L. M. CRANDALI SPEAKER AT Y. M. C. A. MEETING Sunday aftermoon L. M. Crandall ad- fressed ome of tho largest groups that have attemnded the series of summer Bunday afternoon discussions at the Young Men's Christian Association. In his talk on Personal Efficiency, Mr. Crandall smphasised the value of a kigh vtandard of religious life . in attaining basiness success. The strongest asset that a young man can have in applying for a new position or in succeeding in the business world or in life is a sound physieal. mental and moral foundation. The Bible was offered as the best, the earliest and yet the most-up-to-date text book for a man training for any branch of the business world and many exam- ples were shown that proved that there is unlimited opportunity for improve- ment and inspiration o even those high 8p in the business world. To be succeestul in business or in Christian works, a man needs to be four-square, . e. he must have ability, religbifity, endurance and action. This was further emphasized by a five-point- #d star representing what a man must do to succrd: Observe, listen, read, think ans discuss, . Foliowing the address a live diseus- sion brought forth many additional facts ts prove further that the greatest eos. sential to personal efficiency i4 a nor- mal, wholesome religious training and exnerience. E. J. Fritz of the association was in charge of the meeting. Mr. Hill led the Froup singing, many of the well known | hymns. Following the meeting a soctal nour_gave opportunity for those present to get acquainted Among the visitors wers Mr. Ward, ohe of the directors of the Newark Y. M. C.

The residence of Ebenezer Learneds 180 Broadway, was badly damaged by fire early Sunday morning and the occu- pants barely escaped with their lives. Mr. and Mrs. Learned and children, who wore forced to leave the house scantily clothed, were assisted down ladders by firemen’ from the porch roof The fire which is believed to have started in the laundry from an electric fatiron, was discovered about o'clock Sunday morging by neighbors and a telephone call was sent into the central station. In the meantime efforts were made to awaken Mr. and Mrs. Learned The auto chemical, deputy chief and Main street company responded to the telephone eall and as saon as the fire- men arrived thef pulled in box 31 lo- cated at the top of the Little Plain, call- ng out additional apparatus Mr. Learned was awakened from a sound sleep and it was with great diffi- culty that he succeeded in getting the children from their rooms. The house was filled with choking blinding smoke and it was found impossible to leave he houss by way of the stairway from the second story. Ladders were ralsed by the firemen and Mr. and Mrs. Learned wers assisted to the ground from the porch roof Two lines. of hose were laid and the BROADWAY RESIDENCE BADLY DAMAGEI] BY FIRE EARLY SUI SUNDAY MORNING fire was squelched in short order. “The fire had it origin in the laundry and as soon as the windows in the launry gave way, a strong draught blew the flames into the kitchen which was badly dam- aged. The kitchen walls were sealed with matchboard [pind with hard wt! finish and _this furnished ready fuel for the flames. Had it not been for the fact that a door leading from the kitchen into a hall was closed the flames would have reached the interior of the residence and would probably have been a total loss. Mr. Learned said Sunday afternoon that his loss will be in the neighborhood of $7,500. There was - practically no water damage, the greater part of the loss being caused by fire and smoke! The smoke completely filled the house. Mr. Learned spoke very highly of the efficient work on the part of the fire department in confining the blaze to the laundry and ‘the kitchen, Mr. Learned sald he believes the firs started from an electric flat iron ‘The iron had been in use Saturday afternoon by a member of the family. It is ot known whether the current was left turned on or whether the button, which turned very easily, was jarred on by a closing door sometime during the day or night.
