With a flare that lighted the sky for a long distance, an automobile carrying Lawrence Seabrook and his two brothers and cousin, the latter, Reing Miss VanAlstyne, all of See- ley's Bay, turned turtle and burned up on Saturday might about 9.30 o'- clock on the Kingston's Mills road near the foot of Tuttle's hill. The four were coming to the city from Seeley's Bay, intending to re- turn later in the night to their home. The weather was slightly cold for driving and the side curtains of the car had been put into place, completely enclosing the passengers, Mills the back tire developed a leak and a temporary patch was put on. This didnot hold and a second stop had to be made. A lantern was in 'the car and was left lighted in case a third stop would have to be made. When the driver, Lawrence Sen~ brook .was speeding up for the hill 'he is supposed to have struck a hole in the road, which twisted his axle stifficlently to bend one of the radius rods. This threw the car completely out of control. The automobile swayed from one side to the other and when it reached a point directly} opposite Potter's barn it went into the deep ditch and turned turtle with the four wheels sticking up in the air. The four passengers were caught under the car but all had a miracu- lous escape, although Lawrence Sea- brook was severely burned about the hair and hands. The lantern started the fire which within a very few minutes complete- ly eonsumed every inflammable part of the car. The gasoline tank did not explode fortunately. The car was such a wreck that the four people left it on the road and came to the city. Miss Van Alstyne is a daughter ot A. Van Alstyne, an employee of the Anglin Bros' garage. ABOUT PTE J. 0. WAGER Chaplains at Seaford Doing Good Work Among Soldiers, Mrs. J, Overton Wager, Enterprise, has received a letter from Major A. D. Corbett, senior chaplain, Canas dians, Seaford and Capt. W. H. Wood supervisor of the Y M.C.A., Seaford Area. The letter reads; "You will interested to know that Pte. J. O. agar, 6th Reserve Bat- talion, has attended the religious ser- vices conducted by Rev. W. A. Cam-~ eron, Toronto, a has signed one of the decision cards, This voluntary act on his part will indicate one of two things either that he has decid- ed to become a follower of Christ, or having already made that decig- fon, he has expressed a desire to take a forward step in the service of Christ's Kingdom, This letter is be- ing sent at his own request." TO INVEST IN VICTORY LOAN. Queen's &. M. S. Is Tp Help In the Campaign, At the meeting of the Alma Mater Society of Queen's University on Sat- urday night a committee appointed at the last meeting to ascertain if an election poll could be established at the university, reporfed that only Ontario students could vote in this city. A conference with Principal Gordon elicited the information that a move was about to be made to have examinations held one week earlier. _ William Embury was appointed sec- ond vice-president of the society. A notice of motion has been given that $500 be invested in the Victory Loan . This constitutes the reserve fund of the society. An election committee consisting of Messrs. M. Boe; H. B. Welsh, J. M. Hazlett, McKillop, T. P. Love and A. R. Garrett was appointed, : Alverton H. Aseltine, The Economist of Baltimore, Md., 'has this to say about a former Kings- onian: Alverton H.

TAKE TO MILITARY SERVICE Transferring Farms to Base a Claim For Exemption--Should Exempt All Farmers. The Whig has commenced to hear some of the many expressions of opinion and pleas for exemption which are being made in the no#th country. These people are not liv- ing under the same educational con- ditions as the city and therefore do not take the world conditions in the same light. AM seem to thoroughly understand that the war must be won but many prefer to have others.to the winning for them. One lady, an old resident of a place north of Sharbet Lake, said to one of "he members of the tribunal, "Do you knew what I think. I say that every pool room in the cities should closed. Every moving picture theatre should be stopped, except maybe to men in khaki. Then if you exempt all the farmers Canada would be able to do its part in the war." There is great scrambling through the country to have every farmer working "his own" farm, One case developed by cross examination showed that an eleven year-old boy owned a farm. This came to light when a farmer made the statement that hig 1,000 acres was divided in- to three farms, each of which was owned by one of his sons. The transfer had been made about ten years ago, according to the father's statement. This would bring the twenty-one year old man the posses- sor and worker of some 350 acres when he was only eleven years old. There are cases where the far- mer should be exempt. Perhaps not enough consideration is shown. There are many cases however, Where the attempts to "duck" the draft have to be exposed.
