HOT WAVE SET RECORD
This year’s July hot wave set ah
all-time heat record locally. The peak
was reached on Friday, July 10th,
when the mercury officially soared
to 100.5 degrees. For six days from
Wednesday to Monday, it hovered
around the? 100 inark and did not
drop below 98 which created another
new mark as far back as official re
cords show. ■. *
It was seven' weeks yesterday
since this locality has had a good
rain. On June third, < % of ah .inch>
of rain fell, wnich a week later was
followed by a light shower of % of
an inch. Since Jthen, in the past six
weeks there has been nothing more
than .two or three sun showers, that
resulted in scarcely enough precipi
tation to be measurable.
Pastures are burned up and bat
crops are short. Generally there was

OBITUARY
■Thursday about one o’clock, in the
dry , grass farm, of Mrs. Peter Tor
rance. The ■'blaze was fanned by a.
strong westerly breeze and licker!
up the dry pasture land in spite of
the efforts of a, rapidly gathering
band of fire fighters, many of whom
arrived at the scene after a fire
alarm had been sounded in the vil
lage. ,
. The blaze swept westward, set fire
of a. rail fence, leaped the roadway
(known as Torrance'’s sideroad), and
set ablaze the fence and grass in-the
adjoining field. This is a 50-acre
grass farm owned by Harry Tor
rance and rented by W. E. Hender
son, In the centre of the field , is a
frame barn filled with hay, and im
plements owned by Frank Graham
and which building was in the path
of. the blaze. The spread southward
toward Mrs. Torrance’s building was
more easily controlled. . ,
A swampy part to the eas|, aided
the fire fighters, armed with branch
es and wet bags to finally control
the fire after it, had left a blackened
-swath over an, area conservatively
estimated at ten acres. The afternoon
train coming to Lucknow stopped
and supplied water, . w hile a gang
^worked ceaselessly in carrying water
from the creek, up the steep hill;,
over 'which the flames were sweep-
ing__ _______________________ __ . ■:
On Monday of this-week, at pre
cisely the same hour, another out
break occurred on the Harry Tqi-
rapce farm at the north .east corner
of the field and . fanned by a north
wind this time, was sweeping south
ward again endangering Frank Gra
ham’s barn of hay and implements
.„>Th0 blaze started on the railway
bank- and burned a few ' rods of
storm fence along the track.; The
fence checked the spread of the
blaze for a time and fire fighters,
again summoned by a fire alarm,
confined the blaze to an area of less
than an acre of pasture land.
Last Thursday afternoon; a second
alarm of the day was sounded w’hen
a grass fire broke out, near the ropd.
on the’Button farm at the north of
the village, adjoining Philip t Stew
art’s property. It was quickly con-
dangerbus proportions.

Emberlin's Bam—Orign Of Blaze
Undetermined
Fire that broke out about two a.m.
last Wednesday morning destroyed
the trim little barn owned by Fred
Emberlin and which is situate^ at
the south of the village, near Joynt’s
evaporator. Five pigs,. 16 young hens
: and six or seven tons of new hay
Were also burned. The loss is partial
ly covered by insurance and Fred is
considering plans to commence re
building. The frame work was saved
on the arrival of the Fire Brigade
and this will t be used ’« building the
new barn. *_ .
. .The cause of the outbreak is un
known* although the. grass around
the barn was burned and the fire
appeared to have started at the bot
tom. which leads the owner to sur
mise that r the blaze may have been
started by a , cigarette tossed . care
lessly* away. /' ;., '
The fire was discovered by-Mr. and
Mrs. Harold Johnston, who; live just
across thU road • and they aroused
Mr. Emberlin; but by that time it
I waS! impossible to get near the build
ing and within 15 minutes the spec

The most important thing to re

When driving, in mountainous or

in the midst of a twelve-day heat ‘George Hodgins of Wood- .

Maybe you can imagine what down-: Swetown Winnipeg was like. , And yet, JJ11?
>we enjoyed every minute; of it, even . attended the Fol- .
when We sat up in bed at night, in lywmS the ceremony a buffet e luh-
a smothering atmosphere, to fan was served by , six girl friends
ourselves. And this was the place, ® >-Late^
we were told, on the way out .byVVinnipegersr ‘‘where you could sleep Gntano. For k”de
at night”. This heat wave was diff-^™sea pink crepe ensemble, blue
erent though, it didn’t cool off in the' velvef pnaf Mn* a"'1

East tpe,. maybe as hot as in the
West, but I doubt it.
The trip out over the C. N. R. most
northerly line, takes you through a
continual expanse, of rock, bush and
hundreds of picturesque . lakes, bro
ken occasionally by a town or vil
lage, which you reach with expec
tancy to find a cluster Or scattera-
tion of one-storey frame houses,
mostly unpainted and ii roughly put
together] At many points the “whole
town” appear* to meet the train and
among this mixture of nationalities
are said to .be found an interesting
and hospitable people. . .
This trip took us through country
where bush fires, were numerous and
on our return our train-. struck a
forest patrol hand car on its way to
a bush fire. The six men on ,the car
narrowly escaped death by leaping
from the. car just before the surprise
crash came. ,Upon arriving in /Winnipeg" the
publisher spent the latter part of
the week attending the sessions of
the Canadian Weekly Newspaper As
sociation Convention, and listening
in on an instructive, exchange of
ideas, reports and suggestions, all
pertaining1 to common problems in the
publishing business; . Sessions were
presided over by the outgoing pres
ident. Charles Barbour of Chilliwack,
B. C., who was foreman of the Luck
now Sentinel for thr< years, before
leaving for theJTWe^ in 1903. At a
noon-dav luncheon^ we had the plea
sure of oeingfat the same table with
an interesting associate, who had
coffie all the wtfy from “New-Fouhd-

pronounced he told us. there being
no emphasis on any one syllable.
Following a delightful week spent
.with relatives in Winnipeg we left
with' regret last Friday evening by
a special boat train for .Port Arthur
where we« boarded the palatial lake
steamer, the Hamohic, -and after a
very pleasant cruise: of more than a
day and a half, arrived at Point

motoring home from there.
From when we first sought infor
