Dear Sir,—Driving along the Queen's Highway, in Huron county, on Monday evening, shortly before dusk, myself and family narrowly escaped being smashed up by one of those mad dogs of the highway, a drunken driver. Speeding over 75 miles an hour this menace swooped across the white center line and flashed by less than an inch away from a head-on crash. He -was gone in the distance before his number could be got. How long will the public put up with these maniacs of the road? That drunk, amok with a gun, would arouse the community. Police and posses would hunt hini down. But because he was at the wheel ,of a car, we smile and shrug. The automobile is dangerous un- der -the most favorable conditions. With a drunk at the wheel it is a killer., and all too often the innocent suffer while the guilty are unhurt. CITIZEN BRUCEFIELD We are sorry to learn that Mrs. A. riicQueen has been on the sick list. We wish her a speedy recovery. Mr. and Mrs. R. Dunn and Timmy spent the week end in St. Cathar- ines.

In former years pupils from the sur- rounding district were brought in by bus for these classes, •Students in Grade 13 found that their curriculum has been changed by recent order of the Department of Education.

Plans for the bazaar and home baking sale on October 4th that is being sponsored by Group 1 of the Woman's Association of North Side United Church were completed at the meeting of the organization on Tuesday evening when 24 members met at the home of Mrs. George Eaton. Thedevotional convener, Mrs. Ellis, opened the meeting with the use of the hymn "The Church's One Foundation," followed by the Lord's prayer. Mrs. G. Pryce read the scripture lesson. Mrs. Ellis spoke briefly on "What Do We Wor- ship" and then led in prayer. Miss Maude Ferguson read the poem. "Home Is Haven." The secretary's and treasurer's reports were given. Mrs. C. Walden offered her home for the October meeting. Mrs. Garn- ham closed the meeting with prayer. Lunch was served by the hostess assisted by Mrs. J. Barron. FEDERATION REPLACES O. A. C. SCHOLARSHIP At the August meeting of the dir. ectars of the Huron County Federa- tion of Agriculture, it was decided to discontinue the Ontario Agricul- tural College scholarship that has been awarded annually to a Huron county boy entering the O,A.C. for either the two-year or the degree course. In place of this $100 scholar- ship, the federation will pay a $10 grant to ten representatives from Huron county who will attend the farm economics course at the O.A.C. next winter, Each township will nominate a candidate and ten will be selected from the list to take the course. It was decided to have the annual county banquet on a separate date from the annual meeting. It was tentatively decided to hold the ban- quet on Oct. 29 with Cameron Mc- Taggart, Glencoe as guest speaker, and to have the annual meeting on November 12th, The beef producers' committee of the county was asked to call a county meeting of all interested beef producers to try to find some solution to the marketing difficulties that the beef industry finds itself in at the present time, and with an in- dication that marketing conditions may become steadily worse unless some solution is found for the hand- ling of surplus beef that has been built up on the farms owing to the recent foot-and-mouth epidemic in western Canada: There are about 10,000,000 pounds of the British contract left to be filled. A notice of notion to amend the constitution was placed before the meeting. This change in the consti- tution would give all the township Federation officials the right to vote at the county annual meeting. At present, only two representatives from each township are entitled to vote, and one from each ,affiliated organization. The representation from the affiliated organizations would remain the same. It was felt that this would encourage more people to attend the county annual meeting.

With' this in mind he shook his fists; And firmly he declared, "I'll do it now or never, So maidens all beware. He dressed up in his best attire; Like crusaders of old And started bravely on his quest, No lover was more bold; He polished up his :car and rushed out to the highway, no limit to his speed; And off be hied to Betty's house, To pop the question clear, Will you be mine, my darling, And marry pie, my dear. Now Betty is quite excited. By this time you may guess, Looked up at her Prince Charming, And shyly answered Yes. Hooray, said I{en, I knew I couldn't miss, I'll take no chances forthwith, 1'11 seal it with a kiss. They hur- ried to the minister, To hint their bliss they told, And very kindly asked him Their happy lives to mould. I do, Ken will say content- ed; I will, will say the bride; And hand in hand they'll start To face whate'er betide. As through life we journey on, Your kindness we'll appreciate. We wish success to you and Ken In your new hone on No. S. Tonight we all salute you, Will bring your gifts in sight, And many years of happiness, We wish to you tonight.
