Roy McVittie, well-known Blyth trucker, walked away front this scene, Practically
Unhurt. The accident occurred at the intersection of the fifth line and centre side -
road of Morris Township, Saturday night, May 23rc1. Roy,was travelling -south on the
sideroad and at the intersection his huge transport trailer _got out of control, jack-
nifed, took out the guard rails, hit the ,cement abutment,: and plunged 20 feet, down
to the edge of the Maitland river bank below, corning to a ,halt upside down as pic-
tured above. Alloy broke the winshield to get out. He walked to a neighbours to get
help. The tractor portion of the transport is not worth fixing. The trailer will be re-
paired. Roy was back in business Monday morning with h new outfit.

• The greatest horse -race In the world
was run this week, 11 Is, DI course,
known and appreciated throughout the
world as the ancestor of all Derbies every-
where, Il Is the English Derby, the 174th
running of which took place Wed-
nesday at Epsom Downs race track, in
ly County, England,
Crowds estimated in the hundreds of thousands have
vlewcd this colorful race annually, and as ninny probably
will witness the 1953 revival of this event, inaugurated in 1780.
The Derby, weak imitations of which are raced all over
the world, was a famous race when Canada Was a tiny colony,
and the United States government was in its infancy, And
American thoroughbred racing owes practically all that it is
to British racing stock, of which two of the Inost famous
winners of the Epsom Derby are now on breeding farms in
this continent -Blenheim II and Mahmoud, Whirlaway, win-
ner of the Kentucky Derby of 1941, was sired by the former.
As far back as the very first Derby, American eyes were
cast on the winner, Dlomed, and he was brought to a Virginia
farm, proving a foundation sire of American breeding, Rock
Sand, winner of the Derby of 1903, came to America and left
his mark on the equine blood -lines of this continent,
Two world wars failed to ball the Derby. In World War
I the ancient race was renewed at Newmarket as the New
Derby Stakes and' this process was repeated In the second
world war.
Contrary to prevailing belief,the English Derby con-
tenders run as in America with heir left sides to the rail,
throughout the mile and 881 yards distance -and on the turf.
The Epsom course starts up grade, then slopes the other
way slightly and finally the field finishes on a gentle uphill
grade. That takes real stamina, after a mile and one-half
heart -breaker.
The race usually is open and three 100 -to -1 shots have
scored in the Epsom classic and plenty of other long shots,
one at 1000 to .15, On the other hand in all the long history
of the event only nine horses quoted at less than even money
have won.
One winner was Iroquois, 2 to 1, the only American -bred
and owned horse ever to win the British event. Iroquois was
raced by Pierre Lorillard, onetime American tobacco magnate,
Probably everything that could happen on a 'race course
has occurred during the life of the Epsom Derby, extending
into three centuries, •
But the last one you'd think to happen would be for a
"ringer" to finish first!
In 1843 Running Rein, a four-year-old, was slipped In as
a three-year-old and he finished first! The deceit was discov-
ered, however, and the winner disqualified, Orlando, 20 to 1,
was winner of the $21,750 purse.

