Harry Carey had a peculiar experience in their apart- meets in the Snell block during the past week. ’While working1 around the stove they frequently received an electric shock. They could pever •tell when they picsed up certain ujitensils whether an electric shock would dart through the body and cause them to drop in a hurry what­ ever they had touched, At one time Mr. Carey stuck his finger into a container with water on the sfove to test the temperature and lie re­ ceived such a shock as to cause film to withrow the blind rapidly. .Air. H» AV. Doerr, hydro superintendent' was called in 'and made some invest­ igations and alterations and the ’fol­ lowing day when the hydro inspector from London was in town he visited the apartments and explained that the cause was static electricity which •name from some of the new rugs end passing through the body at .certain times created a shock, on handling certain utensils. s CHOICE SHORTHORN ROES TO Qestricher Bros., of the Cloverdale Stock.'■Farm, Credlton, h^ye/soid'it. young 14 months old bull, one of the young bulls they have bred and shown throughout Huron County full fairs during the past fall, to Al’r.

In the first bout Alathews won the decision over Bieber. In the second contest * there was plenty of action. E. J. Jefferies an& H. Clark stood toe to roe and ex­ changed wallops for three rounds. Jefferies’ superioi' weight and strength offset the superior boxing of Clark and Jefferies won a close decision. The third bout was stopped in the third round when Mathews had clearly got the better of c. Trieb- ner. The sensation o,f the evening came however, when Alatnews, who had already appeared twice, met' Al Al'c- Donell, of Hensall. Near the be­ ginning pf the first round AIcDonell, after leading twice lightly to the chin, connected with Mathews’ jaw and Mathews went down, The latter, although floored twice, was willing to proceed, but the contest was stop­ ped. » CENTRALIA Air. and Mrs. John Pollard were confined to their home for a few days last week owing tq-illness.

BARLEY GROWERS IN PERTH HURON AND BRUCE WILL BENEFIT The order for 1,000,000 bushels of Ontario barley which has been placed by the Canada Afalting Com­ pany, is a substantial one consider­ ed in proportion to the amount of ■barley grown in the province. Sta­ tistics for 1929 show that Perth rais­ ed 7S5.049 bushels of barley that year. Huron raised 1,039,890 bu­ shels and Bruce 6 80;-281. Farmers in these counties will doubtless be intensely interested in the order of Ontario barley, therefore, , The bar­ ley will be bought at Alontreal if it is clean, sound and reasonably free from other grains, and if it weighs 4 8 pounds to the bushel.

McGillivray home is DESTROYED BY FIRE Fanned to fury by a high wind, flames, probably originating in a chimney fire recently totally des­ troyed the home of Homer -Smith, four miles from Ailsa Craig on the seventh concession of AicGHHvray. Loss is heavy, as the house was con­ ceded t0; be one of the finest in the township, and its value was only partly coveted by •insurance.

INTERAiEDIATES TRIM JUNIORS On Thursday night last the two local hockey teams -battled at the local rink; The older boys were successful over the .younger ones by the score of 6 to 5.

The Intermediates started the scoring in the opening period, when Wells on the defense dented •the twine twice.. During this per­ iod the Juniors failed to score. The Intermediates added two more in the second period, before ' the Juniors counted and the period ended with the score 4 to 2. During the final period the juniors put everything they had into the game and succeed­ ed in tying the count after the In­ termediates had scored another. Both -teams battled on even terms till near the end of the period Creech scored the nvinhing goal when he scored on a lone rush. Both teams were shorthanded. J-oynt and PryAe of the juniors were playing in Sea­ forth with the school while Tuckey and >Snell of the Intermediates were absentees. The three boys fr-O-m Dashwood Hoffman, Wein and A'ler- er, formed a good forward line. Hap Wells on defense played a good game and took off the scoring lion* ours1 with three goals. Piassmore bn the defense was the pick of the juiriofs. Both goalies made some clever saves. ’Peg’ Shaddick of Hen­ sail handled the game.
