Slipping off a culvert, near the Raikes homestead, Ridge Road, 01-0. Saturday morning, a sedan contain- ing four people dropped ten feet and landed with wheels in the air. But. for the strength of the sedan top supporting the weight, the occupants would have been badly injured and probably killed. As it was, only one `was hurt and she not very seriously. cor STILL IDEA} IN POLICE COURT Farmer Thought It Looked Like Easy Money; Fined $200. 1 Geo. Ramstead of Toronto, owner of the car, with his wife and Mr. and Mrs. Bowman of the same city, were on their way to visit at John Sut- ton s, Shanty Bay. As they approach- .ed the dip in the road where the culvert is located, Miss Middleton, driving a Ford coupe, neared it from the opposite direction. The road be- ing narrow at this point, both drivers halted to give the other a chance to cross. Then both started simultan~ eously so that they met on the cul- vert." Mr. Ramstead, endeavoring -to give the lady as much room as possible, got too far to the south and the right wheels, striking some soft. earth, slipped off the end of the cu! vert, the car turning turtle ere it hit the bottom. One of the side lights of the top was smashed and in crawling out through `the hole Mrs. -Ramstead cut herself on the glass. Miss Middleton (who is a sis- ter of Mrs. J. B. Holden of Park lands) drove the injured woman in- to town, where her wounds were dressed. It was found necessary to put four stitches in her right arm and three in "the calf of her right leg. The others in the car escaped with a shaking up. ` 7} 1 . cu c. . 1 .1 Considering the tumble it took, the sedan was not badly damaged.

C.~Drury in his address at the ,North Simcoe U.F.0. spicnic, Friday afternoon. Criticism was levelled `at the heads `of those directing the affairs of the ;U.F.0., the U.F.0. Co-Operative Co. [and the Farmers Sun, who, it was charged, by_ interlocking directorates kept control_ within themselves. It ,was plain from Mr. Drury's remarks. that he is of the opinion that the action of the,U.`F.0. leaders in en- `deavoring to force government by occupational groups and in opposing , his plans for broadening out bad llost his government much support in `the urban centres. Mr. Drury enun-' ciated again his ideas for a political gressive ideals, no matter where they; may be found, and declared the timei ripe for such a party in Canada. His remarks were closely followed and generously applauded. Must -Appeal to All Classes I Speaking of the Progressive move-I ment, Mr. Drury said that this pol- itical movement embodies the aims and aspirations of the great mass of, the common people. Every political movement had its start in some de- nite section of the population. For. , example, the Republican party had its origin in the anti-slavery agita- ` tion., This Progressive movement, it! chanced, originated in farmers or-! ganizations. It cannot rest there,a declared the ex-Premier. If based on justice, equity and truth, we have a foundation on which we can appeal ii to all sections, no matter what their, I party embracing all those with pro- |occupation or whether they dwell ini city, town or country. The only way the` Progressive movement can make it headway is to go out and get thati support wherever it is to be found!

Barrie and Parry Sound then made another run, Parry Sound doing it in 21 4/5 seconds and Barrie in 23 4/5 seconds, third place` thus going to Parry Sound. a ` The Main Event The main event was the next fea- ture.