It's A Big Racket To Them -Loud noises and shoving crowds at
the coronation in London didn't bother these horses after they've
completed their spacial "racket rehearsals/' The horses got their
"soundproofing" at Woolwich, England, by being driven past
men who shout and clang garbage can lids together. One horse
can't take it, but he'll learn,
and watching the fight, was• a
Frenchman who happened 10 be
a small-time manager of prize
fighters. With an eye for an easy
dollar, he, lost no time In trying
to convince young Louis Phal
that his future and fortune lay
,in the ring, Easily persuaded the
Senegalese, unschooled and near-
ly savage, deserted the African
jungle, to' become a member of
the civilized world as a prize
fighter, He took the ring name
of Battling Siki,
t'0 e 4'
Siki received his baptism of
fire on a night in 1913, in the
French city, of Toulouse, No big-
ger than a middleweight, he
fought an experienced and veter-
an French heavyweight, The
youngster, barely sixteen years
of age, wolf by a knockout after a
brutal struggle.
e
Battling Silci fought again and
again, always matched with big-
ger, stronger men who knew all
the cruel tricks of their trade.
Always he won, When hurt or
stung, the young Senegalese was
like a black jungle cat savagely
striking outuntil his opponent
lay unconscious at his feet.
.. 4, •
The fame of the wild boy from
he African, jungle was growing
en the first World War
rope. Battling Siki
enlisted in the -French Colonial
Forces. After the war; -a....klero in'
the eyes of the civilized world,
he returned to-Paris,.on his broad
chest the Croix de Guerre and
the Medallic Militaire.
• •
Battling Siki went back to the
ring, for he loved the savagery
of the sport, He also loved
pleasure. He never trained,
Champagne, women, parties, all
these filled Battling Silci's crowd-
ed days and nights, When , he
fought in the ring, this mag-
nificently gifted fighter won con-
sistently. Finally, Battling Siki
battled his way to a shot at the
light - heavyweight championship'
of the world, a title held at thea
time by France's idol, Georges
Carpentier.
"Don't believe all you hear
and only half of what you see"
would seem to be a pretty fair
motto for' those millions who are
taking their box -fighting over the
TV route, Within a couple of
hours after the Marciano-Walcott
fiasco, we heard several TView-
ers who were prepared to take
their paralyzed oaths that Wal-
cott had not only been the vic-
tim of a short count, but that
they had distinctly heard the
referee and knockdown time-
keeper chanting the seconds, and
that the two had been a couple
of seconds apart in their timing.
i • *
Now that all the hullubaloo has
died down, the pictures -the most
complete ever taken -have been
scanned by experts, And what
is the verdict?1 It was a full, fair
count, right on the button, and
not even a teeny , trace of skull-
duggery or even poor officiating,
So what it all really amounted
to was this; poor old Joe . forgot
two things -first, to duck, and -
second, to get up in time, How-
ever, we needn't feel too sorry
for Mr., Walcott. It took him a '
long time to 'get into the big
money -but when he did, he
landed there with both feet, He
wasn't the greatest heavyweight
who ever lived; but- he was far
from being the worst. What he
lacked, mostly, was color- ex-
cept in the pigmentation of his
skin, 4' 4' 4'
Thirty or more years ago there
was another heavyweight who
lacked nothing of color dither in
or out of the 'ring. Re}Ttember
Louis Phal? Well, maybe .not by
that name; but when ,iwe 'give
him his nom-du-r'esint' of Bat
-
'fling Siki you'll surely ,recall him,
It all started one night when
the captain of a short-handed
British freighter sent some, of
his crew ashore at a French West
African port to try and pick up
some extra help, Three of the
toughest of these sailors spied a
,barefooted Senegalese native who
looked husky enough to make a
good sailor and tried to put the
snatch on him, The limeys got
the surprise of their lives, how-
ever, for in a short but bloody
battle the young Senegalese stiff-
ened all three of the prospective
kidnappers, At least that's the
way Bill Stern . tells it and tve'
have no reason to doubt his word,

. The bout itself was memor-
able, It- was not only one of the
wildest, bloodiest, and most sav-
age combats in the long history
of fistiana, but also' one of the
foulest, Gorgeous Georges Car-
pentier, realizing that he had
met his match in the former Af-
rican jungle boy, tried every con-
ceivable trick.'to win, On his side,
Battling Slki was so enraged at
the cruel tactics.of his adversary
thathe reverted to to the jungle
too. Carpentier was in -ghastly
shape when the referee ,to save
, the glamorous Frenchman from
the ignominy of defeat by .11.-
knockout,
aknockout, stopped the fight in the
sixth round and awarded the vic-
tory to hill] on a foul.
For a moment, the great, audit
ence ,sat stunned, Carpentier lay
on the ring floor, This face beaten
into a ' bloody pulp; Then pan-
demonium broke loose at the de-
cision given by the biased referee.
Scats were torn from their
moorings and tossed into the
ring, Angry thousands tried to
storm forward from all parts of ,
the arena_ 06 gendarmes rushed
lo: the rescue, .
During the commotion, the
judges held a, hasty consultation.
Minutes after the fight ended,
a pew decision was rendered. It
was "Winner by a knockout -
Battling Silci1"
e
The cries of the mob changed
to cheers, Battling Slid was lifted
to willing shoulders and swept
out of the arena, to be paraded
up and down the streets of Paris,
* ♦ •
Now the former barefoot native
became the idol of all France,
He played thr role to the hilt, tvilh
his -wild antics, in and out of the
boulevards, He had only to ap-
pear In the streets or at the table
of a favorite cafe to bring flocks
of women to his side,seeking
his favor, And what pleased him
most was to promenade the
Grands Boulevards of Paris with
a lion on a leash!
4' 0 4:
The pride and arrogance of the
new light -heavyweight champion,
the confidence he had in his skill
and ability as a fighter are indi-
cated by his agreement to meet
one of America's best fighters,
Mike McTighe, Not only did Siki
agree to meet the Irishman in
Ireland but he also agreed to the
date proposed by Mike -St, Pat-
rick's Day!
* S *
• Siki defended his crown against
McTigue in a Dublin arena jam-
med with frenzied Irishmen
howling for his blood. Soldiers
stood guard at ringside with fix-
ed bayonets. Ireland, at the time,
was in the throes of the black
and tan "troubles,"
4, 4: . •
As Battling Siki entered the
ring, a giant explosion rocked
the arena. A bomb had been set
off near by. Despite the tense-
ness of the situation, Siki fought
Mike McTighe twenty rounds to
a decision. And, as everyone ex-
pected with an Irishman meeting
a Negro in Dublin on St, Pat-
rick's Day, the decision went to
McTigue,
4, 4' r,
Shortly afterwards, Battling
Siki came to America with the
heavyweight title as his goal,
But high living had taken its fate-
- toll of that magnificent black
body, Siki won a few fights, lost
a few fights. Before making' his
bid for the heavyweight crown,
he tried to reclaim his lost light -
heavyweight title. Paul Berlen-
bach, one of the hardest hitters
in the ring,' blasted Siki's - fond
hopes by knocking him cold, It
Was the beginning of the end.
Battling Siki began to lose more
and more often, and to live high-
er and higher. •

