became shorthanded iu their out-
door service he volunteered to work
as a brakeman for a time. Ile had

occupied with hie ditties he was
crushed between a movingcar., and a
post. He was removed to the hos-
pital and everything possible done
for his relief. It was thoughts that;
he would recover and being quite
conscious he would not allow word
to be sent to his own people just at
first, The following NLondaa night,
however, he began' to sink and, pass-
ed away early Tuesday morning. The;
news of his death cams as a distinct
shock to his parents and friends, •
Mr. Rutledge left Wednesday for

ENCOURAGING HOG RAISING,
The manager of The Maisons Bank,
Mr. H. R. Sharp, and Mr. 'T, Mason,
who assisted him, lied a busy morn-
ing on Saturday last when tinily -
two young pigs were given out to the
members of The Molsons Bank Pig
Club. It would be hard to say which
were the snore excited, the children
or the pigs. The Bank is supplying
the pigs to the children at cost and
will buy; them back about October at
the'. market price. Several prizes
will be given then as a special re-
ward. The Bank is to be commended
for doing their bit to increase pro-
duction. Another and the final sup-
ply of pigs will be given out next
Saturday.
STARTS NEXT WEEK.
It is expected that the Daylight
Saving 13111 will go into effect on
Monday next. The bill is now before
the Senate,
A similar bill has been 111 operation
in the United States since the be:
ginning of April and is also in op-
eration in various of the European
countries. There has been some op-
position to the bill in Canada but it
has not been very strenuous and it is
thought that it will work out well
here as it has everywhere else it hes
been tried. Tire only difference it
will make will be . that townspeople
as well as farine1's will rise earlier
and retire earlier during the summer
season and thus make greater use of
the daylight hours.
T.L,P.A. GOING FARMING,
Mr. George LIolland has veep gen-
erously offered ton acres of his farm,
just south of town, if any of the
Patriotic societies lioulti undertake
to cultivate it and thus aid in great-
er production. The Y, L, P. A„
with characteristic energy, has un-
dertaken the job. and plans axe being
made now to get the land under
seed, The president of the Auxil-
iary is these days receiving a lot of
advice from fanners and Frear-£arnters
as to the best crop to sow, As flax
is so much needed for the manufac-
ture of aeroplanes and -the Govern-
ment is urging the production of it
the probability is that a port of the
lana wilt be sown to flax.. But what-
ever the girls undertake to do they
will no doubt carry successfully to a
finish'.
