Mr. James Davidson, miller at Feversham, received a very serious injury while playing football in the tournament there on Saturday. In the scrimmage he was kicked in the stomach by a player in the CoUing- wood Scottish team. The injury was not thought much about for the time and Mr. Davidson went on playing until forced to stop by the pain. He was driven to his residence in a motor and Dr. Guy of Maxwell at- tended him. It was later found that a severe internal injury had been received. On Sunday an operation was decided on for a perforation of the bowels, and this was performed by Dr. McFaul of CoUingwood, Dr. Guy of Maxwell and Dr. Carter of Dundalk.

SHELDON MYERS Builder and Contractor SHINGLES AND FLOORING LAID ALL KINDS OF REPAIR WORK Oil Truck Struck Car Broadside-Nobody Hurt Three In Coupe When It Was Struck Monday Afternoon Mr. Frank Bunt of the Bank of Montreal went through an experience on Monday afternoon that we venture to aay he would not care to have re- peated. He, with his two sisters, had been down to the mill pond in his coupe, and was coming out the trail from the planing factory on to the street, when just as he passed out the big Hanover oil truck, which had been serving dealers in town, bore down on him. The driver of the truck applied the emergency and had his truck pretty well slowed up, but not sufficient to prevent a collision The coupe was struck broadside and fender and body crushed in. One tire was destroyed, axle bent and other damage incurred, but fortun- ately the coupe did not turn over, thereby avoiding what might easly have been a fatality. At the point where the accident occurred the ap- proaches are hidden by rising ground and it is a point of real danger to drivers coming out from the mill. The driver of the coupe should con- gratulate himself that there was not a fatal ending to this accident. Some Sunday Accidents Car Turned Cow Over Three Times On County Road A couple of accidents occurred in this vicinity on Sunday both of which proved fatal to the cars only, the occupants getting off without injury. A car driven by a couple of Mark- dale young men ran over a culvert bet-w^een Rock Mills and Maxwe'fl. The car must have been going at con- siderable speed as it coursed along the ditch for three or four rods, over sticks and logs, before it brought up aganst a stump, which stopped it effectively. The front of the car was serously damaged. Leonard Alcox of the Orange Valley came into contact with a cow Sunday night. He had been at religious services at Rock Mills and coming home there were several cars ahead which raised clouds of dust in the night air. A mile or so east of Flesherton he noticed a cow crossing the road and slowed up to let her pass. Cows have the right of way (probably why they are called bossy) but not the right to be in the way. However, this cow safely passed the danger point and Mr. Alcox stepped on the gas to proceed and ran full tilt broadside into a second cow which could not be distinguished owing to its color and the dust. Leonard says he bowled the cow over twice before she came to a stop, and judging by the car one can easily believe it, for the radiator was completely destroy- ed, also the left fenders and lamp bracket. We believe the cow was not seriously damaged, but she probably had the scare of her young life. Oil Tanks Have Been Built A Ceylon The British-American Oil Company have built an oil station at Ceylon for the convenience of the dealers in this district, and will have it in opera- tion in a week or ten days. The cement work was under the super- vision of Mr. Thos. Lever of Flesh- erton. Messrs. Down & Sons have sold the company a tank deUvery truck and Mr. Jas. Hales of town has been engaged to run it, his duties to commence on Monday. Down's gar- age has erected two filling stations and will carry both grades of the Britishâ€"American gasoline. Flesherton, Ont Killed In Street Car Accident At Winnipeg Was A Brother Of W. Moore Of Flesherton i Mr. Will Moore of town received the sad intelligence last week that his youngest brother, Joseph Moore, had been killed in a street railway accident at Winnipeg. The unfor- tunate man had run a car out to a club house and ran - into an open switch, which threw him off the car, he alighting on his bead. He re- mained unconscious for some little time, but death ensued. The deceas- ed gentleman was 50 years of age unmarried. He was born in Nor- manby township, a few miles from Durham, and went West 25 years . ago. For a long time he had been employed on the Winnipeg street ' railway. ] A sister, Mrs. Jamees Norris of i Lancer, Sask., accompanied the re- 1 mains home. Mr. Will Moore met his sister in Toronto on Sunday and brought her home with him. The funeral took place to the family bur- ial ground in Normanby on Tuesday of this week. : The Winnipeg Evening Telegram of Aug. 20 says: Joseph Moore, 45 years old, motorman, the oldest em- ! ployee of the Winnipeg Electric com- i pany, in pont of service, died at 6.10 , a.m. to-day in the Winnipeg general hospital from injuries received at 7.25 p.m. Tuesday, in a street car col- lision at the intersection of the St. Charles line and the spur on the St. Charles Country Club. He was hurl- ed through the front of the car by the force of the impact, his skull was ' fractured, inducnig severe cerebral hemorrhage, and he died without re- gaining consciousness. The cause of i the accident is attributed to an open switch at the junction of the two i lines. The ear which Mr. Moore was operating struck the switch, ran up on the spur, telescoped a car stand- ing on the line to the club, and car- | ried it back 75 yards. No passengers ; were in either car. | Mr. Moore was 45 years of age.

R. NO. 3. Proton Station. Old Principal Of Public School Visits Us Again The Advance had a pleasant call one day last week from Mr. and M-s. J. E. ifawcett and daughter, Joy, and Mrs. Joy, of Toronto. Mr. Fawcett was principal of Flesherton public school nineteen years ago, and after j leaving here took the principalshi,^ of the Norway school, which, under , his guidance, has became one of the : best schools in Toronto. After leav- | ing here he married Miss .A.nnie Joy, I the youngest of the Joy sist*s. so widely known as singers of great ability and charm. Her daughter, ; Miss Joy, now a young lady of seven- ! teen, inherits her mother's vocad and musical ability to a marked degree, and has been very successful in her studies. We were indeed delighted to renew acquaintances after these nineteen years. The family have a summer cottage on Lake Simcoe and ran up to see old friends here. Ready Money WHEN the Dominion of Canada Loan was offered to the public in October, 1923, most of the $200,000,000 worth of bonds were ptir- chased in a few daTS. This investment was eagerly desired by everyoneâ€" but was secured by those who had ready money. Ready money shows foresight and determination, the two most important qualities necessary for success.
