Three Vinita Children Are Burned to Death


    VINITA, Dec. 15.—Three children burned to death Tuesday in a fire that destroyed a two-room frame house on the outskirts of the city.
    Their mother, Mrs. Willie Parker, said the house burst suddenly into flames while she was visiting a neighbor. She raced home, but was unable to save the children. The victims were Wilma Laverne, 5 years old, Joseph, 3 years old, and William 11 months old.