sprawled face down in a rain -
soaked gutter, Il' was Battling
Siki, two bullets lodged in his
buck. The revolver which had
fired the shots was on the side-
walk nearby.
4, e e
The crime was perfectly ex-
ecuted, To this day, the murderer
of Battling Siki has not been
found, So far as everyone was
concerned it was the end of the
story for Battling Siki, age 28,
the man from the African jungle
who had sought fame and pleas-
ure in a civilized world only to
find death in a wet gutter far
from his Senegal home.
,New York Streets
In Bygone Days
All during the eighteen -fifties,
summer and winter, New Yorkers
as, well as visitors to the city
found pleasure in driving out of
town to the upper reaches of Man-
hattan. On warm, sunny days the
Croton Reservoir, on the west
side of Fifth Avenue between
Fortieth and Forty-second Streets,
Was a favorite destination. Its
high walls gave. it the look of a
vast Egyptian temple, and their
top formed a broad promenade
frnnh which you had fine views
of the" city to the south, the Hud-
son and East Rivers, and' the rol-
ling country that stretched north-
ward.,,,
In sununer and in winter, New
Yorkers who kept fast racers and
trotters exercised them on Third
Avenue. The center of this Wide
boulevard was paved for one mile
north of Astor Place, but there
were dirt roads left at the sides,
and beyond the pavement it was

all open road to Harlem Bridge,
five miles north, On a winter af-
ternoon, with hard -packed snow
underfoot, Third Avenue was a
swarm of sleighs of all sorts and
sizes, their bells jangling as they
sped along. There were gaily
painted cutters driven by furcapp-
ed gentlemen, ' who draped, the
backs of their seats with bear -skin
robes that flaunted out behind,
Some of these cutters were ex-
tremely elaborate - notably one
with a body carved in the form of
a sea -green shell lined with crim-
son velvet. There' were large,
roomy 'family sleighs, decked out
with buffalo, black bear and gray
lynx robes bound in red ribbon
and equipped with sham eyes and
ears,' 111 which pretty girls and
their parents topk the air behind
pacers that stepped along at the
rate of twelve miles an hour,
There•were omnibus sleighs, lum-
bering along behind four or six
horses, , , ,
Conversation was likely to turn,
also on the gold rush to California.
The shipyards that lined the East
River from Pike Street on the
south to Thirteenth Street on the
north could not build enough clip-
pers to embark the crowds of ad-
venturers who hoped to find for-
tune in San Francisco, People
went down to the East River piers
to watch the sailings of the "ex-
press lines" of clipper ships. As
these graceful vessels set off for
the long voyage around Cape
Horn -ninety-six days was con-
sidered record time -their passen-
gers usually struck up Stephen
Foster's lilting song, "0, Susanna."
Genteel New York had, a roman-
tic feeling about the beautiful
clippers, about the great merchant
princes -the Lows of Brooklyn,

Views Of The Damage Wrought By Last Week's Tornado
Below are pictured scenes of destruction which were the result of the Monday night tornado that ripped through the immediate areas of East Wawanosh and
Morris Township, directly north of Blyth, laying waste to many farm properties in a platter of a few short min 1.ites, Since that time• farmers have been busily engaged
clearing away broken -up barns, with an eye towards the huge construction job that.is faced by many. Damage in the Township of East Wawanosh has been estimated
by Government officials to be in excess of $100,000. The job ot assessing the cis mage in the Township of Morris trot under way on Tuesday morning, and -is expected to at
least equal that in East Wawanosh. The storm reached a.width of three or fr,ur miles, starting at 1;lyth, and reac!iing. north almost to Belgrave.

