eseLe; HOLIDAY SEASON
The holiday season is again with
us and unless so different to past
seasons there will be many casual-
ties to mark ,the event of holiday -
making. The summer, resorts and
other places of amusement will be
crowded as usual, and those in at-
tenelance will indulge in boating,
canoeing, swimming and other aqua-
tic sports. Then -there will be the
fellow who will rock the boat, or
change positions in the boat, or go
far out Into the lake to show how
brave he is, or do some other tool-
ardy stunt 'just to be a smart Alex.
t is from these the toll of casuities
follow. No less than twenty-one
victims of drownings occurred in the
vicinity of London during the past
two weeks and it is safe to say
that associated With these little or
no precautions would be taken and
probably there would be a great
deal of careleseness. Would it not
be well for- those at the water's
edge -wherever they may be -to
observe a note of warning and take
every precaution when indulging in
pastimes in which danger lurks and
calamity is likely to ensue. When
death conies in this way the shock
is always the most severe and the
grimness all the' more terrible.
Again we sae; take warning.
Mr: James Handford
journey took a 'full day. His first
impression of London was that it
was a vast cedar swamp with a few
clearings here and there. His father
owned the first two -wheeled cart
seen in this district and although a
clumsy affair, it was considered a
wonderful vehicle and was frequent-
ly borrowed by the neighbors who,
of course, were not very numerous
in those day.'
' Mr. Handford was born and lived
near Centralia, and moved to Exeter
a few years ago. He has a sister
living 'in Winnipeg three years his
senior and he smiles when people
talk or hardship to -day compared to
what he and his family saw in. the
good old days. One of his chief
hobbies is horses. He enjoys horse-
racing keenly, and is a regular vis-
itor at the Toronto Fair. In his
younger days he was engaged in buy-
ing horses, and has made frequent
trips to the -West -where he success-
fully introduced some of the finest
strains of Ontario -bred horses.
He declares that although he has
travelled fairly widely that there is
no part of the North American con-
tinent to equal Huron County and
especially the southern portion. of. it.

The following letter is from Mrs.
Wm. H. Wood, of Santa Barbara,
Cal., who recently passed through
the earthquake when a portion of
the city wee destroyed:
. Santa Barbara, Cal., July 7th
We have just received our Exeter
paper and note the account of the
Santa Barbara quake which has been
the first here to do -Any damage in
113 years. We are thankful to
Providence for sparing our lives and
our' homes which are still habitable,
although many were not so fortun-
ate. It surely was some jerks but
fortunately there were only a very
few deaths -13 in all and these
were in hotels or large public build-
ings which collapsed. Vincent Wood's
garage, which was well built being
steel reinforced, stood up fine. The
brick chimney from the large fire-
place and some plastering fell as
did many brick chimneys through -
opt theecity. We have nwo houses
and both are 0. K. except that a
brick chimney above the roof of one
of them fell. It was fortunate that
the quake occurred in the early
morning and that people were not
in the stores or streets and also that
the schools were closed for vacation:
Vincent Wood's garage is now
open and doing business. He also
has the Caddilac agency and the
building stands across the street
