ENDS BUS RUN ACCIDENT FREE If the Ripley District High School students were late getting home on the bus on Monday, there was good reason for it. Monday marked the last trip for Jack Powers before he turns over his buses to Lloyd Wylds. Reason for the tardiness on Monday was due to the fact that Mr. Powers was driving with special care to avoid any type of a minor mishap which might mar his perfect record of driv­ ing the school bus for the past five years without scratching a fender or bruising a pupil. —Kincardine News. rK f l I I H I I H I I H I i n i l M l i n i l H I i H I M I I I I I I I I I i l H I M I I I B I I H I I M l I B t weekly or published (2) $100 for a complete set of editions of The Canadian Free Press weekly for any 1855 month from January to April, inclusive.
