F. L. Danes, of 224 North Ruby street, found the family bus disinclined to start, Tuesday afternoon, so he tried to warm it up by holding an oil saturated and burning cob under the manifold and close to the carburator. The idea worked. In fact it exceeded all expectations and Mr. Danes was forced to call the fire department to extinguish the resulting blaze that enveloped the engine. When they got the fire out Mr. Dane found all the ignition wiring had been cremated, so he had to walk after all.
