B. I-laugh, who is a nephew of H. B. Bingham, accomplished quite a feat last week when he paddled to Belle Erwart, and then not satis- ed with that as a record, paddled back the next day. The big ball tournament schedmled for next Wednesday has been post- poned indefinitely. Ivy and Allis- ton were unable to come and so the idea was dropped. Port McNico1 were returned their $25 deposit fee and it is doubtful whether the Port and Barrie will clash again this sea- son. Barrie is now assured of a good supply of water. On Wednesday morning about 11 o'clock the second well was tapped after the pipe had been forced down 148 feet. This well ows at about the same rate as the one tapped a week ago and fur- ther helps to solve the water short- age. Lu Luz: 1u\vu nun on Ltuesuay, Dept. 4.

She had gone with Mr. Henry Dunsmore. while her hus- band started to walk and was pick- ed up by Mr. Elmer Caldwell. Com- ing home ;\Ir. H. Dunsmore had let her out at their gate. She went in- side the gate and had gone about 40 feet up the lane when she came back to wait for her husband, who was coming with Mr. Cald-well. She saw the car stop directly opposite the gate on the west side of the road, and then start up again. She saw the .\IcKarrow car coming down rods away. It was making an aw- ful noise and going at a high .rate of speed. She wvatched the Mc- Karrow car and saw it meet Cald- well s car at the blacksmith shop, 72 feet south of the gate. She next. heard a scream and knew her hus- hand was struck. The car did not stop till it went half way`to the next gate. She saw an object go 'up in the air. She went out and .fonnd Mr. Caldwell lifting her hus-t -band. He was on the west side of the road. Mr. l\icI\'arrow was com- `in: up to them. He went back and l>rou_:ht a nurse who was in the car with him. Her husband was taken to the hospital, where he died about 4 o'clock the next morning. When she saw the Mcliarrow car first .\Irs. Dunsmore would say it was go-' inc about 50 miles an hour. Wit- ness said she had her son drive at I _..._, `. . . . . . -.

If it is to he of any value as a day set apart there should be some impression left. Children. especially, should be taught civic pride, taught to do their part in making the town attractive. They should be taught that they are lacking in pride when they throw papers, peeliugs, etc., on the streets. when they neglect an opportunity to render any slight. assistance to a visitor in town, when they answer rudely a question asked on the streets. The children of to-day will be the governing citizens of to- morrow and the future welfare of the town depends very largely on the cultivation of the spirit of civic pride to-day. -.

At the opening ceremonies six hundred persons were present. On Monday evening, July 30, the Rev. E. J. Devine, S.J., of Montreal, author of the Lives of the Canadian Blartyrs," lectured t.o a couple of hundred people on the tragedy of Huronia. Among the clergy present were Fathers Doyle and .\luckle, of Vic- toria Harbor, Brunel1e.and .\Ic- Namara of Penetanguishene, Mes- sier S.J. of Sudbury, Keenan S.J., and Bouvrette S.J. of Wauibaushene. Having within his reach documents not easily accessible. the lecturer gave many details about the lives and sufferings of the Iroquois vic- tims which deeply interested his audience. His vivid word pictures of the tortures undergone by the Jesuits, Breubeuf and Lalemont, made a deep impression. Tr I : nnf annoy-ullv 1.-nnuvn Haul oh. 3113. J. JJ. L;B.lCll8.'W.
