Leaves Horse In Drift A brutal crime was committed on a poor, blind horse by a resident of Witigham a few days ago. He was ilriving this horse home when it got down.in the snow, so rather than waste the time in helping the horse, be left it in the deep snow, 'where it stayed all night. Not being able to see, the horse could not find shelter, so after tramping around for some considerable time, the poor Irute lay down where it was found the' next morning by some of the neighbors. The authorities at Goderich receive.d word and sent out Constable Postle- waite, who arrested the owner and took him to .Goderich, where he ap- peared before Police Magistrate' Chas, Reid, who imposed fine of $/o.00 and costs.

Will Put Up More Signs The Automobile League Association has a largeprogram outlined • this year to erect noticeable signs through- out Ontario, for the convenience of motorists. These sig -ns will not only direct motorists as to thebesi roads, but will be a warning to them to be- ware of bad. crossings and tricky plac- es in the road It is its intention to protect against accidents as much as possible. A sign which is original in every deta4 and which will attract the attention of every motorist, will be placed at every crossing. This sign has the words printed on it, "Stop, Look! Listen—It .Pays." The letters "0" in the word look are converted into a face, which shows a skull andi cross -bones effect, and which will be d' warning -to motorists to stop and look and listen. They have a number of other signs which should make an impression on the motor car driver.
