If You Want Heating Satisfaction Use ." "Dand H" ANTHRACITE N. CLUFF &'SONS The boat a1 f Capt. Jack McLeod, veteran Bayili let fisherman. sank in Bayfield ha • ; early 'Monday morn- ing. orn- ing. Her c of two were safely re- moved, exhar :ted and injured, in a thrilling respire after a 12 -hour strug- gle with hj'(' a seas and in bitter cold and darkness in the open lake, miles ot shore. The rescue was ma'd'e by Capt.. Louis 'McLeod,._ brother of Captain Jack, and a companion named Mc- Dowell, in the Helen the 'Second. After several unsuccessful attempts the tow having broken six times, John McLeod, Jr., and a companion were taken aboard the Helen, young Mc- Leod with his hand terribly lacer- ated, an injury received When the spar of the boat was torn. away. Mc- Leod was on the verge of uncon- sciousness. His wound required eight stitches to close. (Sunday afternoon the two McLeod fishing ,smacks left Bayfield to lift their nets off Kettle 'Point. Shortly after they left, storm signals were displayed for a westerly gale. The rudder of Captain Jack's boat was carried away and after much dif- ficulty a tow was secured from the companion boat. Six times the line broke and finally the spar of the dis- abled boat was torn •y. It was then after midnight and with gasoline supply almost exhaust- ed, Louis McLeod struck out for Bay- field for a fresh supply. The 'help- less craft threw out her fish nets to .acU as a sea anchor. (The rescue boat returned two hours later with a fresh supply of gasoline and new gear, this time using anchor chains. It was three in the morning when the two 'boats 'hove in sight of the •Bayfield harbor, only to have Capt. Jack's boat ground and 'break up, but not before the crew were taken off in a 'gallant and heroic rescue, it having four times' failed. Snow, Which Commenced Last Week, is Still Fall- ing; Majority of Conces- sion Roads Are Impass- able. ;MONDAY LAST DAY OF SNOW, SAYS SEER (February blizzards in mid Novem- ber may be the usual thing in some places, but in Western Ontario in general and in Seaforth in particu- lar, they are an unwelcome and dis- tinctly unpleasant innovation. (With snow falling almost continu- ously since Friday, the ground is now. covered with well over two feet of snow and the therm'ome'ter . hovers dangerously near the zero mark. Travel on sideroads in town is risky and on concession roads prac- tically impossible. A number of cars and trunks on the way to Brucefield, via the Mill Road, were stuck at Charter's hill Wednesday. The North Road_ is open for cars. but with the snow still falling Thurs- day, may not long remain so. ••• The unusual storm seriously inter- fered nterfered with theattendance at a num- ber of events which were scheduled for this week. A travelling show, which was billed to play here Tues- day evening, was postponed because the truck carrying the nleyere:_equip- ment was ditched that morning. Number 8 Highway was badly driftedaby Wednesday and travel was slow and hazardous. The highway plow, however, cleaned the road out Wednesday evening. The 'present storm was accurately forecast in an article in The Exposi- tor on 'October 6th. The writer of this said that snow would fall be- tween the 13th and 20th of Novem- ber and the weather would be cold. The seer, however, erred in the tem- perature, which is not only cool, but decidedly cold. • BOYS' PARLIAMENT ELECTION ON - DEC .2 Rev. J. H. Stainton, 1✓xeter, Has Been Appointed Returning Officer.

