Drag The Roads.

There has been considerable rain
the past few weeks and many of the
country roads are in pretty bad
shape. Every farmer should get out
and drag the roads in his vicinity so
as to get them in good shape before
the ground freezes up. A little drag
ging now will make good roads for
winter, but if they freeze up rough
they will be bad all winter. There
has not been as much dragging this
year as usual and the result has
been that the roads are quite rough.
Won't you do little dragging right
now?

AUTO TURNED TURTLE
Will Cartwright jr. CAUGHT Under
the Wrecked Car, His Ear Near
" Torn off, and Bruised Up.

An auto accident which might
have proven very serious but 1or-
tuately resulted in only one person
being painfully injured, occurred on
the Brush Creek HILL five miles east
of Leon last Sunday evening about
5 o'clock, when Fred Judd's Ford
skidded and turned completely up
side down, while running at good
speed. The car had been loaned by
Mr.. Judd to Clarence Cartwright
who was just learning to drive a
car. In the car we're his uncle, WIN
Cartwright jr. and Fred Ellison.
The men had started to come 10
Leon and when coming down the
long hill near the farm OF L. "A.
Jackson the car skidded on the mud.
dy road and turned turtle. All OF
the occupants were thrown out OF
the car except Will Cartwright, VINO
was caught under the overturned
car and quite badly cut up and
bruised, his right ear being nearly
torn off, his shoulder badly bruised
and he received other bruises about
the body, but none of the injuries
are of serious nature, although
Mr.. Cartwright is pretty stiff and
sore. That some of the occupants
was not killed is little less than
miracle. The car was damaged
some, the front axle being bent, the
windshield broken and one door
torn OF, but the engine was not IN
jured and runs as smooth as ever.
The car was brought to Leon by
Harry Wright and he will soon have
it in running order again. DR.. Lay
ton was telephoned for and went out
and dressed Mr.. Cartwrights ear,
and ho ia getting along nicely.

Examine The Records.

1t is being charged that the pres

Patrick Griffin is a member, has been
extravagant in expending the

that the following is the total
amount of county bridge warrants
issued by the board during the past
four years. And remember that
Patrick Griffin went on the board

Every time that the world adjusts itself to new laws some vandal comes around and smashes the theories on which the laws were based. For sey- eral years we were all satisfied that we were verging on senile decay at forty years of age. and that the only proper place for us at fifty was the tomb. Thus Osler taught and thus the world believed. Executives of big businesses talked learnedly of the value of young men and the worth lessness of elderly ones.
 And now comes a theorist in En- gland who declares that man is young at sixty years: and reaches maturity at seventy years; that he ripens rapidly after that time, until from eighty to ninety he is found at his best The new lord mayor of London. who is eighty -one. and the leader of the unionist party. who is eighty six years old. are cited as good examples.-Ex.
