"Doc" Ruhl. Boardwalk druggist. drove from Pottstown, Pc., to Ocean City in slightly more than three hours. No arguments were heard at the emergency hospital In regard to the merits of prohibition. The first thing the M. D.'e shoved under the nose of an exhausted or Injured fireman as they were brought in was a shot of liquor. It is a good thing that this fact wasn't generally known or many, of the spectators might have col-

lapsed.

A high truck was kept busy hauling gasoline and oil to the various apparatus in the reeort. A number of garden hoses were resurrected from their winter quartern and used to sprinkle fiomes. It helped in preventing the blaze from spreading. Several roal.s on Anbury Avemu- between Eighth and. Ninth Street caught fire but were extinguished before serious damage resulted. In the midst of the fire some reader who was acquainted with this reporter rushed up to yours truly and said, “thank firi company for saving my house.”' We forgot the name of the par- 1 tlcular company, but we will; thank them all. sincerely. i If as many spectators are at-^ traded by the Hallowe'en carnl- j vat as the fire It will be a whopping success. When the gasoline tanks in the rear of the Haines home exploded somebody declared It was a gas main. The spectators moved withouf the encourage-, ment of the traffic officers. Harry Oonver assisted Dr.' Florence Haines and Lane Haines iu saving equipment valued at set era! thousand dollars. He was struck In the mouih with a flying spark which left a burn resembling a giant fever blister. Many valuable.-, which cannot be replaced were lost when the Haines home was destroyed. Dt. Haines and his wife had gathered many antiques and curios. An ancient and valuable grandfather's clock was among them.

is no respecter of persons or places. It swoops down when it is least expected and levels properties that often represent the savings of a life-time - - or several life-times. Its menace is forever present, seeking what it may devour. No person’s property is safe, no matter where located. It Was Ocean City on Tuesday In this great resort, within two hours, property valued at $2,000,000 was reduced to smoldering ruins. The loss of this property probably was covered by insurance, placed in a large number of different companies of great financial strength individually and collectively. The insurance adjusters were on the ground within twenty-four hours after the first alarm was sounded, and settlements will be quickly made to those owners who were foresighted enough to have ample protection against the unseen red menace, which is ev r present everywhere. From the mass of charred ruins will rise better and larger buildings, and a better and safer Ocean City - - largely paid for by the insurance companies. But It May Be YOU Tomorrow and, if it is, what will the story be? Do you carry insurance which will enable you to calmly regard the work of the all-consuming devourer? Will you have the shield of a Fire Insurance Policy of sufficient size to guarantee you full restitution for the damage sustained? If the answer is not YES to each of the above thoughts, call me AT ONCE and let me place a policy that will really PROTECT you. Now is the time - - tomorrow might be a day of vain regrets if you do not follow that impulse AT ONCE. Through many years of specializing exclusively in insurance, I have established an unbroken record of having compensated hundreds of policy holders for losses, great and small. Let me serve YOU.
