME
WITHIN THE PAST YEAR
Evidently that truck of Elwood Mar-
tin, North Barbara street, dairymen
is a Jonah. It caught fire twice with-
in a year and we hope that old
Dutch version, “wos tzwet sich, dos
drit sich”, but you would say, what
is seconds will be thirds, does not
prove true in this particular case.
Sunday morning while Jack Ben-
nett (he’s Elwood’s right hand man)
was working about the truck it
burst into flames about the hood.
Jack quickly extinguished the fire
and the damage was slight. A short
circuit caused it.
Nearly a year ago several children
set the truck afire in the garage. At
that time there was considerable
damage.
