morning dlp:, The lake was very
rough at'de time and Wetzel and.
his friend,;,3iad swam beyond thei
depth to a sandbar a short distanc
out form shore. Wetzel showed signs
.— of distress and his companion hir-'
ried to latinch. a boat which, proved
impossible wiring to the. high waves. 1
Several high waves passed over the
unfortunate victim and he was swal-
lowed up in the surf. Wetzel, with
his companion, arrived at the Bend
on Saturday evening to spend a few
days at the cottage of Mrs. J. H.

7'O ERECT NEW CHURCH
3.T ele-7X:R XLIA.
The officials of the Centralia
Methodist Church., which burned
down on. August 13th, have lost no
time in making arrangements for the
erection of a new church. The build-
ing will be a complete new structure
on the old site and will be built
something after the plan of the
Brinsley church. The work of tearinghe
down told walls and the cleaning
of the brick Commenced on Monday.
On Wednesday, of last week an archi-
ect from London met the officials
and advised the : building of a new
edifice on account of the walls being
adly smoked and if rebuilt the
wilding at best would be a patched
stair. The congregation met on
Thursday evening and endorsed the
rection of a new structure on the
Id site. It was proposed by some to
onvert the old building into a hall
lowering the walls and fixing it
up, but this did' not -meet with the
pproval of many, especially the
vomen o the t e congregation, who
were deeply attached to the old
'lurch and the site. On Saturday eye-
ing the officials' again met and plans
ere made' for the carrying on of the
ork immediately. A 'building com-
ittee, a finance committee .and a
work committee were appointed. A.
nvass of the congregation for the
ecessary funds to carry on the
ork is being made and the different
omen's organizations in connection
ith the church. are already active
in the raising of funds. It is hoped
that the building will be erected and
finished sufficient to allow the con-
gregation to worship in they base-
nient this coming winter.
SECOND CONSIGNiCENT OF
CATTLE TO OLD COUNTRY
MARKET.

try market was '- made this week.

tralia. Others were loaded along

Parkhill. A. special train of about
forty cars was made up at Stratford
and was shipped straight through

sisted ' of some .740 head of cattle,
space for 720 of whichhas, been se-
cured on the White Star S. S. "The ,
Welshman,". Mr. William Snell has
had charge of the 'shipping atthis
end and Mr. John Colwill at London.
1
The latter willacconipany them to
the OIl Country. This is the largest

,WHO 4S,elt:ESPONSIJ3LR?-
The tragic drowning accident at ;.
Grand Bend on Sunday again recalls
the fact that another life met a wa-
tery grave which -might have' been
saved had some life-saving apparatus
been available. The Grand i3end
beach, fortunately has not had many
drowning accidents and posaibly
for this reason little or no attention
has been paid to the placing of some
life-saving apparatus along the
beach. The last drowning accident at the college to the farm boys of Ontario who fell overseas.
at the Bend, previous to Sunday took
place two years ago when a Parkhill
Boy Scout met a watery grave. At
that time The Times drew attention
to the fact that his life might have
been spared had some life-saving ap-
pliance been available. On Sundayrraxi
last the only thing available on the
beach was a boat and owing to the
high waves it was ' impossible to
launch it, an unsuccessful effort be-
ing made. It is quite probable that
had some rope or lifee belts been a-
vailable,
vailable, young Wetzel's life could
have been saved. With the growing
popularity of Grand Bend as a sum-
mer resort and with the hundreds
that enjoy a dip in the refreshing.
waters of the lake during the sum-
mer months, the village trustees attention:
should make some provision for the
protection of life.
Successful Students
Exeter ,High ,School
The results of the. recent Middle
School Examination as announced by
the Department: of Education reflect
great credit upon both staff and stn,
dents of Exeter High School. Practi-
cally all the third form presented
themselves for the examination` and
as will be seen a large percent=.tge.
were successful. Many of these have.
already intimated their intention of
returning in the fall to continue
their studies in Upper School INVOrk,
for which Exeter. School is now
equipped and many others will no
doubt be induced to obtain their
Secondary Education here by reason
of the continued success of Exeter
High School at the Departmental
examination. The Board of Education
has spared no pains to secure a most
.efficient staff and even better results
may be looked for during the com-
ing year.
The.' following is the standing of

Before this paper reaches you again we expect to be
running at full rate.
We have installed a R:DC]SIVINGG SEs? 1JR.AT0lt.
whichis intended to clean grain that is reasonably- clean,
right from the machine. This will relieve farmers of
cleaning grain intended for sale and, we believe will be
appreciated by then. The system, has been installed so
that the farmer will have his screenings to tale' home
As this will give ns cleaner wheat we expect our offal iii
future will contain less impurities.
None need fear delay as the SEPARATOR. has ,t
- capacity of 500 bushels per hour.
The installation of the SEPARATOR. will not change
our chopping -arrangement as grain for chopping does
- not go through it.
This has entailed considerable expense and we solicit
- your patronage in the sale of your wheat.
During the time the mill has been shut down ,it has
been put in first-class repair and we are looping forward
to a Bahner Year the next twelve months, We shall do
our best by Careful anisprompt attention to business to
merit the esteem and pa'.tronage of our large circle of
friends and. customers.
