We are cele- brating the 14th anniversary of a day of sadness and a. day of rejoicing. There is one thing that we feel to- day as perhaps never before; that never again will the world be allowed We have heard much as to who won the wax and how it was won. It was won by the loyalty of the British family, all pulling together. of our boys gave lives, while members of the ` man-y returned -. _ maimed and suffering, but that gave ` 1 Canada a place in the world.

Gough, who was lriving a Ford Coupe, was on his way .ome to Barrie when he noticed a Ford coach approaching` from the north. The uncertain manner in ' which the coach was travelling causeu - Gough to get well over on his own side of the road. For no apparent reason the approaching car made right for the coupe, which by this time was three feet over onto the shoulder. A jhead-.-on collision 01- ` lowed. Both cars were badly smash- ed, the engine of the Ford being ` driven back into the driver s seat. _, Officer Thompson, who was on the scene ten minutes after the crash, _ helped to extricate Goug'h from his wrecked car. Although terribly hurt, he was conscious and ,was given medi- _ cal attention by Dr. McCa1lum, 01 , Churchill. Later he was removed in an ambulance to the hospital, where i he was attended by Drs. W. A. Lewis and E. G. Turnbull. On- examination 7 it was found that the injured man had a fracture at the base of the skull and the chest was badly crushed. A . brain specialist was rushed from To- ronto and an operation was perform- ed in an effort to save Go-ug'h s life.
