JEWELLER Phone 354 Weston $4.00 Shortly after ten o‘clock on Monday morning a T.T.C. car collided with the rear end of a Dominion Chain Store Truck which was endeavouring to make a turn at the corner of John and Main Streets. According to an eyeâ€"witness of the mishap the truckâ€" driver was turning his vehicle and had almost made the turn when the street car smashed into the back of the truck, causing slight damage to it. The front of the street car was smashed in and it was little less than miraculous that noâ€"one was injured by the impact. Witnesses of the acâ€" cident stated that there was plenty of time for the motorman to stop his car as the truck had not turned withâ€" out due warning, but apparently he was too close when he saw it and could not apply the brakes quick enough to avert the crash. Oakes Shoe repairers last week inâ€" stalled a new machine in their shop which will considerably add to their present facilities for mending and reâ€" pairing boots and shoes. This machine is what is known as a metal stitcher, is electrically controlled and. will be a decided asset to the business of Mr. Oakes.

Lecal Students Maintain High Records Set in Former Years by Weston High School Directors‘ Meetings are now being held before the dinner at five o‘clock. Last year Weston pupils won the first and second Carter Scholarships and the Prince of Wales Scholarship. We look among the above students for worthy successors in the years to come. Two Pupils Succeed in Obtainâ€" ing Nine Firstâ€"Class Honors and Others Get Seven The results of the Middle School examinations announced this week show that the Weston High School has maintained the high standard set in former years. The Middle School examination is equivalent to the forâ€" mey Pass Matriculation and in nearly all schools this examination is taken in two parts: three or four papers the first year and the remaining eight or nine papers the year following. In the Weston High School pupils in the 3rd form tried three or four papers and those in the 4th form the remainâ€" ing eight or nine papers. Some individual performances are worthy of note: as followsâ€" 9 first class honors each were won by Joseph Broadbent and Alice Jackson, and 7 first class honors each by Wilâ€" liam Buyers and Sadie Joward, 13 pupils of Form III with 3 firsts each: Bernice Brigham, George Court, Herâ€" bert Ellis, Helen Forbes, Joan Hutchâ€" inson, Gordon Jarrett, May Kellam, Arthur Leitch, Katherine . Nattress, Muriel Nattress, Joyce Scythes, Kenâ€" dall Lee, Louise Smith. Students in 92 per cent, Form 3, wrote on 198 papers and failed in only 17 papers; that As over 91 per cent of the papers written on were passed. When it is remembered that the number of failures in the whole proâ€" vince averages about 25 or 30 perf cent. the high standing of the Weston School is apparent. Students in Form 4, wrote on 394 papers and failed in only 80, which means about 80 per cent. were sucâ€" cessful. ) [ xt _ ROTARY INSTALS NEW MACHINE NNA CHAIN STORE TRUCK NINE FIRSTS AND DYERS There are a few childrens tickets! at this office, the Times & Guide, forl the Exhibition on childrens day, Call| after ten a.m. for them. The first false teeth known to hisâ€" tory were worn by a woman of Sidon, in Phoenica about 300 B.C., accordâ€" ing to Dr. Roy L. Moodie, well known anatomist. _ The Phoenician woman‘s jaw, with the false teeth, is now preserved in the Louvre, in Paris. The two right incisors are representâ€" ed by artificial teeth, held in place and bound to each other by gold wire. The wire has been drawn through careâ€" ful perforations in the artificial teeth, , Although the Egyptians pioneered m treatment of many diseased conâ€" ditions of the body, this sort of dental replacement apparently was never deâ€" vised by Egyptian physicians. Thousâ€" ands of mummies, representing seven thousand years of life in Egypt, have been examined by no clear evidence of such repair work has ever been found. t appears that we not only owe our alphabet and numerous geoâ€" graphic discoveries to the restless, inâ€" quiring minds of the Pheonicians, Dr. Moodie points out, but also we are indebted to them for this entrance inâ€" to proshetics, which is a particularly valuable field of dentistry. Great Tea Drinkers English folks probably lead the world as tea drinkers. Tea was first publicly put up for sale in London in 1651 as a novelty, and fetched 50:. a pound. China tea was almost excluâ€" sively consumed until about 1820, when the plant was accidentally disâ€" covered growing wild in the hillside forests of Assam. From that time Inâ€" dia became the greatest produce rof the tea best suited to the Engliish palate. They are aall teaâ€"drinkers now, and even the "strong silent man" will sip his afternoon cup with grateâ€" fulness, though it was onee considered a very effeminate drink.
