First it was reported that the number was 1111 Thompson Street. Upon inquiry, the operator stated the number was 115 and two minutes later added the information that "a small child phoned it in." Finally it was es- tablished that the street was Palm- erston. At the home of Robert Rints, small chilren had been lighting a bonfire. Due to the high wind, the fire threatened to catch a shed at the rear. By the time firemen arrived, the blaze was out. "The kids did it. I gave them some old stuff to put on the fire," a neighbour added. 'Whitby Club Calendar TODAY Peterboro vs. Whitby at town park, 6:30. SUNDAY Silver Tea at home of Mrs. Ed. Hogan, Frenchman's Bay.
