THE BUILDERS
(Contributed)
This week, plans tb rebuild the
blacksmith shop in • Egmondville
were ratified by a specially appoint-
ed committee. Canvassers report the
, response. unanimous: It is interesting
to observe the response. One is re-
minded of former days when com-
munity efforts of this kind were
commonplace.
In these days when the world and
its people are hurrying onward and
things take new shape and form
about us, we sometimes wonder if
perhaps we have lost the import of
the world tradition. Fifty years ago
men wrought with greatest care;
the code of our grandfathers was
"Let us do our work well, both the
unseen and the seen". Times and at=
titudes have changed yet it is inter-
esting to observe the reception of
the canvassdrs, the response and
goodwill.
The village blacksmith has long
stood large upon the horizon, Each
and, every man at some time has
need of his services. The committee
has given time and effort to put
this project over. More money is
needed to finish the job, also volun-
teer labour. Contact one of the com-
mittee at once. Remember that
"Duty is what one expects from
others, it is not what one does one-
self."

butors and amounts given, the bal-
ance of which will be published next

TWO DISTRICT WOMEN
KILLED AT BADEN
Mrs. A. C. Levey, of Egmondville,
and Mrs. Carl McClinchey, of Kip -
pen, were killed on Thursday after-
noon last when the car in which they
were riding was struck by a freight
train at the highway crossing at
Baden, shortly before five o'clock.
Critically injured was Louis Prang,
R.R. 3, Zurich, with the wall 'of his
chest caved in; and Daniel Oswald,
R.R. 3, Zurich, 67 -year-old father of
Mrs. McClinchey, is suffering- from
bruises on body and right elbow.
Both the car and the train were
reported travelling west When the
accident occurred The car was bit as
it wasdriving over the crossing on
No. 7 Highway and dragged, by the
train, 300 yards to a position past
the Baden railway station. The two
amen were sitting in the front seat
and the women in the rear.
Provincial. police report that, as
the car approached the track, it
swung wide to pass another vehicle
stopped there. When more 'than half
, way over the crossing it stopped,
went into reverse, and backed into
the path of the freight train.
Two eye witnesses to the accident
reported that, as the car was drag-
ged along the tracks, its left rear
struck a freight car standing on a
siding near the station.
The victims were taken to St.
Mary's Hospital in Kitchener, where
Mrs. McClinchey died shortly after
being admitted: Mrs. Levey was
dead in the car when doctors reached
the scene of the accident. Internal
iniuries were reported to be the
cause of death in both cases:
All four victims in the car were
related. Mrs. Levey was a sister-in-
law of Mr. Oswald and aunt of Mrs.
McClinchey. Mr. Prang was a great-
uncle of Mrs, McClinchey. The party
were returning from Kitchener,
where they attended the funeral of a
cousin, Franklin Ruby.
Police were able to reconstruct
the collision with the help of two
Baden youths, Keith Lichty and Ron-
ald Schnarr, and drivers of cars, D.
Landon, Toronto, and Norman Hur-
as, R.R. 3, Kitchener, stopped at the
crossing.
In June, 1947, an elderly man was
'killed when he was struck by a train.
at the same crossing that is protect-
ed by a wig -wag signal.
The Baden crossing is a dangerous
one and on at least four different
occasions cars from Seaforth or dis-
trict have been struck by trains
there, resulting in serious injuries to
the occupants.
