Do You Want a
Jury To Spend Your
Money For You?
DO YOU have so much trouble figuring out ways of
spending your money that you need a jury to spend
it for you?
A jury can spend it fast. If it determines that
you are liable for injuries to someone, sustained on
your premises, they may give the injured claimant
thousands of your dollars.
Why take any chances. Travelers Comprehensive
Personal Liability insurance protects you against
(1) claims for injuries to the public sustained on
your premises (2) injuries caused by your dog (3)
injuries caused by the recreational or personal acti
vities of you or any member of your family if resi
dents of your household. Also, it provides for the pay
ment of all doctors and hospital bilL, resulting from
injuries sustained by any guest of your family oh
your premises up to a limit of $250, irrespective of
liability. It cost less than five cents a day.

Granton Course
Once again Lucan’s W.l. mem

another outing. This time they
attended a short course at the
Oddfellow's Building in Granton
put on by the Home Economies

leadership of Miss K. Taggart.
The meeting began at 10 a.m.
W.l. members were present from

visitors, made a splendid attend
ance.
The meeting opened with “O

ed a very hearty welcome to all
and introduced the speaker.
Miss Taggart then gave a very
interesting talk on colours, col
our combinations and home de
corating. At 11:30 the audience
was divided into five groups.
Arranged on tables were all
kinds of wall paper, floor cover
ing, drape material and pic
tures. Each group was asked to
decide on any room they wished
and then choose the most suit
able carpet, wallpaper, drapes,
chair coverings, pictures, etc., to
suit that particular room,
At 12 o’clock we stopped for
lunch and a social visit. At 1:30
we finished our rooms. Each in
turn was brought to the front
and displayed on a large easel.
Miss Taggart pointed out all the
good points of each and then
gave many helpful hints where
the colour scheme might be im
proved.
Altogether it was a very
unique and enjoyable outing.
Clandeboye
Home Burns
We are very sorry to
the farm home of Mr.
Harold Hardy, Con. 2
ray township was destroyed by
fire about noon on Friday.
Mrs. Hardy had started a fire
and had only left the house
about tep minutes to go to the
farm where her husband was
working. Neighbours who saw
smoke and flames shooting from
the roof of the house tried to
help them in rain to save
contents.
They concentrated their
forts and were successful
saving the barn.
The loss is only partly cover
ed by insurance. The young
couple were manned and settled
there late in 1950. It is our wish
that Lady Luck will smile on
them and they will soon
new home.
