COMING DOWN LIGHT
Councillor Donald Ferguson has
reeovoeed from a back injury je-
eeived in a fall from a ladder at his
home, and which fortunately had not
more serious results.
The mishap occurred while Bill
Murdoch was building a chimney at
the Ferguson home, with Dan keep
ing him supplied with brick and mo-
tar; The hod carrier, on this occasion
is no light' weight and the ladder
finally gave under the strain just
as the work was nearly completed.
Dan was coming down “light” at the
time and when five feet from the
ground broke through two of the
rungs and landed heavily on the
ground, wrenching his back which
bothered Mm for a few days.
BUILDING SALT ROAD
EAST OF tHIS VILLAGE
' ■ f. ■'
Work in Building one of Huron
Counties salt roads is progressing
east of Lucknow. The mile and a
quarter stretch immediately east, of
the village was previously improved
in this manner and now work is
being carried op from the vicinity
of Dickie’s HiR,- westward, to com
plete the stretch right into the vil
lage.- -
These roads pack hard and smooth
and the dustless condition of the
road when completed is one of the
pleasing features of such highways.
A stretch of this road immediately
south of the village is being repaired
having been damaged,;; we under
stand, by the cleat wheels of a heavy
engine.
I Another piece of readwork, that
has been underway, is the widening
of the Division line read through the
swamp from the boundary ' to the
12th Concession. The widening here
has been done from fence to fence
eliminating ditches.

also laid 40 niiles of roadbed. Alto

said to be suffering.
Deep water swimmers are not
affected, but rather, the itch seems
to take its toll among those who re

it is caused from animal or plant life
