A, C. Calder, Con servative candidate, met his opponent, Dr. C .B. Oliver face to face under the most unusual and amusing circum- stances. Rev. Mr. Calder had called on a Chatham woman to urge her to the polls. - The lady stated she was un- able to leave the house, as she had no one with w,vhom to entrust her two little children. An arrangement was made whereby she would take her older child with her to t1 e polls and :Rev.' Mr, Calder would stay in the, house with the baby until she return- ed. Shortly afterwards there was a knock at the door and when Mt. Cal- der opened .the portal, with the baby in his arms, he beheld no less a per- son than his oponent,; Dr. C, B:, Oliver, standing on the porchway. "Is the lady of the house in?” in- quired the doctor. "No, she is riot,” replied Mr. Calder, "I gather she has gone to vote,' "You are perfectly correct," Then political barriers were brok- en down., Dr. Oliver, realizing. the ludicrousness of the situation was pre- 'vailed upon te, enter, and the contest. the ,quit, t house ant s atone an u e of the bzt s ,q discussed in a most friendly and cans did fashion the bitter contest which was waging outside. They shook hands and expressed the opinion that no matter which way the tide of victory would go a splen- did thing had been done for West Kent as a result of their presence in the field as candidates. The riding had been "cleaned up," as it were, 'of all signs of bribery and corruption. But time was precious. Dr, Oliver, who has been fighting hard every inch on the way and tak- ing advantage of every. opportunity to gain a point, saw a chance to do valuable soliciting while his opponent was acting the role of nursemaid, so As the doctor passed • down the street he caught a glimpse of Rev. Mr. Calder' still standing in the door- way with the baby in his arms—the baby that Dr. Oliver himself, as fam- ily physician, had ushered into the world.
