Hundreds Watch Cider
Mill Burn To Ground
Early Sunday Morning

 

Mysterious Ekplosion Hustles Along Complete Ruin of

Reynolds?

Cider Mill—Cause of Blaze Not Deter-

mined—Partly Covered By Insurance—New Mill

To Be Built.

l"

A fire that destroyed the cider mill of Stephen Reynolds in
the Boston Post road early Sunday morning attracted a crowd of
several hundred people. The loss was $6,000.

Something Explodee—Gasollney

How the fire started is a. mystery.
It was discovered by motorists pass-
ing the scene and a. call was sent
into the Central Fire station but
when the firemen arrived the build-
ing was nearly burned to the

r no. It was outside of the tire

clan and there are no hydrants
near it. It was impossible to play
a. stream of water on the fire.

A short time after the fire had

. been underway there was a terrific
explosion which shattered the build-
ing blowing parts of it in all direc-
tions.

An investigation into the explosion
was conducted and it is thought it
was caused by the gasoline engine
that was used to run the machinery

.in the cider mill.

. The explosion shook buildings in
.‘tho vicinity and broke several live
electric light wires. Workmen were
dispatched to the scene by the Con-
necticut Light and Power company
and the wires which Lay across the
load were quickly removed.

Mr. Reynolds' home is a short dis-

tance from the mill and he was

‘--holdlng a. barn dance when his at-

tion was attracted to the fire by

e of the guests. He rushed to

the scene but the 'tire was beyond

7 control by that time.

" He stated that the loss was $5,000
god that it was partially covered by
33,000 inscurance. He intends to
.lerect another mill on the site and
will have it completed by the time

’ .that older making season arrives. .

 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

EXPLOSION

The plate glass, window in the
front of the store of S. chenson,
18 West Washington street, was
shattered and a lady clerk who re-
fused to give her name was slight-
ly burned in an explosion of fire-
works shortly before 11 o'clock last
evening.

The fireworks were on display in
front of the store and it is believed
that one of a number of young men
who were shooting of! fireworks in
front of the store dropped a light-
cd piece of punk or a match into the
fireworks igniting them.

Ex-Detective-Scrgeant John Rob-
erts, now patroling East Norwalk. is

 

relating a story combining both the
Fourth of July motif and a strain
about. muscular strength suddenly
lost by an East Norwslk youth.

h'cstcrdny Ofllccr Ilobcris found
a seemingly husky young man sport-
ing an outlawed blank cartridge gun.
The youth. on being told that it must
be disposed of. elected to throw it
into the waters of the harbor. Tile
water was only a few yards from
the spot. but when he threw the gun
the young man displayed a surpris-
ing lackaf baseball ability. The gun
landed safely on. the beach where it
might be picked up later and the
thrower looked satisfied.

The look changed‘to one of dis-
appointment. however. when he was
ordered to get the gun and try an-
other throw. The second try was
more successful and it landed in the
water with a doleful splash. “Funny
that his throwing arm was so weak."
said Officer Roberts. ”l've seen the
seine boy do much beeiter with a
baseball."

Wantto Reduce? Walk
For 7 Months and See
How You Will Shrink

 

Jeanne Grosche Did And She Knows

 

Miss Jeanne Groiche of the far.
far west blow into Norwalk the
other day with many exciting
than to tell about the trap of
herself and three other girls from
the vicinity of the Golden Gate but
one discovery the travelers made
transcends all others in practical
importance.

These girls have found a cure
for the terrible thing that seems to
come to so many girls and women
as they graduate from that delight-
ful period of youth when sllmiless
is bad without any worry or both-
er.

Nothing is worse than for a girl to
know she is getting fat and nothing
seems more desirable to a woman
who has become fat than to find a
way of reducing. .

The hope of s. return to "that
girlish figure" will lead them on
to all sorts of tortures from star-
vation to hard work. Many of them
will even go without ice cream and
the leading magazines are filled
the leading magazines erye filled
with "treatments" for the plague of
obesity and the remedies proposed
range all the way from wearing a
certain kind of rubber belt to walk-
ing down stairs while standing on
one‘s head.

Imagine the Joy of the Sentinel
reporter then. when he discovered
that an easy and simple plan in.
voiving none of the horrible and
fantastic “cures." as advertised.
had been discovered and might be
told the world without cost to any-
body.

I-iere it is:

You start from California in Do-
cember and walk all the way across
country to Connecticut. taking not
less than seven months for the jour-
ney. and you will, lose at least It
pounds.

And this is no case of "maybe."
Jeanne says she lost. 15 pounds and
she also made affirmation that each
of the other three girls lost‘ some
'Oli’ht but. not quite'as much as

 

she. became. they dida'Lhu’e as

 

much to lose as she did. They didn‘t
come to South Norwalk with Jeanne
but Jeanne is a. truthful girl and
her word can be accepted. Although
she comes from California her real
horns is in Wisconsin and s. Wis-
consin girl never tells a lie.

' Now it four people undergo a cer-
tain test and the reaction is the
same for each of the four. it is safe
to accept. the result as being true
Kenerally. If four girls walking sev-
en months from California to Con-
necticut lose Weight. it is reason.
able to assume that all girls walking
the same distance in the same time
would lose weight.

Why not try it‘.‘

But all this is not what brought
Jeanne and the other girls to Con-
necticut. They are not prospecting
for llthesome and sylphllke figures.
but they are in pursuit. of informa-
tion and experience that will help
them become writers.

They are all students of journal-
ism in California and it“ Mp across
country has been made to bring
them into contact with many peo.
ple and many scenes. They thought
all this would stimulate their im-

aginations and they have found
their' expectations gratified.

They are now on their any to
Maine and will consider ngor
the end of their trip. How t ey will
get back to California to esume

their studies they don't kn w for
certain but they are not lkely to
walk back because walking’ hes so
much time.

The girls have support d them-
selves since leaving Cali min by
selling subscriptions to magazines.
and selling stories to newspapers
and other publications.
