The foreman, in making his report on the incident, wrote: "Me and Bill was on the job. I was up the pole and let some hot lead fall which went down his neck.

LONG HISTORY—The building which has been used by Howick Township for the past 20 years as a municipal office has a long history which will come to a close when the new municipal office being built in Gorrie is completed. At one time the old structure was the office of Dr. Tuck, a medical doctor who served the communi- ty many years ago. It is understood the structure is about 70 years old.—A-T Photo. A Decalog for Safe Driving The Canadian winter, among other disagreeable features, pre- sents a four-month period of hazardous motoring conditions during which the prudent motor- ist has to modify some of his driving habits if he would side- step the perils which are con- stantly present on snow-cover- ed thoroughfares in a country with one automobile for each three inhabitants. Dominion Automobile Asso- ciation, whose interest in ac- cident -free driving on winter - glazed roads is understandable, offers a time -proven set of rules which will, if adhered to, help guide the motorist through the winter months without mis- hap. 1. Start Gently: To over- come rear wheel sloughing in snow, start slowly; second gear, or even high gear, will fre- quently get a car moving when the usual low gear start only spins the wheels. 2, See and Be Seen: Don't drive with a befogged or snow- covered windshield and win- dows. Don't start to roll until you can see your full circle of visibility. Let others see YOU, by turning on your headlights in the late afternoon, even if it isn't dark. 3. Get the Feel of the Road: Check the braking efficiency of the existing road surface with a light test pressure on the brake. If you slide, reduce speed ac- cordingly. 4. Don't "Tailgate": The generally accepted "car length for each 10 m.p.h." doesn't apply at this time of year. It takes from 3 to 12 times the bare road factor to stop your car on ice and snow. Set up your following distance with this in mind. 5. Brake Before Turns; An- ticipate a reduction in speed and let your engine help you brake for a turn. A fast, right- angle turn on snow can throw you out of control into an "about-face" skid! 6. "Pump" Brakes When Slowing: Don't risk a dangerous skid by sustained brake pres- sure when slowing or stopping. Apply brake in gentle intermit- tent pressures. 7. Carry Traction -Makers: Always carry a shovel, some sand, and tire chains (if you don't have snow tires) in your trunk. Try putting the sand in cardboard milk containers for easy spreading under wheels. 8. Don't Take Car Muffler For Granted: A leaky muffler or exhaust pipe can spell "cur- tains" for you under winter con- ditions. Have the boys at the filling station check these parts every time your car is on the grease rack. 9. Don't Try to Push a Stall- ed Car Out of a Snowbanks Es- pecially if you are over forty! A severe strain on a faulty heart can result from unaccustomed exertion pushing a car out of a snowbank. Better to call a tow truck than an ambulance! 10. Use Your Seat Belts At All Times: Seat belts are par- ticularly valuable in winter type skidding mishaps. Don't drive ANYWHERE without them in place. The truth is that in human service there is no low or high degree; the woman who scrubs is as worthy of respect as the man who preaches. Courage doesn't consist in feeling no fear, but in conquer- ing fear. I say old chaps, it seems that everything stops for tea in England. But what about the English- man, who is snarled up in traf- fic and longing for a cup of that traditional brew? However, in this day and age, he can relax and enjoy his cup of tea right in his own car. British fabricators have in- vented an aluminum tea kettle with a screw -on cap and fold- ing handle --complete with a dashboard plug and socket so that the Englishman need not ' miss his tea, even in traffic jams.