Here we see the crumbled remnants of the barn on the farm of Dan Hallahan, fourth concession of East Wa-

A County of Huron Crane was being used to remove' the debris from the cement portion of the barn, as Mr.
Hallahan, aided by willing neighbours, worked to extrica;;e trapped. stock from the ruins, A brother, W. J. Halla-

too was levelled in the same storm. Farther down this concession, hardly a barn in the Westfield area escaped

"Deur Anne Hirst; 1 have to
confide in someone, or go crazy.
My 'emotions are contrary to
ver'ything I've believed in. That
"ftetedge does me no good. My
miner and my heart won't. agree,
"When I was 17, I fell in love
—completely. I know he loved
me (women can tell) but there
was only one flaw in our ro-
mance — he was married. I was
already lost, My family found
out, and he was drafted—all at
the same time. They intercepted
his letters, and I thought he had
forgotten me.
"Two years later I married a
man I'd known three months.
My life since has been years of
drunkenness, debts, and Misery
I suppose my husband loves our
children, but he ignores them ex-
cept when he's drunk, and then
he's disgusting , .
STILL IN LOVE
"Last June I met J. again, Lt
was as though those eight years
had never been. I love him more
than my very life, and he loves
me. But—
"There are our children; he
has three, also. There is no
chance of our ever being to-
gether. I feel that I can't stand
itl I can't see him, and I' can't
bear not seeing him.
"Must I go on like this the
rest of my life? — Wanting him,
and hating myself for it? I fill
my days, but even that doesn't
help. What can I do?
D. K."
Perhaps the most painful ex-
* perience in life is to want what
• we know is unattainable, and
• to realize that we shall go on
• wanting it, though it is forever
•.beyond our reach.

They Died Twice
Medical men are discussing the
amazing case of Mr. William C.
Blosson, of Brooklyn, •New York,
who a few weeks ago was certi-
fied to have died from a heart
attack.
His body was taken to an, un-
dertaken for embalming, As he
lay in the mortuary, one of the
staff was horrified to notice that
his eyes were flickering slightly.
They rushed the man to hospi-
tal where, twenty minutes later
he sat up suddenly and declared:
"Whoever said I was dead? 1
certainly am not."
A similar case of a man" cone
ing to life" again was `reported
from New York three years ago.
The man, aged 65, was twice pro.
pounced dead within four hours
—and twice revived by heart
massage.
There is no authenticated case
in Britain of a person recovering
after being certified "dead" by a
doctor. In Britain a man is pre
sumed dead by law after his
heart, breathing and circulation
have stopped for five minutes.
Physiology today teaches that ir-
reversible changes occur in the
human brain and other. vital
organs if the circulation stops for
four minutes or more.
A Jamaican woman, Charlotte
Jones, who "died" aged 90, was
placed in a coffin and her bod,
packed in ice, Fifteen hour' later
the coffin -lid was seen to move
slightly and a white hand ap-
peared. The lid was removed and
up sat the "corpse," saying "My
I'm h u n g r y. Please give the
something to eat."
There was also the Italian wom
an, Teresa Marassia, who got our
of her coffin just in time to save
herself from being buried alive
The interment was due to talc'-
place half an hour tater

Tiny Books
Smallest book In the world to-
day—it measures a quarter o.f_
an inch by three -sixteenths of
an inch—was sent, by its owner
to a London auctioneer recently
and will probably be sold. It
contains verses from the Rubai-
yat of Omar Khayyam. The type
area on each of its thirty-four
tiny pages is just over one six-
ty-eighth of a square inch,
The setting of the type was
such a delicate task that it could
be done only at night when the
vibration of the office machinery
and passing traffic :fad ceased.
The book took seven years to
complete.
Other midget. books? 11 you're
lucky you might still find in a
second-hand bookship a copy of
the "Bijou Almanack," 1789 to
1893, measuring three-quarters
of an inch by five-eighths. It is
poetically illustrated by the fa-
mous Miss Milford. When it was
originally issued, buyers were'
provided with nilntature reading
glasses.
.A complete French ' transla-
tion of Dante's "Divine Comedy"
exhibited in Paris last' century
measured less than halt an inch
square. Although ' it contained
500 pages, only two large . sheets
of printer's paper were needed
for its make-up.
Li a. North of England library
was exhibited a 100 -page rice -
paper volume written in the
Mahratta language, This also was
only half an inch square.
She was fat and over forty.
but still kittenish. The young man
she• had cornered at the dance
was thinking hard for some ex-
cuse to escape, At last he mur-
mured: "Do you remember the
youngster who used to tickle you
under the chin at school?"
"Ohl" she exclaimed, gushing-
ly, "so that's who you are!"
"No," said he, blandly. "That
was my father."

