The Granton Volunteer Fire Department was kept busy last Monday evening with calls in the country. First a bad chimney fire was brought under control at the Rudolph Sternitzky home on Route 1, Granton. They had just returned when a garage fire at Harry Kuehn's, R. 2, Granton, called them out again about 10:30 p.m. However, the fire was beyond control, so the garage burned to the ground, but other buildings were protected by the firemen.
