That is the information. we have recch ed from Reeve Hunt of Bentinck. The bridge will be of the slab-top kind and it is expected. from. the condi- tion of the roadway at the place the bridge is erected that the road will have to be ‘closed While the building operations are in progress.

Firth went to Orangeville Tuesday morning to see his son, Mr. Harry Firth, who is in the hospital at that place. Harry is the goalkeep- er for the ()rangeville seniors and is rated one of the best in the business. In the game at St. Catharines on Monday afternoon. he went out of his nets to check one of the Opposing team and when. the two players col- lided both were knocked out and had to be caried oil' the 'tleld. It was at first reported that Harry’s leg had been broken, but we learn later that it was a “turned" ankle that he had received. He will likely be confined1 to the hOSpital for a week or so. In the case of Mr. Bell they have put themselves to the expense of one stamp valued at 25 centimes. as well as paper and an envelope, all to no purpose.
