As it is the damage has been confined to the one 'building, but that is very extensive. At 6 p.m., whan Jeffrey's har- ness factory was closed there ap- peared to be no signs of fire, but within fifteen or twenty minutes of that time, a smart blaze was burning in- the back end of the premises. The fire brigade was called immediately, but although everything was done as well-as it could be done with the 'equip- ment at their disposal, the fire gained considerable headway in 21 | the few minutes that elapsed be-|p.E I fore the water started its work.

Fortunately this prevented, and, the fire brigade deserve every credit for their excellent work in this respect. Yet, in spite of these facts, the harness factory is a complete ruin and the contents are a wreck. Part of the roof and one floor has fallen in, and the back of the building issin very bad shape. The mest unfortunate part of the matter is that a number of men will be thrown out of work tem- rarily, just when orders are inning to come in after a slack summer. The loss is quite heavy, but is well covered by insurance, Beare Bros. Galoge at Uxbridge -De- stroyed by Fire Early Tuesday morping Beare Bros. garage at Uxbridge was totally destroyed by fire.

They have been on- the tramp since the 28th of June, starting from Charlottetown, LE. They are supposed to be at the Pacific Coast by the 30th of March, 1923. They have made a wager that they will* walk the entire distance in the specified time, starting without a eent,and finishing the trip without any money in their possession, The undertaking is a big one, the "hikers" are a rugged look- ing group, and it is probable that they will make good. * To the casual observer, they will have to keep 'moving pretty lively, as four months have gone out of the nine, and they have not nearly accomplished half their journey. The worst of the rdad is ahead of them, as they travel through the northern wastes, the prairies, and the Rocky Mountains. This part of the journey will have to be made under difficult weather conditions. As opposed to this the weather will be gooler and more invigorating. ' Some criticism is made of this trip; but to look at it fairly, one must admit that it is a whole- some bit of sport, requiring cour- age afid endurance of an unusual quality. . As to the cost to the country in voluntary contribu- tions, it is not likely that 'anyone will suffer. All sport is expen- sive, but that is the investment we make in the nation for a more vigorous manhood and woman 00d. : The "hikers" wished to thank 1 Reeve Figary and other citizens for the courteous treatment af- forded them. We wish them good fortune. ave to learn to learn to walk,-- walking will become a lost art, if Henry Ford has his way. MARRIED A quiet wedding was solemn- ized at the P: age, Prince Albert, on October 25th, when Martha tude Everson, daugh- ter of Mr! and Mrs. Wm.

The weeks were filled with interesting sights and incidents and practically free from annoy- ances from accidents more than a little tire trouble occasionally. Hitching up his 1913 Cadillac on a bright morning-in late July Mr. Nott with Mrs. Nott, headed for Eastern Ontario, which they had not visited since their arri- val in Medicine Hat fifteen 'years ago. They motored to Duluth via Winnipeg, covering 1,700 miles in nine and a half days, then went on board the Noronice from Duluth to Windsor, spend- ing 3% days on the boat. From Windsor they drove to Port Perry, spending a couple of weeks visit- ing Oshawa, Picton, Trenton, Belleville, Kingdgon, Gananoque, oh their way to Ottawa and Mon- trea. When eastward bound their record day's trip was 270 miles. If the contract is com- pleted a fine paved road will next year carry motorists from Wind- sor to Montreal, through some of the most delightful scenery of the Dominion. Besides the de- light of renewing old friendships and visiting the old pioneer homes rich in association, Mr. and Mrs. Nott spent two weeks in Toronto at the time of the exhibition. While there Mr. Nott attended the Ontario Funeral Service As- sociation, also the third annuxl Dominion Funeral Service As- sociation, gleaning latest infor- mation of improved methods in his 'profession. The first Do- minion Radio convention was also an attraction, radio enthu- siasts taking foremost place in public attention. From Toronto to Detroit Mr. and Mrs. Nott passed through the magnificent Niagara fruit belt, - where trees and vines were loaded with fruit. Visitors from the cities drove out and picked their own peaches at $1 a bushel. Grapes were selling at 15¢ a basket. Visiting his father at Detroit, where he also saw the State Masonic parade and the Sovereign Grand Lodge I. O. O. F. parade, Mr. Nott pushed on to Lansing and Chicago, visiting Milwaukee and crossed again to St. PAul and Minneapolis, and through Emer- son to Winnipeg. f Everywhere they found the tourist camping grounds made as comfortable and attractive as possible, with every convenience or a stopover and rest. Enter- ing Canadian territory agaid, Mr. Nott wgs struck with the general air of prosperity, con- tentment and abundant harvests, which compared most favorably with conditions over the border. A little fall of snow startled the summer travellers and headed them for Sunny Alberta. The only bad stretch of road lay be- tween Moose Jaw and Swift Current which was freshly grad- ed. Mr. Nott looks for a large tourist invasion next year via Winaiveg to Banff and the coast. Friends of Mrs. Nott were deeply grieved to learn of the sad event which shadowed all the happiness of an- otherwise Sgiish ful trip. While en route her gother's illnes ore the old hom yther had passed away. --Medicine Hat News, Sa Mr. and Mrs. Jessop Nott have |: ott received word of | e inc addition to all .
