Motoring to Parry Sound on timber business with his son James, the car severed into a post and with the great impact, Mr Baird severely cut his face and dislocated his hip bone. He was taken unconscious to Barrie hospital where he has suffered severely. His injury was aggravated owing to the fact the hip dislocation was not discovered until ten days after the accident, when an xâ€"ray revealed the true source of suffering. Mrs Baird is with her husâ€" band at the hospital and it is expected some time will elapse before the patient can be removed to his home in Toronto.

The most important business beâ€" fore Monday Town Council meeting, was the striking of the rate, and that it is to be 43 mills, three mills lower than last year, will gratify the rateâ€" payers generally. _ The reduction is almost entirely accounted for by _ reâ€" duced school estimates, both high and public, the school rate having dropâ€" ped 2%% mills alone. Other rates are almost ail similar to last years. The Council and school boards are to be congratulated on financing to show a reduction, while many other towns have an ascending rate.

Elora was minus three or four of their regular team, and consequently the game wasn‘t as closely fought as was anticipated. Elora have won their district and will probably be Durham‘s first semiâ€"final opponents. The football match, Holstein vs. Markdale was won by the latter 2â€"0. Yet the game was not: oneâ€"sided to look at. In fact Holstein had the ball apparently under control most of the time. but a kind of sheer illâ€"luck attended them. A very heavy shower on Sunda,\f’ev- ening gave hopes that Monday might be fair to encourage the Hospital Civic Holiday of that day. But Monâ€" day broke wet and lowering, giving little or no promise of betterment, and though there was no downpour there wasn‘t an hour up to 5 p. m that it did not sprinkle more or less. However the promise of ®@ fine proâ€" gram, and loyalty to the Hospitai idea brought such numbers out that a "gate" of $416 was realized whicn was good under the circumstances. The committee at the close of the day felt good for another reason $9 they had carried out their program and the crowd left with a satisfied feeling that bodes well for the nextl one.

First eight subjects give Middle school standâ€" ing and last four (languages) as well, give Matriculation. Many had passed some subjects last year thus did not write on same this year. As it is a two year course, quite a number this year wrote on all or nearly all the subjects, and as they are through in all passed, they will have only the subjects failed on to write next year. Though but? or 8 have passed in all subjects written, the school and staff have ~made a good showing, as many have been successful in passing most of the required subjects, and the number thus through is considâ€" erably higher than was recommended by the staff.
