HEAVY TRAFFIC OVER WEEK-END re Hundreds of Shriners [Mass Through Bow- manville Shriners and more Shriners seem- to throng the highway over tle week-end and if any person in Bow- manville did not know what « Shriner looked like before they had énough opportunity to view one of these personages over Sunday. All day Saturday and all day Sunday a continual line of trafic wended its way westward to the Queen City for the big celebrations and it is re- markable that there weren't any ser ious accidents. There were however, three accidents reported to the po- lice during the week-end one of which is reported in full on page three of this issue while the other two were just minor affairs with little damage. On Saturday afternoon a bus was stamding on the side of the road on King Street East and a Sinclair oil truck was endeavouring to pass but before it could made it a car came out Hop another street right fn front and the truck was forced to pull up immediately. In doing so it forced cars behind to pull up sharp- ly miso and then backing up =a little the truck struck a new Durant Coupe snd smashed the front fender and the light. This was purely ac- cidental and no krrests were made. "The other accident was siso a minor Jone and little damage wag done, Other features of the week-end were the huge crowd at the Cream of Barley Camp which must have maide warm the hearts of Mr, Mor- den who has laid the park out for the convenience of both trowsfolf and tourists. Everybody makes good use of the camp anyway and all ave a good time whilé there. The fire department received no calls over the week-end not even the customary false alarm but were allowed to spend their holiday in peace.
