GARFIELD BROWN
Zurich — Ont.
Driver Not Liable
Providing a motorist is driving
within the law he is not liable should
he run into and do damage to a herd
of cattle on a public road. His Honor
Judge T. M. Costello has so^ruled
an interesting and important judgm,
ent handed down in county court.
Goderich, on Monday last. The mot-
orist,
notorist, Walter Thompson, is awarder!
$45 damages to his car, with .count,
costs, while the counter claim of the
farmer, Glen Cornish, for $115 for
cattle injured and destroyed in the
crash. is dismissed. The accident hap-
pened on the Clinton -Auburn county
road on July 9th last while a herd of
27 cows were being taken to pasture
from one farm to another , a short
distance along the road by a four=
teen years old girl. "It would have
been much better had the girl ,a.ssum-
ed the practice" of running ahead of
the cattle so that she might be able
to warn approaching traffic" comm-
ented the judge. "I cannot find other
wise than negligence on. the farmer's:
part in not taking proper precautions
to at least guide the animals as quic-
kly as possible through what must be
looked on as a dangerous zone. There.
surely cannot be any duty cast on
motorists to do anything else than,
keep to their own side of the road in
coming to the crest of a hill provid-
ing they are not "xceedi,ng the sy�.0
=limit." The evidence was that the
motorist was travelling between 30
and 40 miles per hour.
In Police Court
Last Thursday's session in the. Mag--
istrate's court, Goderich lasted:a lit-
tle over half an hour, as owing to the
absence of counsel and other details,
a number of cases were aajour^ned.
The case of Percy Howe, a Clinton
Chinese, charged with operating' a
"device- of skill mixed with chance"
—in other words, a slug machine,
Percy dict not know it was unlawfuf
to exchange merchandise for slugs
used in operating machine, and wase
asked to pay $22 in all. John Weiss
pleaded guilty to a charge of "wilful''
damage", laid by Mrs. Tremblay, his
landlady. after he had vacated' her
house. The wilful damage was a brok-
en pane of glass in a storm -door, al -
$2.50 worth of light bulbs were mis-
sing. Daniel Hartleib, Dashwood, ar-
rived in court, an hour after his case
'had been adjourned, ,after
is clrarged
with keeping for sale, and explained
That the shore road was almost im-
, passable and his car had to be push -
j ed out of the snowdrifts several tine -
es, otherwise he would have been on
time. His own bail of $500 was re-
newed a week. Louis Mendosa, Hen -
auto salesman, is charged with
getting $20 from A. Lillice, Seaforth
-under false pretences, adjourned for
,week. Allan Miller, Stanley town-
ship, also is faced with a false pre-
tence charge. J. S. Bedard, Drysdale
,complains that Miller• secured a swe-
ater coat and meals on a "rubber
cheque". This was also set over for
a week. •

Monday of next week is the day
fin' nominations in this place. • lir
the afternoon, the Township Couneili
Nomination will take place in the
town hall, and indications are that
this will pass off very quietly, asp by
the looks of things people do not se-
em favorably inclined for an election
this year, as last year we had a bit
of a shakeup, and three of the coun-
cillors have had only a year's: exper-
ience, and they generally are Taft in
longer than a year. However, it is
up to,the ratepayers, and we do not
wish to dictate what they shall do.
In the evening, then the nomination
of Police Trustees for Zurich will be
held, and the, ratepayers are urged to
come out and see how the village
fathers have done during the past
year. We would particularly urge
the Hydro users to try and attend
this meeting, as we under stand that
Mr, Harry G, Hess, the lo'al Super-
intendent, will have an interesting
message for us. Corrie out to the
'nomination meetings, and have; the
past year's activities explained to
us by tb,' yll;l°i,ous officinhe,

SCHOOL MEETING
The annual school meeting of Zur-
ich School was held on Wednesday
:forenoon, with only a "fair attend-
ance present. But the meeting was
very interesting indeed. After the
minutes of the previous meeting of
last year were read and adopted, the
"financial and auditors' reports were
received. The school is in a fairly
good financial standing, while' the
public `school, department shows a
deficit Of $1113:23, the Continuation
School treasury shows a nice balance
of $1498.08 on hand. In the genet -
al open discussion the matter of
piping the water from the village
supt$y tank to the school was discus-
sed and the matter left to the trus
tee^ Board. Estimates were had as
to the cost of this undertaking were
1 only available as to the cost of the
!,pipes, and no estimate was given as
ito the cost of labor. But as it is
quite a distance, it would run into
conuiicreraable money. However, the
feeling was that the trustees should
first find out if they could get the
regular 50'% grant from the Govern-
ment for this installation. At the
close; of the sheeting Dr. A. J. Mac-
Kinnon, who has been a trustee and
acting as secretary for eighteen years
and whose time had expired, advised
the' meting that he would not stand
for re-election. A vote of thanks
was tendered the Dortor for his effi-
cient services these year. In the el-
ection for a trustee which followed,
two names were voted on. Wm.
Reith and Oscar Klopp of town be-
ing nominated, and the former win-
ing lly one majority, and will be in]
for a term of three years.
