Brandeis Rover Scouts Prevent
Theatre Fire Panic
Prevention of a fire panic at a
children's Christmas Eve entertain-
ment at the Oak Theatre, Brandon,
Man., was credited by Manager D. B.
Roberts to four Rover Scouts whom
he had invited to be present. When
the fire alarm was ,given the Rovers
at once acted to quiet the children,
kept then'i from crowding the aisles,
and marshalled them promptly and
safely to the exits, and out. "The
theatre was cleared in a remarkably
short time," stated Manager Roberts,
'and what might easily have become
a serious panic was completely avoid-
ed." The Rovers were Arthur Wil-
cox, Donald Thompson, Ted Speers
and George Milliken:

Corbett, of Hay Twp, while assisting•
in cutting wood in the bush on his

in carrying him from the bush and
he was brought to the office of Dr.
Fletcher for surgical • treatment. -

HAS CARRIED MAIL P011 NEARLY
25 YEARS ON TFIE SAME
ROUTE
This wintry weather and poor road
conditions in this vicinity makes one
turn their thoughts ` to the faithful
mail carriers who daily make their
trips so those' in rtu'al homes may re-
coive their newspapers and letters.
In thinking of these men we espec-
ially mention William C. Coade, who
for nearly twenty-five years has been
a faithful mail carrier of Rural Route
No. 3. To make his trip each day.
Mr. Coeds has to cover eighteen milts.
In good weather the:daily trip takes
four hours with horse and buggy or
cutter.. He is always in the best` of
spirits and never has a complaint to
make no matter how stormy or cold
the weather is. One ,hundred and
eight miles is driven cash week by Mr.
Coacls and in one year the distance
covered le 5,616 miles. It is doubtful
if there is, another, rural mail carrier
m Ontario with a retold like that of
Mr. Coade.-Mitchell Advocate.

retary, Mr. Anderson last week tele-
dered his resignation owing to 111
health, For all those years Mr. An-
derson has been ready to answer the
call to a fire whether in the balmy
days of summer or in the depth of
winter. aticl at any hem of the day or
night. Some of the more serious fires
