IIATULKA FAMILY SUFFERS
WHEN HOUSE BURNS DOWN
A defective flue was responsible
for the causing of a fire at the Frank
Matulka home, near Dwight, last
Thursday evening, that resulted in
the complete destruction of the house
r.nd practically all of the contents.
One of the children, in the yard,
rw the flames. Just as they broke
through the rcof and a great effort
T.-as made to check the blaze. The
fire was thought to be under control
cevcral times but would get a new
ctart and finally gained such head
yay that the house wa3 doomed.
There being no telephone in the
house, it wes necessary for some of
the family to run half a mile to a
neighbor to sound, the alarm and help
arrived too late to be of much as
sistance. The Matulkas will rebuild
their horns immediately and they
are emphatic in stating that tele
phone service will be Installed as
scon as possible and kept where it
will be available in case of another
urgent need. Valparaiso Journal.
