On Monday a meeting of all those interested in curling was held in the Munshaw House and the formation of a curling rink Company was pro- ceeded wth. Mr. J. 0. Dargavel was elected President, George McTavish Treas., and a committee composed of Messrs. W. Akitt, G. Brackenbury. J. McMillan and C. N. Richardson was appointed. Plans have been secured for a rink 163x30 feet, approximately the same size as the Markdale rink. There will be a recreation room 30x17, and an ice surface 143x30, which allows for two games to be played at the same time. Several sites have been investigated and it has finally been narrowed down to a situation in Me- morial Park, immediately in the rear of F. G. Karstedt's store. The fi- nancing of the proposition has just about been completed with over 2000 subscribed and only about $300 still to be secured. The curling game was received with enthusiasm when it was instal- led here last winter, when about 20 members joined up when the club was formed with G. B. Welton as President. All playing was done on the side sheet of ice in the skating rink, hut it was not satisfactory, as only one sheet of ice was available. The price for erecting the building has been secured but the building contract has not yet been closed. It is expected that construction will be commenced at on^e, so that the curling fans will have an ice surface in plenty of time.

MORWOOD Flesherton - Ont. An Heroic Rescue i Master Morris Armstrong, son of Rev. A. E. Armstrong, performed an ' act of heroism Monday evening that should be recognized by the : proper authorities. Young Morris saved another lad from death by ' drowning at Meaford harbor. Gordon i R".r.dle, 10-year-old grandson of Mr. Harvey Hel-strop, was the boy res- ; cued. About 6 o'cloock in the evening he was playing on the barge which had ' brought lumbev here for the Seaman Kent Co. He jumped from the barge ! to the. dock, tripped and fell into the water between the barge and the pier. Without a moment's resita- tion Morris Armstrong, fully dressed, plunged in after his companion. He held him until the ship's captain, at- tracted by the shouts, pulled them both out. Young Handle was uncon- scious a few minute-s, but a little work brought him to. He was taken to his grandfather's home by one of the ship's crew and is little the worse for hi-s thrilling experience. The act of life saving by Morris Armstrong will no doubt be properly recognized. Meaford Mirror. [Note Morris is a brother of Mr. George Armstrong, who is employed in Mr. F. H. W. Hickling's store and a nephew of Mrs. Hickling. He is to be congratulated upon the presence of mind which promoted him to act so quickly in a time of extreme need.] Free Flowing Fertilizers - It's here at last! . . .
