Girl Injured
On Vacation
The sympathy of the
village is extended to Mrs. Tat-
low, recently of Lucan, whose
little daughter, Linda was so
badly hurt in a motor accident
at Calamity Corners last Sun
day. Linda was was on her way
to Lucan to spend her Easter
vacation with her grandmother.
The car, driven by Mr. Lloyd
Haskett was badly wrecked
when, to avoid hitting a car
which cut in, in front of him,
Mr. Haskett drove into the
ditch. Linda was taken to St.
Joesph’s hospital where xrays
showed a broken jaw. She also
lost several teeth. A hole in her
face required several stitches.
One strange coincidence was
that Lloyd’s cousin, Mrs. J.
'Graham and her husband on
their way home to Chatham
from Lucan, should be passing
Calamity Corners just at the
time of the accident and were
able to lend a helping hand.
Mrs. Graham accompanied Linda
to the hospital.

service of the Women’s Mission
ary Society, the. Birr auxiliary

land” illustrated with colour

While some thousands
lars were spent last year
grounds of the Community Cen
tre preparatory to making it
suitable for hardball, softball,
horse racing, etc., the Control
Board thought it advisable to go
ahead this year with artificial
ice. These other sports have not
been lost sight of. This year
they are lipping to lay out the
ball diamond and to get the
race track in shape to jog horses
on. In the above decisions the
Control Board were unanimous.
There is a small balance ow
ing on the building and more
money is needed to complete the
payment on what has been done
on the grounds but the Board
are hoping that with the grant
which the Government gives for
athletic fields and with the pay
ment of pledges which were
made for the building this de
ficit will be nearly wiped out.
