How do you account for the water being of disagreeable taste in some places and not in others? urru, ___ V-:aavAUb That is the mystery, the super- intendent said. ``That's what we are working on. It will be all right in one house and not next door. Naturally you would expect the most complaints to come from the section next. the standpipe but such is not the case. Most of the complaints were from the east and north. There were no complaints from Allandale. U,` .. , _ __-- --...~..uuAv.

We have found the graphite on the bottom, about three and a half inches thick. I think the mildew taste in the water is due to this graphite, which has now been cleaned out.

Hare on Tuesday. The graphite paint with which the interior of the 200,- 000-gallon standpipe was treated two years ago had peeled off and settled ir? the bottom of the tank, three to four inches tiiick. This was cleaned out Monday night and a gradual improve- ment has since been noticeable. Water 100 Per Cent. Pure The Water may taste and smell Ind, but it is absolutely 100 per cent. pure,.

Evidence given at the inquest and at the preliminary trial differed mat- erially on important points, one of which was that E. V. Babcock s car. with which the Logan auto crashed, was not parked at the time, as stated in the Newmarket reports, but was travelling 25 to 30 miles an hour just previous to the crash, although much slower at the time of the actual im- pact owing to the application of brakes. Defence brought out that had it not been for skidding, caused by applying the brakes there might not have been an accident. Defence coun- sel admitted neglect but strenuously argued the absence of wilfulness, which was a big feature in the drop- ping of the major charge. Bled to Death? ``I venture to say if it had not been for a wound received in the forehead caused by a prong of a bridge lamp which she was carrying, Mrs. Logan would be alive today, said Mr. Boys , in summing up. That is the evidence given at the inquest and which is ad- 1 mitted here. But for that there never would have been a death. The car L was a Packard, heavily built and heavily upholstered. The woman bled to death, There was no hemorrhage whatev- er. Death was due to loss of blood and nothing else and the wound was caused by the prong of the bridge lamp. Again I repeat the care which this man exercised. speeding and I would ask that your worship take into consideration the unusual features of the road at this spot. Mrs. Logan's death was a terrible tragedy but it was purely accidental, I submit.

Local traffic officers state if there is any discrimination nhereabouts it is against Canadians and not Ameri- cans. Canadians are supposed to know our laws and for that reason their excuses are not taken so readily. There have been no cases here or U. S. cars being held or nes collected on the roadside. ``I find Americans invariably good drivers but inclined to take liberties, said Chief of Police Stewart. With- out motorcycle equipment it is hard to check up on them. To take their number is useless, unless you com- mandeer a car and chase them, or phone to the next town. This has been done in extreme cases. The great bulk of American motorists, however, are jovial, good-natured people and well-behaved." - American tourists have no com- plaint on the score of enforcement of the Highway Traffic Act insofar as `Barrieis concerned for there has not been one citizen of Uncle Sam's do- main paid a ne this year and only one in county police court.

Finally the cries for help were heard by Reg. Houston and others. At first they thought the noise from the lake was that of merrymakers, but it suddenly dawned on them that someone was in peril. Houston struck out rst in a canoe, but was unable to effect a rescue single-handed. He was followed by Campbell Raikes in 8 rowboat and later Wendell Graham in a motor boat into which the men were nally safely placed. It is un- derstood the companion of McKellar was the man who had sold him the new craft and was giving instructions. The boat has a speed up to forty miles an hour.
