Sweitzer, former warden of Huron County, when, on the strength of “what might have been," he sold a $5,000 life insurance policy to John Regier, of Crediton, while they awaited a traffic officer be side their wrecked autos after crash ing. By the time County Traffic Of ficer Lever arrived, the enthusiastic salesman was working on a second prospect with the cheerful yiew: “Look what happened to us; how are you fixed?" Unfortunately the officer interrupted the second sales talk. — Goderich Star. c Taken by Death ■Mrs. Martha Armstrong, wife Lewis Armstrong, Morris, died Wednesday in her 48th year, after a serious illness of several weeks.

A badly faltering Huron crew visit ed Kincardine Thursday and managed to hand the home team a 13-11 vic tory in a regular Bruce League ball game. The bad case of jitters devel oped by the Braves during July now threatens to sink the Indian craft with all hands aboard and shore only a few games away, That a club can. deteriorate from one of the finest fielding teams in the province to the low estate reached by the Tribe late ly is a sport calamity of the highest water. The only explanation possible is a lack of proper interest by every one from bat-boy to president. Ag ainst the sort of opposition encount ered this year the club should have lost only two or three games, but as it is, they'll be lucky to finish in the first four. As for Thursday’s game, to start with, it was played on a field so prim itive that it is doubtful if Abner Doubleday, who invented the game back in 1840, would recognize it as a ball park. However, if the park was bad, the players were even worse. \A1-1 most three hours elapsed and a bright moon had risen between the start and finish of the so-called game. Three different innings provided rallies of five runs or more and of the three Kincardine was lucky in having the odd one. The Hurdns went ahead with a run in the second but the Lakesides scor ed five ,in their half on six hits and an error. The Braves picked up single tallies in the third and fifth to close the gap and left, the bases full in the fourth without scoring a run. Failure to convert a double play ball into just that caused Chalmer.s to lose his own game and give the Penetangs six big runs in the sixth. After one was out Graham scratched a hit off a rock .in the infield and then Hall bounced one back to the box. Chalmers promptly threw it into centre field and before the dust had settled six runs had scored, Bob was sitting on the bench and Colvin doing mound duty. Jack struck out the only man to face him and then retired to left field, Joe Tif fin finishing the game. The Hurons scored six themselves in the seventh. Rae was safe on an error and Doran got plunked in the ribs by a pitched ball. Both advanced while Carmichael was striking out and Rae finally scored on a wild pitch. Gurney scratched an infield single and took second unmolested. At this time Tom Pollard complained of a sore arm and Hall took up mound duties for a time. His first, act was to com mit a balk allowing Doran to score and putting Gurney on third. Bob Thompson took Mellor’s roller and threw Wally out at the .plate. Joe Tif fin singled to centre moving, Mellor to third and taking second on the throw-in. Both scored on Colvin’s drive which went through Marcus for a two-base error'. Bill Tiffin singled him home and took second on the throw-in. A long double by Somers scored Tiffin but the former was toss ed out at third trying to stretch the blow into a triple. Kincardine scored a run apiece in each of the next two innings and while the Tribe scored two in the eighth on singles by Rae and Carmichael around Doran’s triple, it wasn’t enough. Dor an, with a pair of triples and Rae with a double and two singles led the Hur on batters while Bob Thompson and Murray Monroe with three hits apiece led the lakeside crew. A blind stab of a hard-hit ball off the bat of the luckless Chalmers by Graham for an unassisted double play, was the field ing feature of a drab day. ♦ * * Another Chance Lost Wingham— Get rid <?f half-sick days—with the headaches, the listlessness, the “always tired feeling.” Frequently, they coine from common constipation .., due to meals low in “hulk,” AU you have to do is eat a de licious cereal regularly; “Every morning, for years, I have had a good helping of your All-Bran, and it means regular, daily elimi nation.”—-Mr, E.

With the game hope lessly lost, Bill Groyes, youthful left hander, was given a chance to toss ‘cm up in the eighth and did well. The husky 16-year-old brother of the departed catcher, Bob Groyes, struck out two and yielded' two hits, singles, but one of which went home-run when Bob Chalmers to stop the driye with his feet, the usual result, on the blow, Minus such regulars as Bob Groves, Peterson, Gray and Carmichael, the Tribe looked anything but good ag ainst a club they had previously beat en four times in five starts, A walk, two singles, a double, a homer and two errors resulted in seven Hanover runs in the first, The home-run, a long drive by Frank McCartney, was the last of the above named happen ings and cleaned off the bases, Han over also filled the bases in the sec ond with none out but the Braves tightened temporarily and got out of that hole with no runs. Some poor fielding in the third gave the Grey boys three more and ’ the Hurons were behind 10-0. Meanwhile the Braves were having little trouble hit ting McCartney but were unable to get the ball out of the infield. Mac struck out only one batter all after noon but his-mates had fifteen assists which shows what way the wind was .blowing. The Tribe broke the ice in the fifth and averted a shut-out, an ignominy they have never suffered in Bruce League competition. It took three singles by Mellor, Bffl Tiffin and Somers and a fielder’s choice by Thompson, to score the latter. Krueg er got that one back for Hanover in their half with a long home-run ,to right field. Two singles and a double steal added another in the sixth. A pair of errors and Bill Tiffin’s third of four singles he’ collected, allowed Thompson to score his second run of the day in.the seventh. With Bill Groves pitching in the Sth Brown drove a double just over the first-base bag. Dankert fanned but Moore got a round-tripper when Bob Chalmers let his single roll through. Rae threw out Pin Thompson and McCartney fanned to complete a cre ditable performance by young Groves. Joe Tiffin scored the Hurons’ last run when he got a life on an error by Wendorf with two out.
