?•"' WEDNESDAY, MAY 11, 1927 THE PLESHERTeN ADVANCE UGHTNING KILLS SWINE. It ia early to report thunder stomn and damage by lightning, but on Wednesday last a storm of short dur> ation passed over Stouffville to the east, travellinic with a terrific wind. Lightning struck the bam of Fred Johnston, on the 9th concession of Pickering, four miles from Stouffville killing six pigs weighing over 100 pounds each, and stunning three more that have not been normal since. liiiiiiniiittii The hog pen is beneath one of the barns, and the bolt struck the light- ning rod, running down the side of the bam. The hogs were lying a- gainst the stone wall on the inner side from which the rod passes down to the earth, and it 'appeared to have electrified the stonework to do the damage to the swine. The build- ing was none the worse and the pigs gWere covered by insurance, ot which jMr. Johnston will collect two-thirds value of his total loss. PreM Association Meets The Wellington and Dufferin Press Association will meet in Mount For- est on Friday of next week A large attendance is expected. There will be forenoon and afternoon sessions and The Confederate will entertain its confreres at luncheon at the Empress Hotel, in commemoration of its dia- mond jubilee, and of the silver jubi- lee of the present editor. The invi- tation was given and accepted at Shelbume last June.

However, there has been added to the roster of the club a former player, who will bolster the chances of the locals for another championship pennant, in the person of John Dow. who starred with the team when they came home with the cup in 1925. Frank Betts at third, Lloyd Wauchope at second. Manager A. C. Muir at short and the big boy. Ken Boyd, at first will again perform in the infield. Len Alcox, who won the cup by his timely clouting in the final game last year, will be available for mound duty. Sparks and Thurs- ton are again available for the outfield and there are several prospects to fill the vacancy in centre field. We may look forward to another good year in baseball here. An organization meeting of the club has been called for Thursday evening of this week at 8 o'clock, when all those interestd in the welfare of the team are requested to attend and lend their support to the boys in their quest for more baseball honors.