it ns a rain -washed country

Day week -end --and the weather
such a disappointment to, those
living in the city who had plan-
ned a long week -end in the coun-
try; and for home gardeners, anx-
ious to put In plants and seedlings
now the danger of frost appears
to be over. Come to think of it,
isn't it foolish the way we plan,
for either work or pleasure, with-
out allowing 'for the fact that the
weather, or circumstances, or
family responsibilities, may make
it impossible for us to carry out
our program, We plan without
a margin. And yet a nmargln is so
necessary. It is a safeguard against
disappointment; a place to re-
• treat when plans fail to material-
ize. Remember the time when in-
vitations tc both public and so-
cial events often had in brackets,
after the time and place was
given, (D,V.) -- meaning "Deo
Volente" or "God Willing". D.V.
is a term that is hardly used at
all these days—in fact what D.V.
stands for may be completely lost
on present-day readers. We make
plans to suit our own conveni-
enees—very rarely do we think or
say to `ourselves, "God Willing".
And so, if and when our plans
don't work out the way we ex-
pect, there is no margin of re-
treat, We feel hurt as a result
and go around with a chip on our
shoulder.
I remember, some years ago,
sque business -man -farmer, a niid-
dje-aged bachelor; very efficient
and. uptodate, He planned every
hour of every day, for himself and
his hired help. Ask him on Satur-
day when he planned to start hay-
ing and he would tell you—"Well,
I figure I'll be in the first field by
10 o'clock Tuesday morning." Or
ask him about his milk produc-
tion and he would say --"Next
month I Pave three inure cows
coining in, then 1 shall be ship-
ping; five cans daily." That turn-
er plunnod without a margin, The
result was continuous frustration.
A heavy rain or the loss of a cow
completely upset his calculations,
One day he was found lying in his
own driving shed, n discharged
gun by his side.
Probably t1n happiest farm
folk are those .who allow a good
wide margin in planning their
farm and hone operations; who
always have asubstitute plan If
circumstances make it impossible
to carry out the original 'one,
Heavy rain may stop seeding for
a day or two—but it is a good
chance to clean up the driving
shed. Or Mrs, Farmer may be all
set to put in garden. And then it
rains , , . well, there'll be another
day. Might as well get the mend-
ing out of the way—or go to that
meeting 1 thought .l would have
to miss.
One busy women 1 know has
to work lists most of the time --
one is headed "Things 1 Must Do"
—the other "Things I Would Like
to Do", This woman always plans
her work, day by day, but when
weather or circumstances upset
her plans regarding things that
must be done, then she seizes the
opportunity for one of the more
enjoyable but less urgent jobs
from the second list.
As to that, last Thursday there
must have been a great many
omen who were falling back on
second choice jobs on account of
the cool weather. One of the W,1,
branches in this district chartered
a bus and the members went on
a sight-seeing, fact-finding trip,
which included making .a round
of a large stone quarry, where
several power shovels were in
operation, a visit to Hamilton's
famous Rock Garden, also to Dun-
durn Castle and Museum, once
the home of Sir Allan McNab; a
conducted tour of the Sovereign
Potteries, and a look-see al the
Mills Library at McMaster Uni-
versity. Since the bus was not
quite full a friend and I were in-
vited to go on the trip. My day
was already planned.but my plans
had been frustrated due to very
necessary but undelivered mer-
chandise. That trip was second
choice but 1 probably derived
more lasting satisfaction from it
than I would have done from the
work that had been my original
plan,
Friday and Saturday I was busy
—getting ready for a party of
five that we were expecting on
Sunday—only before the day was
out _the five became seven; Part-
ner had the lawn nicely cut so
there was no wet grass to walk
through. There is plenty of lawn
but it is no trouble to cut. Why
should it be , .. Daughter and
her husband came along on
Mother's Day with a power lawn
mower for Father! And that was
the best mother's day gift that
anyone ever had,
