DIED IN WISCONSIN MR. G. Lucknow Produce Merchant, Now Past Four Score Mark Who Has Had Colorful Career As Described By Rev. A. M. Nicholson In An Article. In This Issue. OBITUARY ■Thursday about one o’clock, in the dry , grass farm, of Mrs. Peter Tor­ rance. The ■'blaze was fanned by a. strong westerly breeze and licker! up the dry pasture land in spite of the efforts of a, rapidly gathering band of fire fighters, many of whom arrived at the scene after a fire alarm had been sounded in the vil­ lage. , . The blaze swept westward, set fire of a. rail fence, leaped the roadway (known as Torrance'’s sideroad), and set ablaze the fence and grass in-the adjoining field. This is a 50-acre grass farm owned by Harry Tor­ rance and rented by W. E. Hender­ son, In the centre of the field , is a frame barn filled with hay, and im­ plements owned by Frank Graham and which building was in the path of. the blaze. The spread southward toward Mrs. Torrance’s building was more easily controlled. . , A swampy part to the eas|, aided the fire fighters, armed with branch­ es and wet bags to finally control the fire after it, had left a blackened -swath over an, area conservatively estimated at ten acres. The afternoon train coming to Lucknow stopped and supplied water, . w hile a gang ^worked ceaselessly in carrying water from the creek, up the steep hill;, over 'which the flames were sweep- ing__ _______________________ __ . ■: On Monday of this-week, at pre­ cisely the same hour, another out­ break occurred on the Harry Tqi- rapce farm at the north .east corner of the field and . fanned by a north wind this time, was sweeping south­ ward again endangering Frank Gra­ ham’s barn of hay and implements .„>Th0 blaze started on the railway bank- and burned a few ' rods of storm fence along the track.; The fence checked the spread of the blaze for a time and fire fighters, again summoned by a fire alarm, confined the blaze to an area of less than an acre of pasture land. Last Thursday afternoon; a second alarm of the day was sounded w’hen a grass fire broke out, near the ropd. on the’Button farm at the north of the village, adjoining Philip t Stew­ art’s property. It was quickly con- dangerbus proportions.

Keep to the right hand side of the road so you will, not have a head-on collision. The most important thing to re­ member is not to pass another motor vehicle on the face of a hill. Many fatal accidents have been due to a head-on collision, when in the act of doing so. When driving, in mountainous or extremely hilly chunter put your car in second year so as' to save your brakes when descending. This /s particularly important if the., road is slippery Or Icy.
