(WEDNESDAY, JULY 12, 1038 THE I'I.ESHERTON ADVANCE Cop Had Real Chase On Saturday last a Nt'w York car stai-ted to burn up the highway north of Durham and was covcrinB the miles so quickly that Traffic Officer Hood, who took after him at the north end of town, had to run to Chatsworth before he was able to overhaul him. The machine, a Packard 12, is said to have Konc throuRh Dornoch at 80 miles an hour and pulled through Chatsworth at a mere (55 miles an hour. Despite the dust in its wake Officer Hood made the 20 mile.s from Durham to the northern villaprc in something les^ than 14 minutes, fin- allly overhauling his man and ases.s- ing him $25 for his escapade. For some time the officer was doubtful if he could catch him. The ownei of the car, a Buffalo doctor, paid the assessment. A day or so later the s-ame car came back through Durham and was trailed south by the traffic officer, but when stopped said he was cured of .• peeding and was doing ex- actly .'iS miles an hour to the bordei â€" and home. â€" Mt.

Duncan Phone 54 - - - FLESHERTON Large Crowd At Rock Mills Garden Party A splendid crowd attended the Roek Mills garden party on l''riday evening and enjoyed a fine supper, sjiorts and evening proKrani presented under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid of Rock Mills Baptist church. A same ol football was |)layed in Geo. Johnston's field hotvvcen Kiesherton and KuRenia teams and re.sulted in a win for Flesh- erton by the sjorc 2-0. The evening concert in the church shed was feat- ured by a play "'All in the Family" by tho Dundalk Anglican younfr people and much favorable comment was heai'd. Prof. Kyle's orchestra from Maple Valley provided excellent music between act.^ and Mr. Geo. Akitt ren- dered an excellent solo. Rev. W. J. Scott of Flesherton presided in the absence of Rev. J. R. Wolsteneroft, the pastor, who is ill. The proceeds of the garden party amounted to $69.89. The next ^Wting of the Ladies' Aid will be held at the home of Mrs. Richard Allen on Wednesday, July 19th. It is not recorded who first said "A little nonsense now and then is relished by the best of men." But whoever it was, he might with equal accuracy have observed that a great deal of nonsense is relished at any time by most men. In business or pleasure, a laugh is as hungrily sought as anyth'ing else that may be on the program. The business of living is involved in so many hard- ships and worries that the most trivial nonsense helps to make life brighter and better. It has been said that a sense of humor is a saving grace; but no two people seem to have the same sense of humor. Perhaps the best is that which enables one to sec enough of the funny side of the ex periences of life; tragic as some of them are, to laugh his way through difficulties and to perceive the laugh- able side of the thing when fate drives h^m through the briar patches. â€" Moncton Transcript. Mr. an Mrs. Robt. Bellamy of Cold- water are visiting the former's par- ents at present. The matter of the wheat acreage limitation for the next year is being discussed by those countries which raise large quantities of this com- modity.

""The telephone saved my corn" Early in the season, Fred Ben- nett noticed a strange blight on his young cotn. It began to spread very rapidly. He had to do something at once if he want- ed a crop. Fred was enterprising. He call- ed the government Exper im e nt al Farm by Long Distance tele- phone. The farm recognized the blight from Fred's descrip- tion, told him what to do, and in a week the corn was safe.
