MOTOR ACCIDENTS
INCREASE
The record of automblle accidents
in Ontario for lart year have been
.announced. There were 10,484 acci
dents, 560 persons were killed and
3,839 were injured. Accidents in 1935
were greater than in 1934 by 1,203,
the number killed was 48 more and
the injured in 1935 exceeded the in
jured in 1934 by 849.
Despite the fact that the Govern
ment spends a great deal of money
warning motorists to be more careful
also the great amount of publicity
•given this matter by the newspapers
and the radio, accidents continue to
increase, the death list grows and
many more are caused suffering.
The only way that accidents can
be reduced to a minimum is by the
motorists individually making up their
minds to be more careful.
It will be but a short time now un
til traffic on the highways and by
ways will be at the peak and if ac
cidents are to be fewer it is directly
up io the individual mortist.
Do your share this year, avoid mot
or accidents.

Horticulture Premiums
The local Horticulture Society have
announced in this week’s issue their
premium list for this year. Recently
we urged citizens to join this society
and intended to let it go at that—But
when we saw the list of premiums
that the society is offering this year
we could not resist calling the atten
tion of the public to this list that is
on the front page of this issue.
One wonders how the society
•give such fine premiums when
fee is so small ($1.00) but the
is they are and all citizens should
'take advantage of this offer.

Red Cross To The Reserve
The Canadian Red Cross promptly

of the Eastern United, This society
has also had considerable work to do
m the flooded areas of Canada, and I
■so often we look on the work of the !
Red Cross as being confined to war i
periods, but their usefulness in peace ;
time disasters is such that it is only!
■controlled by the limitation of its !
.funds. |
The Red Cross served a most use-!
ful purpose during the war and con
tinues to serve equal as well during
peace times. It is an organization that
deserves much support.

Suggests Lethal Gas
A bill has been introduced into the
House by Dr. J. K. Blair, M.R to
substitute lethal gas for hanging. The
minister of Justice is looking into
this matter. There are several states
that use this method in preference to
the electric chair.
Many have, since this bill has been
introduced, suggested that capital
punishment be done away with al
together and once again this oft dis
cussed question is to the front. We
believe that capital punishment has
its place in protecting society, but
we also believe that when it is nec
essary to take a life a more humane
method should be used than hanging.

Bill Young, junior Marine defence
man, Goderich, set out to test the ice
in the harbor with an axe before Bert
MacDonald had his 500-pound marine
engine dragged across to the shell of
the thirty-foot launch he is building.
“Don’t lose the axe,” was Bill’s last
order as he set out, lustily testing the
thickness of the ice. He was halfway
across when one of his hearty swings
crashed through shell ice. He hung
on to the axe, but the impetus of his
swing was too great. Bill wanted to
let go, but was a split second too late
and he followed the axe right into
the gaping hole.
