MAN KILLED AT WINGHAM
IN LABOR DAY ACCIDENT
acci-
mile
Day.
of a
Mr. Robert Austin, an employee of
the Stove Foundry at Wingham was
fatally injured in an automobile
dent which occurred about a
north of Wingham on Labor
Austin occupied the back seat
car which was being driven by Mr.
Wm. Wilson. They were proceeding
north, and when approaching the turn
in the road near the old brick yard,
the front axle of the car broke, the
fender coining down upon the wheel.
The brakes were applied and the car
came to a sudden stop. It appears
that, on seeing that there was trouble,
Austin jumped to his feet and was
shot out over Wilson’s head and on
to the ground in front of the car. He
alighted on the side of his head sus
taining such an injury that he died
soon after without regaining con
sciousness. He had a shotgun in his
hand, and Wilson received a severe
blow on the head as it passed over
him. Other occupants of the car were
not hurt.
The Lucknow Public School opened
on Tuesday with three teachers in
charge of the Continuation work.
Miss F. E. McLean is again princi
pal and has as assistants in the high
school work, Mr. Malcolm Armstrong
and Miss Gertrude Fowler. Mr. Arm
strong will teach Mathematics and
Science. With the three teachers the
school is able to accommodate more
students in high school work and
there is room for a number more than
have so far enrolled. Families wish
ing accommodation should lose no
time in communicating with Mr. D.
R. Macintosh, Sec’y. of the Board.
The Board feel that they have a
splendid staff and up-to-date equip
ment, so that the high standard of
work established in past years will
be fully maintained. The school had
a splendid record in the last school
year, being well in advance of the
average throughout the province. Of
those who took Middle School work
67% were successful, and of the Low
er School 80%, while | the Entrance
Class ali passed, a large percentage
taking honors. H
The Public School department is
in charge of the same efficient staff
as taught it last year—Miss Mac
Donald, Miss MacCallum, Miss Thom
pson and Miss Murdie.
A threshing of oats which is rare
ly equalled in Ontario was done on
the farm of Albert Cook, two miles
west of Lucknow, on Sept. 1st. The
oats from just 10 acres of land were
run through the machine in two
hours and 15 minutes, and the grain
amounted to 808 bushels by weight,
making nearly 81 bushels to the acre.
As they came from the machine the
oats tested 46 lbs. to the measured
bushel. The threshing was done with
an Ontario Special sparator, in charge
of Wm. Stanley and Robt.
The oats are a mixture of
and 20th Century.

TAX RATE IS 41 MILLS
SCHOOL RATE UP 2 MILLS
and
Restaurants To Be Regulated.—New
Furnaces For The Town Hall
Lucknow’s tax rate will be 41 mills
on the dollar of assessment this year.
This is one mill higher than the rate
for 1922, which was 40. The advance
is accounted for by the requirements
of the School Board which are 14.8
mills as compared with 12.5 last year.
This means that apart from the
school, the rate really is lower than
in 1922. A good school, however, may
well be regarded as in the nature of
an investment which brings substan
tial returns to the village. As com
pared with surrounding towns the
tjyx rate in Lucknow is still low, and
village finances on the whole are
healthy condition.
Other business transacted at
Council meeting Tuesday night
the passing of a by-law regulating
restaurants which give meals. Some
provisions of this by-law are that
restaurants shall close at 12 o’clock
Saturday nights and remain closed
until 7 o’clock Sunday mornings, and
on Sundays they shall be open for the
serving of meals only, and they shall
close at 7.45 Sunday evenings.
The furnace in the Town Hall hav
ing given very poor satisfaction last
winter, the Council is asking for
tenders for the installation of a new
heating plant.
Application having been made for
another pool table license, Council
decided that no more licenses should
