quarter miles, south of Kippen and
two and one-half miles east of the

The driver, apparently, miscalculated
the distance and the end of the road

for the car is alleged to have sltudd•ed
85 feet with the brakes applied. Wal-
tere was thrown against the steering
wheel receiving mouth and nose lac-
erations. Jean Long, sitting beside
him, was thrown against the wind-

WINNER , WILL FLAY
COLUMBAN
Seaforth Beavers will go to Clinton
Thursday night with a two -goal lead
for the second and final game in the
south section H.F.L. semi-finals.
The locals defeated the Clinton
Colts here Tuesday evening when
they scored a 2 to 0 victory against
the fast -stepping Colts. The return
"game will be •played sty Clinton on
Thursday evening with goals to count
on the round. The winner of this
series will play the league leading St.
Columban team which. .has been idle
for some time waiting for a winter
to be declared. The games will be
played 'next week, possibly Tuesday
and Thursday.
Tho Beavers forced the play la the
first five minutes and accounted for
a goal when Jack Consitt, who was
waiting at the goal mouth for a pass.
took his time and guided the ball
through the opening on a pass from
the Sills boys out on the wing. A few
seconds later a kick from the. boot of
Herold Nicholson hit the post and
almost bounded into the goal. Clin-
ton then came to life and. fenced the
issue and put the Beavers back to
their own end of the field but were
not successful around the goal. The
Colts were fairly weak on the attack
at times and missed some good chanc-
es when the ball was at the Seaforth
end.
The second half began listlessly but
livened up towards the finish. About
half way through the period John
Flannery beat C. Wilson to put the
Beavers well up in the lead, on a
long shot. The Colts came back
strong and looked, like a different
team entirely. They put on a good
attack that:kept Seaforth in their own
territory for a few minutes. As the
time was drawing near the finish both
teams made some . dangerous rushes
under cover of darkness. It was a
real game and one that was well-
worth
ellworth watching.

AT PLOWING MATCH
Huron Plowmen's Associa-
tion Names Committee
To Be in Charge.
ENTER BY AUGUST , 15
At a recent meeting of the Huron
Plowmen's Association, which was
held in Brussels, the directors were
of the opinion that Huron County
should be represented at the Interna-
tional Plowing. Match this fall by a
team of three boys who would com-
pete in the Inter -County competition
for tee Farmer's Magazine trophy,
This competition. is open to one team
of three boys from each county its
the province and members of the
team must .not have reached their
2Oth , birthday by October 1, 1938.
Splendid cash prizes are provided at
the •International Match for contest-
ants in tee Inter -County Competition.
In all 15 cash prizes are awarded to
the ranking contestants, ranging from
a first prize of $40.90 to. a 15th prize
of $4.00.
The directors of the Huron Plow-
men's Association suggested that the
fairest way to select a team would
be to have interested ,boys compete
at a Junior Match, and the three high-
est boys would be selected to repres-
ent the county at the international
Match. To look after the proposed
Meier match, the following committee
was appointed; Bert Hemingway,
Brussels; Robert Michie, Brussels; R.
L. McDonald, Brussels; Gordon Mc -
Gavin, Walton; Ian MacLeod, Clinton.
Prospective contestants are asked
to notify any member of the above
mentioned committee on or before
August 15th if they intend to compete
at the local junior matob. The com-
mittee hope that there will be a suf-
ficient member of entries so that a
junior match may be conducted, and
a team selected to plow in the Inter -
County competition at the Internation-
al Plowing Match; which is being held
near Barrie, during the Second week
in October.

For Fires That Destroy

MILL FIRE STARTS
FROM GAS ENGINE
Walter O'lerien, Staffer miller, nar-
rowly escaped death Saturday morn-
ing when the gasoline, engine in the
chopping mill, owned. by his father,
Frank O'Brien, suddenly burst into
flames. Only the fact that he was
on the side of the engine nearest
the door permitted him to escape
with severe burns on his hands.
Within a matter of seconds the
mild„ which was erected 13 years ago,
was a mass of flames. So rapidly
did, the fire spread that nothing was
saved. A small shed to the rear iif
the mill was also destroyed.
It is believed a clogged gasoline
pipe caused the fire. It is thought
the gasoline,flooded and spilt on the
hot engine.-
Mr.
ngine.Mr. O'Brien intends to rebuild the
mill at once.
Barn Burns Down
Fire, believed to have been caused
by spontaneous combustion, destroyed
the barn on the farm of Roland Klein-
feldt, Lot 18, Con. 2, Hibbert, Monday
afternoon. The fire was discovered
about two o'clock and was preceded
by a loud explosion. The season's
hay crop had .recently been stored in
the barn and it is believed this is
where the fine originated. ,There was
no stock in the barn except one calf,
%t!ch was burned. The loss, which
is not yet estimated, is partly cover-
ed by insurance. e
