Considerable excitement was ocaes-
ioned in town on Saturday when Mr.

tion a man's overcoat was found and
papers in the pocket identified it
as belonging to Mr. D. Fulton, imp-
Iement agent of Clinton. A search
was at once begun for the missing
man, Chief Wheatly being in the
meantime notified. After a -fruitless
search had gone on for some time it
was discovered, that Mr. Fulton was
safe at home. It appeared that he
had attempted to drive across the
river to see some stock which he had
pastured on the other side and had
inadvertently struck a swimming hole,
which is about the only deep spot in
the vicinity, and horse, buggy and
driver were quickly submerged. Mr.
Fulton cannot swim but he managed
to scramble to a place of safety and
•considering himself powerless to as-
sist his horse he went home and
changed his clothing before making
an effort to remove his property from
the river. In the meantime the ec-
eid'ent was discovered and hence the
hue and cry.

LISTEN TO THIS
Because many people do not know
the difference between commetbial
and military explosives', we Iist below
some of those most generally in use
also their principal characteristics
and uses,
Commercial Explosives
Dynamist* is essentially a commer-
cialpeace-time explosive and finds
its greatest usefulness in blasting
rock formations in mines and road
construction work. While it can be
detonated safetly at a distance by ex-
perts using a length of safety fuse
and blasting cap or an electric de-
tonator, it cannot be used in a gun
barrel because its velocity of deton-
ation is too great. It would blow the
gun to bits and kill the gun crew.
Black Powder is tt}ag� oldest explos-
ive. It has a low oiler of explosion
and has now been largely superseded(
by dynamite. It has few uses today
as a propellant and, as a blasting ag-
ent, is used only inhere relatively -
slow explosive effects are desired, It
is interesting to recall that it wan
black powder which aided in the lay-
ing of our railways through the
Rookies and that today it is used in
the safety fuse which is inserted in
the detonator that causes dynamite
to explode.
Military Explosives
Cordite is the propellant chsjtge
used, in the breech of a gun to hurl
the shell through the air. ° It burns
without smoke at a moderately low
speed, setting up uniformly increas-
ing pressure which makes it an ef-
fective and safe propellant.
TNT (trinitrotoluol) is used in the
bursting charge in a shell. It will
withstand the shock of the cordite
charge in the gun barrel and explodes
when set off by the percussion eap
or time fuse in the nose of the shell.
-CANADIAN
Canadian 00 Companies, Limited, is rightly called
'the All -Canadian Company" because over 98% of
all its outstanding stock is owned by residents of
Canada ... all its directors are Canadians :.. its
snanagement is wholly Canadian!
We're proud of the title "All Canadian" and proud,
too, of the famous products made by this Company.

ion, so when you're driving look for the sign of the
