Last Thursday Night.
EVEty AN EDITOR MAY
EAT A CHICKEN DINNER
Intended for the Richest Man in. the
World and Live Through it-—Anyway, a Presidential Candidate
Should Go Slow on Such Rich Foods.*
T'he '.argia and substantial iartn, residence* of Mi", anid Mrs. Arthur Heininger, three rallies east of SaMme oa
the townlims road, tugetnar with its-
entire contenits, .was destroyed hy fire
at 11.-00 o'clock *ast lihnr.day nignt-.
Mr. and Mrs. Heininger, after an
early supper," Had motored to Ann Ar-
ibor to spend the evading and om re^-tltoe. burning  embers' and heat .away
' turning, v-'hian  near the Alber homff '
disaovered a hazy .light ib the
tion of their heme, .and at firs
posed it to be thejnoon, but a
f anther on decides! it must be
as they could distinguish a moiLi-g
blaze in one of thia upper windows
which had not yet eaten its way
through to the outside- They spe-sded
up and* soon learned it to he tluir
home. As they rushed Unto the yard
Arthur jumped out of tiie unto, pausing a moment to decide hiis first movement, realizing he must act quiek'y
and in the most laldv-aKi-Ageaus spot.
Then -seeing that that the flames had
not gained the frojit roams, made a
rush for a front win do v,* which he
broke and'.tried to enter, *bat he wa
almost insfentily r early uverecme with
smoke and sa.s and reilizLid thai a
further attempt -youM be very hazardous and imprudent. He saw a r,.-Biking chair whie'h he grabbed and puK-
ed through the open window, but it
was impossible to -do or save more, for
by tha1; time the broken! window had
given dreuft and the. flames had filled
tne entire front rooms,   Danger and
: petal surrouided him on all sides and
he -then- eou'd cnly devote his *. t'-e, ■.-
tion to the* outside, buildings and
proparty,
i In the meantime Mrs. Heininger
haid speedily driven th? car to the
home of Reuben Feldkamp to give the
alarm, (their own -phone being beyond
control)   and-  the  iFe*dkamp   family
' worked vigorous^ to aro~sa neighbors who, at thiat 'hoar, were sto-p'ni
Roundly; also called up Satin-s residents.
Quite .a crowd'"was soon a-Jom the
ground, and wliile they cpuld So nothing toward saving the house "or (contents, they found an active work necessary in saving the barn and other
property. . Fortunate!"y, w£at little
breeze .there was, eamo from the
southwest' ciarryiiig so.no  portion  of
Cm the farm building*, yet there
.is work for 'ft' to ti*ke care oif the

. When it comes to inaking "Si few
million of automobiles and imciident-
ally becoming the richest man' iai the
world, evew outdistancing that long
distance grabber of thei almighty dollar, old John D. himself, Henry Fold
has everything baaked off the map
that has ever occurred on the pilanet
Bairib. Howeveir, when it comes to
getting chicken - dinruers and getting
'em first, eveni Henry gets outd's' an<v
ed. By a peculiar circumstance it did
not happen to be a Methodist -parson
that beaft Henry to it, and from now
on the country editor will lay first
claim to being on deck when there is
chicken dinner in sight.
It happened this way.    It was the
■day of the big Michigan-Marine foot-
i ball game at Ann Ai bar.   Along abou:
11:00 o'clock in comes a call to the
, Saline Tavern to have a chicken din,-
■ ner for ai party of six, without, how-
I ever, mentioning who  the party ccn-
Isisted   of.    It   was,   however,   Henry

;Editor Stanley C. Stone of the Hudson Post-Gazette accompanied by Mrs.
Stone   and  Missess  Harriett   "Wilcox
and      Catherine     McEachern,     al*=o
bound for   Ann   Arbir   and the big
game.   "With, the   true   instinct of a
lean and hungry c^umltry editor he had
smelleid that good chicken dinner ont
before   he   had  been  in   Saline five
minutes.    Anyway, Editor Stone and
party did justice to ths fried chicken
dinner reserved for the party of six,,
including   the   riohieist   man   in   the
world, and   when   they   got   through
with it, it was plain to be seen that
Henry was going to miss one bet and
