Schoch come together on the Zurich road with the re- sult that the Tatter's buggy was badly wrecked. Schoch's horse ran away and was captured the next morning near the Evan- gelical church shed. Philip Masse, wife and children were returning home and in some way a collision took place be- tween his buggy and an auto owned by Peter Mclssac, Dash- wood. Both auto and righ were precipitated into the ditch, the auto landing on top of the bug- gy, Luckily, all escaped injury although the buggy was a wreck and the auto also was badly damaged. 40 Years Ago MAY, 1927 I)r. A. J. MacKinnon last week received his new Buick coach for which he had given his order some time ago. While this is a marvelous age of smooth running automobiles, yet we must admit this Buick slides over the road just a little softer than most of the recent new makes of cars. George Hess, our local car- riage and auto top repairer and painter, has reduced the size of the buildings around his shop. The large storehouse at the west end of the lot has been reduced to about half the size and the lean-to at the south end, formerly known as the en- gine and boiler room, has been taken away. The beautiful showers of rain for part •of the week has indeed put things right in line for a bumper crop.

The road leading from the Blue Water Highway has been scraped and gradelled and there are unconfirmed re- ports that branch railway track will be laid to the camp from the CNR line. 15 Years Ago MAY, 1952 We have had a very dusty village the past few weeks with- out any prevention, the dirt blows freely with the slightest of breezes, or cars and trucks passing over the roads stir up an awful dust. With more permanent pavements laid or the usual dust prevention earl- ier in the season, these nuis- ances would be eliminated. Thieves took over $200 from performers of the Huronia Male Chorus HMS Pinafore when they presented the show for the third time in Exeter Friday night. The money was stolen from the clothes of the men after they had changed into costume. The clothes were in a classroom at the high school. The old shallow well in the local fire hall, which has helped out many a time, is no more. It is now filled up with earth. Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Merner Jr., who have been living in the residence recently purchased by James Rannie, have moved their effects in •one of Ivan Willer't's apartments. Mr. and Mrs. Hubert Schilbe have moved from the former Thiel apart- ment to the other Willert apart- ment. Mr. and Mrs. Reg Black are occupying the apartment vacated by Mr. and Mrs. Schil- be, moving here from Dresden. 10 Years Ago MAY, 1957 After the numerous cold and frosty nights the past week, it has turned more seasonable this week with bright sunny days and nice warm-up •during the daytime to about 70 degrees. Those cold winds from the north last week really are some- thing to remember. The new Gingerieh block which is being erected is mak- ing nice progress. They are about ready now to put up the upper story. Rev. and Mrs. Albert Datars, of Hamilton, and Mrs. V. Dedels of Kitchener, were week -end guests here, attending the wed- ding of their niece, Miss Sheila Sehilbe, to John Teevins on Sat- urday afternoon in St, Peter's Lutheran Church, HENSALL Your Liberal candidate in Huron is Andrew Y.
