BOYS ARE INJURED
Oliver klossner and Francis st. Onge
Suffer Severe Injuries in Sunday
Accident

Oliver klossner. aged ii years,
and Francis st. Onge, nine years of
age. were seriously injured Sunday
when their bicycle cOllded with
the truck bringing the mail from the
station and driven by Harry Doug
las The boys were coming down
Main street, following closely behind
an autombile, which shut off their
view of the street intersection. The
automobile in front of them turned
the Alder street corner quickly 80
avoid a collision with the truck, COM
ing down that street, but the boys
were unable to make the turn in
time and crashed into the front of
the truck, which had been brought
practically to standstill.
The Klossner boy, the most seri-
ously injured of the two, suffered a
broken right shoulder and several
fractured ribs, but yesterday was
resting easily and on the road to
early recovery. The st. Onge boy
was severely cut and bruised about
the face and head and for time
it was feared that his skull was
fractured. Examination disclosed the
fact that there were no broken
bones, however. Both boys were I'M
conscious when picked up after the
accident and following the admins
tration of first aid measures down
town were taken to the hospital.
Both were able to leave the hospital
for their homes this week.
Bystanders state that the accident
WAS entirely unavoidable, blame at
taching to neither the driver of tbs
truck nor the boys themselves But
for the fact that Mr.. Douglass set his
brakes and slowed the truck aim lost
to a standstill before the bicycle
struck it, both boys would probably
have been run over and killed

an effort to overcome the shortage
of qualified herdsmen due to the war.

sent these courses in an effort to de-
yelop herdsmen as war necessity.

ing of the present school year on May

tinue for six weeks.

Ders OF the chamber were present for
the festivities, the memb ers of the

drive that netted the chamber TIA
new members playing host to the los
ers in manner that caused the
guests to cringe with remorse and

tain Robert NeilI.

able manner, choosing especially fit
ting Introductory remarks for each
| speaker with the possible exception
OF President Thorpe) The program
was opened by a. II. McClaskey, cap
tain of the winning team, whose sub
| Ject was How We Did It." Captain
McClaskey claimed that efficient or
ganization, excellent personnel and
| hard work had triumphed in the big
contest, but this argument was refut-
ed by Captain Robert Neill of the
! losers, who claimed that his men had
succumbed to intrigue and trickery,
claiming that the winners had robbed
| the banks of the tWo-year-olds to get
| the necessary dollars for the infant
membership and that the wives of
the members of Captain McClaskeys
team had been beguilcd into joining
the club and making possible vic
tory for the opponents through fear
of the possible effect of their refusal.
William Goodyear took up the cud-
| gel of the winners with flow of or
atory and wealth of pertinent
stories that contained everything but
evidence of fair means on the part
of the winners or foul methods en-
ployed by the losers. President E.
w. Thorpe, a member of the losing
side, came yaliantly to the assistance
of his fellow martyrs with volley
of truths that left no doubt as to the
final judgment of the case on its
N erits.
Just to put the finishing touches
on a job well done, Lee Allen, J. N.

vide a lifetime of torture for the OPP
pressors by making lasting their

adopted in their mad attempt to keep
from spending a dollar apiece for the
