The Somerset Journal
The Oldest Democratic Newspaper in the Mountains of Kentucky
Feese & Williams
Somerset, Ky., Friday, January 9, 1920.
Buys Interest in Store. Mrs. J.A. Bolin has
purchased a half interest in the
Live and Let Live Grocery owned by Chas. Candler. She
assumed her duties
January 1st and will charge of the management of the business.
Twenty Years Ago. Mr. L.F. Hubble, the real estate man,
purchased Rockcastle
Springs twenty years ago on the 3rd of January. He has
spent every summer
during that time at the famous resort. Rockcastle Springs
is known the
country over and every year it enjoys a good patronage.
Defective Flues Cause Fires. Many a recent fire in Somerset
has been caused
by defective flues. A little caution might serve a good
purpose and the
Journal wishes to call the attention of property owners to the
importance of
an inspection of their flues in residences and business houses
about twice a
year, and if necessary, do a little "patching up" and
thereby help prevent
many fires that would otherwise, possibly, occur. About
nine o'clock last
Friday night fire was discovered at the residence occupied by the
Rev. Woods,
of color, on Bourne Avenue, and it was detected that a defective
flue was the
cause. The fire department was summoned and with the use of
the chemical
tank on the "Big Red Devil" the house was partly
saved. The fire department
is more efficient now than ever before, with the new fire truck
equipped with
all the modern fire-fighting apparatuses, and headed by the
efficient Chief
Bob Warren, but the property owners should use every means
possible to help
the department prevent as well as extinguish fires. These
firemen endanger
their lives each time they respond to a call and by the proper
precautions on
the part of property owners the calls will diminish. The
chemical tank is a
wonder as a fire fighter. It has been the means of saving
much property loss
since it has been in use in Somerset. On last Thanksgiving
morning when the
Journal office fire occurred, the los and water damage to the
office would
have been double what it was, had it not been for the chemical
tank. Much
credit is due Chief Warren and the fire department for the record
made since
the new truck arrived, and now let every property owner make an
examination
of their flues and do all they can to help the department keep
down the
number of fires during 1920. The Mayor and fire department
think it would be
a wise plan to increase the capacity of the chemical tank on the
fire truck
and this proposition may soon be considered by the new council.
Purchases Half Interest in Real Estate Business. Mr. J.C.
Stallard has
purchased of S.J. Clarkson, a one-half interest in the S.J.
Clarkson Real
Estate business, and will assist Mr. Clarkson in the conducting
of the
business. Both these men are hustlers in the real estate
business and the
outlook for the year 1920 is very good for them.
Nice Gift. Mr. and Mrs. E.R. Tate and son, John Herrin, of
Winchester, Ky.,

Tate received a handsome present from his company, the
Frank A. Menne Candy
Co., a $500.00 check and a nice increase in salary.
Buys Back Old Home Site. Mr. and Mrs. L.H. Hussing have
recently bought back
their old home place on East Mt. Vernon street, and get
possession about the
middle of February. The dwelling on this site has been very

Hussings informed
the Journal that they were delighted to get back home again.

Nor Shall you ever be
As long as life and memory last
We shall remember thee.
