A Bad Accident A pedestrain and two women car passengers are in Goderich hospital on Monday night as a result of a dri- ver swerving to try to avoid a man crossing Highway No. 211, just north of Drysdale to snail a letter. They are Mrs. Jean O'Hara, 1213, wire of Robt. O'Hara Detroit driver of the car; and Mrs. Gordon Spencer, Owen Sound. In Clinton Hospital with a fractured left leg is Jule Challett, 64 of R.R. 2, Zurich, and resident_ of where'the accident occurred. The Detroit car was southbound and had slowed down when C'hallet started to cross the road to a mail box. Seeing the other car comittg he hesitated. But continued on this way across the road when he was hit by the 'oncom- ing car. In the last second trying to avoid an accident O'Hara turned the car, which crashed into the ditch., da: afternoon when the subscribers broke off a pole, and turned upside orthe System were called together down.

We,hope to hear .of their splendid trip and enjoyable time, along with many other good things that usually go• with such an •outing. NO CUTOFFS How fortunate we were oo far this week as the Hydro has been undis- turbed and the unwelcome cut-offs have been iliminated • for a week's trial. 'With more rainfalls in the eastern part of Canada, there is more power available, and we have more. power to play on. However, this does not mean, that we can now go and use it as we like, if we do, why back we go to the cut-offs again. We must conserve power where we can and turn off those unnecessary lights and avoid using the water heaters, especially during peak load times. All outside lights must be turned off, and in doing so we can enjoy this useful servant when we actually do need .it.
