SECONDARY SCHOOL BOYS AND GIRLS
SHOW GREAT ABILITY AT FIELD MEET
Wingham was the centre of interest
to the sport -loving boys and girls of
the High and Continuation Schools of
this section on Friday on the occasion
of the annual interscholastic field
meet. Nearly all motored here and
the freshiesand freshettes made their
arrival and presence known with plen-
ty of horn tooting £from the ribbon -
decked motors.s.
The local school staff, had -ample
preparations made., for, the - prompt
commencement of the sports, which
were handled inan expiditious and
satisfactory manner, coming toan
end just as a threatened rain broke.
But what effect had a rain on youth
as acquitted itself that day. Why
Drayton and Listowel boys and girls
came up on open trucks, and it is
safe saying, that the rain on the way
home was just one of the enjoyable
incidents of the day.
Some really excellent ability devel-
oped in the contests, Nickle of liar-
riston, showing up well in the sprints.
Harriston basket -ball girls looked like
second choice at half-time with Lis-
towel, but came strong in the other
half and won handily. Wingham girls
won very handily from Mount Forest
andalso from Harriston in the play-
off.
Miss Nancy Taylor repeated her re -
coed, of last year by winning the sen-
ior girls' championship, while the lo-
cal school again carried off the high
standing with Tis points, or more
than the next two highest contenders.

i ARM BADLY CRUSHED
IN MOTOR ACCIDENT
Gordon nevelt, son of Robert Dey-
ell, of. Turnberry, near 'the town, had
the cords of his right arm, near the
wrist severed, and sustained other in-
juries, in a motor accident Friday ev-
ening, Driving an open car, he reach-
ed out to turn down the toppart of
the windshield; when the car swerved
into a telephone post beneath the C.
N, R, bridge. !
The doctor, realizing the serious
,nature of the injuries hurried him to
linton hospital, where the exact na-
ture of his injuries were learned, and
the necessary treatment given, There
is a possibility of the young man los-
ing use of some of'his fingers as a re-
sult, but this will not be known defin-
itely for some time,
Gordon seems due for any ill for-
tune in the district, for it was only
last fall that he got an arm hurt in a
threshing machine.

LET THE FLOWERS ALONE
Plots of spring flowers set out by
the Horticultural Society last fall are
at their best, now, and certainly pre-
sent a beautiful appearance. The tul-
ips are of an even height, every bulb
throwing a splendid flower, and the
colors, different shades of rose and
pale mauve attract the passersby.Like
many another gratuitous deed, there
are some who do not appreciate jthe
labor and expense involved in this
work, nor ' possess the interest of
"hands off". One or two of the beds
are spoiled by ruthless hands in pick-
ing several blooms, twenty-one going
front one plot, These plots are the
result of a labor of love to create a
good 'impression ,on the public, to
beautify the town, and as an induce -
meet to the citizens to grow flowers.
Enjoy them as they grow, but do not
mar the beauty spots by plucking the
blooms. .
MANY PAINFUL MOTOR ACCIDENTS
REPORTED OVER THE WEEK -END
Chester Showers is experiencing a
drouth in motor car driving for a few
weeks, because he failed to a see ' a
post in time to turn out, and the in-
evitable collision resulted in a broken
arm:
What
might have ave proved a fatal ac-
cident happened the other night south
of Wroxeter, when a motor car driv-
en by Percy Copeland, was struck by'
a fast-moving car, and sending his car
into the ditch. Mrs. Copeland us
stained a broken collar bone, while
Mr, Copeland was stunned. /The hit-
and-run
it-andrun motorist did not show the
least concern for his action, moving
swifty away. Some day, some where,
some how, this species of crazy driv-
ers may realize what he did, and make
amends,
f1: On Thursday 'at Belgrave, Lewis
Stonehouse received a bad bump, when
a heavy moving van frightened his
horse, which was being driven single
for the first time, so th.r.it got out
of control and dashed into theg as
pump at ' Mr. McKenzie's. The sud-
den stop catapulted Lewis out of the
rig to the cement sidewalk, causing a
fracture of the skull and a sever shak-
ing up. For a time grave doubts
were felt for the young man's recov
ery, but after removing a piece of brae-
' ken bone from the brain, he shcwed,
marked improvement, and is now ex-
pected he will recover/ lie is in the
Wingham hospital.
Andrew McKenzie, a
n youngman
who lives between Teeswater and
Winghans, received a badly' broken
arm, and several painful wounds to
his face and arms Saturday, when his
car took a head, first charge into 'a
telephone post. On his way to Wing-
ham he had just passed a wagon load-
ed with gravel, close to the ditch,
when the car shot out' to the other
side and crashed into the pole:- One
arm is badly broken, his nose and face
cut and bruised and his whole anat-
omy badly shaken up. He is in the
I Wingham hospital where doctors and
staff are endeavoring to get him in
proper shape again.
Late Saturday night Mr. and. Mrs:
Rogerson of Blyth, were returning
from Wingham, and when at the se-
cond bridge from Wingham noticed
another car coming on this narrow
affair. Apparently the lights blinded
Mr. Rogerson,, for his car hit the rail-
ing, and the resulting jolt sent Mrs.
Rogerson against . the front of the
car knocking out several teeth
