there on the King's birthday, At io
o'clock in the morning Teeswater and
Zurich teams played in a win for the
latter by a score of 8 to 3. At three
o'clock in the afternoon Goderich and
Wingham teams met on the diamond
and the result was a win for Wing -
ham by a score of eo to x, and the one
.who made the run was the only Code -
rich man to get as far as third base.
At 5 o'elock the two winning teams,
Zurich and Wingbam were again call-

of nine inniugs the score was a tie
5 to 5, with the odds looking verY

Died From Injuries
1)eepest sympathy is extended to
the family of the late Albert Hoinuth,
whose death occurred at his home in
Teeswater on Fridey afternoon, Last
week We reported the terrible accident
which befell him itt his floor mills on
Monday morning early, when his
clothes were caught in the shafting
and he was whirled 'around the shaft.
Those in attendance thought he had
a fair chance of recovery, but com-
plications set in and death relieved
him of hie intense pale.
Deceased was a soa of the late Chas.
HOIMIth, and sold his farm in Turn -
berry about three months ago and
purchased the Teeswater mill. He
was in his 45th year and is survived
by his wife and six young children.
Ina j. E. Honatith of Witigham us it

The funeral was held to Winghatn
cemetery on Monday afternoon and
was largely attended. Rev. Mr. Brad-
ley of Teeswater conducted services
at the home and 1R.ev, Dr. Petrie at
the grave, Many sorrowing frietidS

One of the most interesting of con-
versations was listened to on Wed-
nesday, may 3est, by Mr...W. A.- Ght-
braith through his new radio outfit.
He heard radio station K. Y. W. Wes-.
tinghouse Electric Co., of Chicago,
transmitting a special weather report
to a Mr. Townsend, who was in
charge of one Of the thirteen aero-
planes which left Milwaukee that day
in the National contest to pick three
entrants in the. International race in
Switzerland. This plane was se-veral
thousand feet in the air, and Mr. Gal-
braith heard them answer distinctly
thanking K. Y. W. for their informa-
tion, •
Other places which he heard dis-
tinctly were Newark and Pittsburg.
Mr. Galbraith also heard a station in
Pennsylvania testing out a nein station
an Massachusetts and the •reply' that
they could hear very distinctly.
