(Associated Press Photo) NEWS O FIRE DESTROYS DOUGLAS TANK, WATER SYSTEM Hand Chemicals and Snow Used in Fighting Blaze —Not Much Loss Fire from an unknown origin reduced to ruins the main tank of the Douglas Water Works thi morning. Flames were first noticed coming from the south end of the tank at 7:30 o'clock by Mrs. J. R. Langseth, who immediately phoned | in the alarm to central. Due to the high wind blowing, the flames quickly extended along' the entire roof and firemen responding had a difficult task before them. A hose line from a salt water con- nection at the ocrner of Fifth and C Streets was laid but due to the elevation of the tank which, would have rendered the pressure more or less ineffective, the water was not turned on. Chief Jensen and a brigade of |loyal volunteers with hand chem- (icals and snow shovels succeeded, |after about two hours hard work lin saving part of the tank which was dismantled to get at all the | fire.

The | author is, by his own confession, | not a philosopher and dmtldrdly‘ he is not at home in the realms| of logic; in spite of this, or per- haps because of it, he succeeds in| making absolutely clear to the | reader those points upon which he has defniite information. The tools witn which he builds! his thesis are entirely sensual. On the one hand, he has the facts of the physical body:—the chicken | heart he has kept alive in alcohcl for fifteen years, the brains he has triphined, the bodily organs he has | grafted from one species to an- other; and, to guide him in his ana- lysis of these factors, the hyper- ensitive fingers of the scientist, to whom the material of life is sacred and in itself immortal. ! On the other hand—and it is this that provides the fascination of the book—he has, not the logical ap- proach from abstract to neighbor- ing abstract of the philosopher, but the equally sensual testimony of the instinct; the emotions, the entire gamut of human nature, as felt by scientist and laborer alik !
