see if his young brother had been hurt
and finding him practically uninjured he
went over to a nearby tree, where he
lay down-as he was shaken up and
bruised. A few minutes later he went
back to his home in the watercure build

George Bishop, who was doing some
work in front of the Pellet K Skinner
office saw the accident and went imme-

he wasn't hurt.
The Ford was badly damaged. The
left rear wheel was completely smashed;
both mudguards We're bent. the wind
shield broken, the top torn off, the front
axle bent and other parts were bent and
broken. A repair truck from the Rob
erts garage towed the car away for re-
pairs.
nssEA large number of people went to the
spot before the car was towed away and
commented on the popularity of the
accident and the good fortune of the
little boy in escaping what seemed like
sure death. While the car was being
prepared for its journey to the repair
shop Stanley Juscen was an interested
spectator from the window of his home,
from which point he could see the dam

down which he went
Mrs. Juscen, when seen by a ReforIner

was in bed and complained of injuries to
his legs. DIR. B. z. White was sent for
and attended TO the young mans injuries.

Mobiles to Grow SunfIowers.

Sunflowers. indigenous to several parts
of the United States, are to be taken up
by the English aristocracy Next year,
they probably will be growing on the
estate of the Earl of Strafford. and, nod
ding their free American heads over the
hedge rows, will look British noblemen
in the eye.
The Earl of STAFFORD was one of q
party of members of the British parlia-
ment visiting Canada. While in Calgary.
he was taken to farm near Strathmore
where he witnessed the harvesting of the
sunfiower crop.
The earl, an extensive farmer and
stockraiser, was so impressed with the
value of sunfiowers as silage for winter
feed thaa he announced his intention of
introducing them into England and giving
them a trial next year on his estate.

Why He,s called .Rest Mann

The expression 'best man. as used
relative to weddings is a survival of the
ancient days of marriage by capture,
when the bride was secured as the result
of raid on the part of the bridegroom.
In this he was assisted by his friends,
who sailed out with him.
The .'bride-knights," as the grooms-
men were originally called, were still
considered important people at any we'd
ding long after the custom of marriage
by capture had ceased in civilized coun-
tries. and their job consisted of escort
ing the married people from the church
to their new home This escort was not
symbolieal but was a necessary protec-
ton against robbers.
The senior groomsman was of course
the best man, or best friend of the BRIDE
groom, and today he alone of the bride
knights retains his Office.

situation by forcing some inhabitants to
move to nearby towns. The police plan
to rid the city of thousands of men and

where.
A total of $4,000 students have come
into the city, attracted by the educa-
