LeMars Sentinel, March 8, 1907 SENEY: Mr. Wm. Falk was in town Tuesday and informed us that the Center School house came near being burned down by fire Monday night, but through the promptness of Geo. Falk the building was saved. While going to the school house to start a fire for Miss Adney of LeMars, George noticed a light in the homes and hurrying to the building discovered a fire which had burned a hole in the floor six feet in length and three feet in width. He succeeded in getting the flames out then notified Mr Reintz, one of the school directors. It is supposed the building was set on fire as two boys whose names are familiar to the readers of the Sentinel. They stopped at the home of Mr. Falk Monday night about eight o'clock and inquired the way to Struble but refused to give their names. They no doubt slept in the house over night as one of the windows was broken in through which they gained entrance. The loss is covered by insurance.
