Switzer's bro- thers had a close call last Saturday evening while motoring from God- erich. They met a car driven at a rapid rate of speed with only one light in front and thinking the light was the nearest one to them they gave the car only the pro- per share of the road but the reck- less driver ran into them demolish- ing their car. One brother had his collar bone broken, the other got off with some bruises, etc., while three young men in the back seat escaped unhurt. Judge Jas. A. Prout of Alabama, who attended the re -union of the Prout family at Pt. Huron and who accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Prout of Detroit to Exeter calling on friends in.town and in Usborne, was a pleasant visitor at the Times - Advocate on Tuesday. Mr. Front left Exeter about 45 years ago and very few of those whom he knew at that time are now left. He noted the general prosperous condition of this community and said that for land that had once been a wooded tract, he had never seen anything to surpass this section. The crops, especially the oat crp are better than he had seen anywhere between the Gulf of Mexico and Chicago and between Chicago hand Detroit. The corn is looking fine but is not as good as that grown in the corn belt. HRYSL S I Xi At the of the first history -making year or Chrysler Six—Walter P. Chrysler pledged himself and his organimtion to strive earnestly to keep the Chrysler Six as far ahead of the wasteful and commonplace as it stood at that moment. The new Chrysler Six—atnew and lower prices --is the answer to that promise—the result of engineering and manufacturing ienius whichnever rests satisfied. While the motoring public acclaims the Chry- sler Six as the most phenomenal car over boitr WalterP. Chrysler announces notable improve- ments in quality --of materials, of performance, of craft:mai:whip, of equipment, of design.. , Lr .41 greater Potver---Increased cylinder bore, result - Ing in approximately 10 per cent more torque, giving 70 miles per hour with greaterease and quickness than. ever before. Paster Acce/eration-5 to 25' miles in 7 see6ndso power enough to climb the steepest grades and pull through deepest mud or sand, from refined power plant with a still Larger crankshaft of 50 per cent greater torsional rigidity. Remarkable Fuel Econotny—Carburetioti Inv proved to deliver 24 and. more miles per gallon saf gasoline, notwithstanding increased tSower 1. and faster acceleration. • improved Rear Asde—Ring gears and Pinions are larger; differential carrier heavier to handle increased engine power. Distinctive Color Combinations—Body colors, in Duco, are the most attractive and tasteful ever offered. Chrysler -designed, Pisher.built closed bodies are further reftned; attractively low and gracefully rounded. • Extraordinary Equipment --Chrysler equip. meat is of a quality and completeness rarely found on any car—even the highest priced. It includes Purolator, which filters all dirt from crankcase oil as the motor runs; Watson Stabil- tors, the most efficient and most costly device of its type to absorb the shock of road irregular.. ities; air -cleaner, which removes all road dirt 'and dust from air entering the engine; ther- mostatic control of water heat for most effi.. • dent operation; Chrysler -Lockheed hydraulic • four-wheel brakes which ',provide utmostsafety of Control; Spartan "SOS" electric horn; duco durable body finish; balloon. tires, • Cold words fail to describe this new Chrysler Six—a car so far beyond any comparison with • existing cars !et you must know it personally to understan its unapproachable superiority.

We have one at work in Exeter and two valuable canines have fallen victims to his 'dastardly work. About two weeks ago Rev. A, A. Trumper lost his airedale and this week Mr. F. Triebner lost his fox hound, the se- cond since he has moved to town. The latter hada'been tied up and on- ly been let loose a short time when he came in contact with the poison. The penalty for doy poisoning is a severe one, but nothing would bo too severe for such despicable acts. • 'OE:„L)f • On Saturday afternoon, August 15th there assembled a party at Lakeside lieach, near Port Ruron, consisting of the members of the Prout family of Port Haron,.
