John Lindsay Spent a Month Touring Western Canada (By Staff er) Whitby, July' 5.--Rev. John Lindsay, pastor of St. Andrew's Presbyterian church, has returned to Whitby after spending a month's holidays in a tour through West- ern Canada to Vancouver and the Pacific coast. Rev. Mr, Lindsay left Whitby early in June and, ar- riving at Regina, Sask. he attend- ed the .General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in Canada, which was in session for ten days. At the conclusion of these sessions, Rev. Lindsay proceeded to Banff and Lake Louise and from thence to Vancouver, whieh he found to be avery interesting city, British Columbia's charming capital, Vie- toria ;was the next stopping place, the trip across Puget Sound to the beautiful city of Seattle following. Returning to Vancouver, Rev. Lindsay made the return trip through the mountains by the Ket- tle Valley route, and the scenery along this way was so indescribably grand that the observation car was the most popular coach on the whole train. Arriving again at Fort William he took a steamrer and en- joyed two days on the Great Lakes in the trip across Lake Superior, Huron, Georgian Bay to Port Me- Nichol, Rev. Lindsay reached Whitby last Friday night and will have charge of the services in St. Andrew's church next Sunday. -- T DEMAND FOR WHITBY DEBENTCRES r-- oN Sug Reyer) a mand has been shown for a 10 CONFER OVER ATHERLEY BRIDGE Reeve Jackson and County Engineer to Meet Simcoe County Council (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, July 5.--Reeve Albert Jackson and County Engineer D, J.

July 4. For the third time in history man conquered the mighty Naigara to- day, when Jean A. Lyssier, French. Canadian, of Springfield, Mass., went over the Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side, in a specially consructed rubber ball, while a crowd of 150,000 people, lining the river bank on either side, cheer- ed and applauded him. The start was made from Cay- uga Island, about three miles above the falls, at 2.30 o'clock, standard time, and Lussier was rescued from the bridge eddy below the falls at 3.20 o'clock by William ('"Red") Hill, daring rivernian, alone in a rowboat. At first is was feared the giant ball might be carried downstream into the rapids. Lussier plunged ov- er the brink at 3 o'clock. Right Side Up When Hil] reached the ball ft was right side up, and it was a matter of only a few minutes until it was towed to shore and opened. The first to greet Lussier, with a resounding smack on his cheek, was his sister, Madame J. P. Cau- tiere, of Sherbrooke, Que. The only bruises Lussier suffer- ed in his perilous journey were of a minor nature. There was a small mark on his right temple, another on his left shoulder, and a spot on his left shoulder blade, all receiv- ed, he said, in the terrific boune- ing while his strange conveyance was p#ssing through the rapids above the falls.

Asked concerning his sensations while going over the precipice, Lussier said: "I didn't even think, It al] happened too fast." When the giant barrel had been towed to the Canadian shore, fit was a task of great difficulty to cut through the thick rubber until he was extricated, The barrel was made of thick rubber, with thirty-two automonile tires inside, and he was trusses in a sitting position in the interior, He got a shock when two of the tubes burst with a greaf noise dur- ing the journey down stream. The barrel weighed 750 pounds and, with Lussier inside, 900 po «ds. It floated down the river buoyantly and its course was breathlessly fol- lowed by the crowds lining both banks. Thrill for Crowds The crowds got many a thrill as the barrel floated rapidly down stream and after the water below the falls had heen reached the ef- forts of "Red" Hill to get it and row with his great burden in on shore was followed with an inter- est that could almost be Telt, Hill's knowledge of the river stood him in good stead and he took auvan- tage of every current and eddy to get his human freight into safety, The Canadian police would have stopped any attempt to take off from the Canadian side, but the PAY CASH AND PAY LESS AT SIBERRY'S Men's Ties 55¢ 2 for $.100 The new Summer Col- ors in Fancy Club Stripes, Checks and Floral designs.
