When asked by a Reeve if he said
$200, Mr. Patterson said that amount
but would leave it with Council to
set the salary. •
Reeve Douglas: "If you say that
amount, council won't pay you any-
more."
Clerk Holman: "Mr. Patterson
came to report on roads. He is en-
tirely out of order in being allowed
to make a speech in supoprt of his
application. It is unfair to have any
applicant come up and make a
speech. There are other applicants
in this room." Mr. Patterson said
he intended putting in a written ap-
plication.
The pay sheets of the Standing
Committees asked for by Reeve
Haacke on Wednesday, were sub-
mitted by Warden Ballantyne as
follows: Old Age Pensions, $740.40;
Good Roads, $418.13; Children's

OWN FRACTURED LEG
Dr. Margaret Strang Savage, the
"little doctor" of the northern part
of the Peace River district, has ad-
ded to her fame as a person of in-
genuity and rare capabilities. She
broke her leg and set it herself.
Word of the accident and the clev-
er way in which Dr. Savage minis-
tered to herself has just been receiv-
ed by Rev. James MacKay, D.D., of
New St. James' Presbyterian Church,
London, in a letter from one of the
settlers, of Dixonville, Alta.
In an isolated district, too far from
hospital for -emergency cases which
requite immediate attention, Dr. Sav-
age has perforated operations on oth-
er people at her northern post. This
is the first time that she has had to
use her skill on herself.
The second woman graduate of the
Medica,. School of the University of
Western Ontario, Dr, Savage, former-
ly Margaret Strang, h been serv-
ing under the Presbyterian Church
at Dixonville for several years, where
she is not only doctor, but relief o

bout 40, were guests last Thursday
night of Lucknow I.0.0.1'. Lodge,

WINGHAM: For (the past two
months, under the direction of C. B.
Armitage, there have been rehearsals
for the play, 'A. Bold Front," which
was presented for the first time in
the town hall Thursday evening, to
an audience of over 400. The play
is presented under the auspices of
the Winghatn Chamber of Commerce,
in aid of the G -Ray fund, for the lo-
cal hospital, and was repeated Fri.
day. It is hoped the proceeds will be
suffieient to reduce the balance
standing against the X -Ray to a-
round $400. Early in the fall a sil-
ver fox fur was presented by the
DuVal fox farm, for this fund, and
for which tickets were sold on, which
amounted to'almost 5150. The lucky
ticket was drawn on Thursday: even-
ing, little Ann VanWyck made the
draw on the stage, the winner being
Capt. W. J. Adams of town.
