KIDS KEEP OFF
Contributed

AT a recent meeting OF the Cam
ulos Club different members wer,
giving narrowing experience.
they had suffered while driving a
car. Most of these concerned
children playing on highways and
roads of the island.
1t was the coucensus OF opinion
that something should be done
about it so it was decided that a
warning reminder to parents
should be published.
1t is understood that all COED
mothers warn their children 10 be
careful of ears, but anyone who
drives a car will testify that they
do not all heed the warning.
The highway is no place for
games such as hop
scotch, etc, and no matter how at
tractive for slide it might be. a
mn sloplng across pubhc road
is no fit coasting place.
Everyone who drives a car is
watching near school building
for the unexpected appearance of
a child in the road, but one is not
always prepared for such a sight
in other places.
Mothers, wont you please give
each child an extra caution about
ears, and warn them never to step
in front Of car, with arms wav-
ing, jumping first one way AMI
then another, daring the driver to
harm them. This is a very usual
circumstance we assure you.
Let us take heed to this notice
before some terrible accident hap
pens, rather than after.

TWO BOYS DROWNED
OFF LISABEULA DOCK
Five Are Saved From Watery
Grave by Heroic Efforts
OF Rescurers

Sunday was a tragic day for the
community of Lisabeula, for on
the afternoon of that day the wa
tiers of the Sound extinguished the
life of two young men and threat
ened five others, who were rescued
The two who perished were Don
aid Williams and Clifford Beau
mont. The five who were rescued
were Anna Belle Dyer. Carilee and
Bill Wiseman, brother and sister,
Lucille Baker and Donald Sneal
lie. OF the number saved, Don
aid Smeallie had his leg broken,
Bill Wiseman had a severe face
cut, and Anna Belle Dyer was the
last TO be resuscitated, but under
the able work of young Newton
Billiard she was finally brought
back from the dim shadows into
which she had so suddenly enter
ed.
1t appears these seven young
people were in a Dodge automo-
bile and were driving to the dock
TO meet the boat that was to
carry some Of them back to the
city, and the driver of the car was
not familiar with the gearing
and instead of the car responding
according to the will Of the driver
ii went in the opposite direction,
and off the dock into the cold wa
terS of the Sound many feet below.
The ear upturned and only for
the quick aid of some of the by
ISLANDERS the entire party would
have drowned. II seems i. G.
Bedford was the outstanding hero,
as he plunged into the water and
did most Of the rescue work, being
assisted by the merchant, Mr.
Adams who had boat at hand 10
carry them to shore.
Funeral services were held at
the Lisabeula church on Wednes-
day afternoon and were very
largely attended The services
were IN charge Of Reverends Ward
and Howard. The two bodies
were buried side by side in the Is
land cemetery.