HELD IN LOCAL RINK i Horseshoes is a fire gaamie but one needs sunshine and warm weather to •denive maximnunal pleasure from it. Such wat the 'conclusion reached by players in the (Western Ontario Chanrlpionship Tournament in the Palace Rink here, Saturday. With below freezing weather and in the unheated building, masters of the art of horseshoe pitching seem- ed unable to properly get under way and as a result play was not as brisk as it otherwise might have been. The tournament, sanctioned by the Dominion of Canada Horseshoe Pit- chers' .Association, attracted entries from many outside. points, including Cromarty, Heneall, Melbourne, Chris- tena, Belwood. Listowel, Zurich 'Hills -- burg, Harriston and Toronto. The eo'mlmrittee in charge included Carl Swanston, John Ostrum and Bert Camlpbell, seoretary-treasurer of the Dominion Association. 'It was announced at the close that. in all 'probability a Huron County League would he organized .in the spring with another tournament here next summery Mayor A. D. Suther- land welcomed the visitors. (Prize •winners in the various events which, despite the cold, were, keenly contested, were as follows: Open singles, finals, Fred"Harburn, Cromarty; John Simons, Melbourne: G. Boa, Hensall. •Doubles, finals - Simons and Stan. Riley. :Slorphy and Fritz, 'Coulson and Hall,. Bean and Burrows, Harburn and W. Riley. • Seeing England Lister House, Edinburgh, Scot., July 30th. Dear Jean: Scotland at last! The trip through Northern England and into Scotland has been perfectly beautiful. Finally, we came into pos- session of a car, a Rover 16 H.P. Saloon model like our sedan. Now hereby hangs a tale. She's a ripper -her dashboard turns handsprings and jitters terribly and she has de- veloped a thrust frightful leak in her radiator, so that nice polite English- men or Scotchmen come up to us and murmur. "Excuse me, but did you kr-.ow you had a leak in your radia- tor?" Did we know -we never buy more than two gallons of gas at a time ,so that we can get about five gallons of water. Besides, never are we without three thermos bottles of water in reserve, that is, after lunch \Olen the coffee has been diligently consurneci. "Lily" is her name, and how she carie by that? R"all--cor- ing over on the boat. one night I happened to be irl.b'ed before my cab- in -mates (I had come in about 3 p.m.) who were evidently much amused by my angelic countenance (while sleep- ing, you will unden-stand) and crept off to the dining -room, where they got one of Jean's nearly- dead yellow roses. Said rose was deposited in my hands and I guess the kids stayed awake nearly- all night to be con- scious when I would discover the deed. 0 fcourse, I at once fell heir to "Lily" for my angelic behaviour; the irony of it made me eager to pass it on to the Rover, so "Liiy" she remained. On gas and oil, she is very easy, but the low- horsepower necessitates -constant changing of gears on anything resembling a' hill. (Continued on page 4) COUNCIL DISCUSSES AVON CHESTS LTD.

"CHRISTIAN ACT" William T. Booth, Wingham; Hur- on -auditor for 1932, was found guilty on Friday by Judge Costello and was .sentenced to one month 'suspended sentence. The charge was that he accepted a 'bribe of $50 to falsifyhhis report and to conceal shortages in the account of Gordon Young, former treasurer, now in prison. The trial, which commenced Wednesday, morn- • ing of last week, finished Friday night. 'The fact that Booth hasalways borne a splendid reputation and that it was the first and only slip of hie life, weighed heavily with the trial judge in the extension of clemency. Executive officers of the company by which he .has been employed since 1921, gave -him a clean bill of health, • stating that for nine years he has, handled between $40,000 and $50,000 of the company's money anniially without the semblance of dishonesty. Booth admitted accepting 350 from the convicted county treasurer, knowing hint to be short in his ac- counts., and confessed withholding this information from county officers and to not including it in his re- port, but stated he had taken the money for `extra work" done as a result of the "terrible mess`' in which he found the hooks. He sought to justify his withholding of the true facts by saying he considered he was doing a "Christian act" by giving the treasurer a chance to make 'restitu- tion as he had promised to do. "It would haste been much more, of a Christian act for you to have offered to help Young out of his iifficulties had you not taken the $50, he offered you." Judge Costello told the prisoner in passing sentence. BdOth, a leader in church and com- munity life in his home town, , felt his position keenly. R. H. Greer, K.C., conducted the defense and Crown Attorney Holmes the prosecution. Friday morning Higgins, entered! the witness box and, as did his fel- low auditor, William -Booth, admitted staking 3b9 from Gordon' Young, convicted county treasurer, but said it was for extra work and not to falsify his report or conceal infor- mation of a shortage. Higgins ad- mitted that his signed statement of his audit tallied with the treasurer's statement to County •Council. al- though he had knowledge of both a shortage and an apparent surplus. • Judge Costello -"Why did you not ' report ;things just as you found them in accordance with the declaration of office you took?"
