A distressing accident occured last Friday at the farm of William Kerr, Vaughan Township, when Alfred Barâ€" ton aged twenty.four and employed by councillor Robert Dooks while engagâ€" ed in wood cutting operations some how got caught in the shafting and was badly hurt. ‘The unfortunate young man who has been in the emâ€" ploy of Mr. Dooks for but a short time was taking the blocks from the saw with his back to the shafting when some how his clothes caught in the whirling machinery and he was whirl- ed around by the force of the machine. Every stitch of clothing was torn from his body and he was badly cut and: bruised in addition to sustaining a broken leg. He never lost uncom! sciousness through the terrible affair} and he was given medical attention‘ and had his leg set by Dr. Lockhart of‘ King, who afterwards had him removâ€" ed to the Western hospital where ac- cording to latest reports he is making excellent progress.

V9 Vaughan council in regular session on Tuesday afternoon took up in ea‘rn- est the problem of the wholesale deâ€" struction of township roads by early spring traffic. Reeve Robson and every member of the council deplored this annual waste and steps [will be taken to see if an enactment cannot be made which will prevent its recurr- ‘ence year after year. It Was pointed [out that one heavy truck could ruin a lroad which it. took years and thous- ands of dollars to construct. One trip over a road would do ten times the damage of the license fee charge these trucks it- was said and the opin- ion was expressed that it was a poor policy to build roads and then allow them to be torn up during a few weeks in the spring. to to Will Make Effort To Curb Annual Road Destruction The J.W.I. will meet at the home of Miss Annie Avison on Saturday, April Gth, at 2.30 p. m. The roll call will be answered by a pickle recipe and the address of the afternoon will be given by Mrs. I. Graves. tre tlu leessions. He was assured that the jcouncil would consider well the claims of this road this year and that as soon as weather permitted something would be done. Mr, McMurchy warned the council against grading the road and putting the dirt on the centre. He thought it was poor business to bury gravel and especially bad to put sod on the road. Duncan McMurchy appeared asking that some work be done on the King townlinebetween the 6th and 7th conâ€" Legal advice will be securedas the interpretation of existing legislation regarding loading of trucks and if it is not sufficiently effective the council will take steps to memorialize the government to have enabling legislatu ion paSSed whereby the tOWnship may protect its roads. 3 “It has apparently been impossible ‘to mix gasoline and common sense” lsaid Reeve Robson in condemning the practice-of motorists plowing through roads in the early spring. Truck opâ€" erators often operated at an actual loss to themselves and caused hund~ reds of dollars damage to their cars it Was said but in the face of it all the foolish practice continued to the dis- advantage of the township and the people who use the roads. The action of the council should re- ceive the whole-hearted support of the ratepayers of the township who are taxed to keep up the roads and also of every sane motorist who uses the roads. It has long been recognized that traffic on the unpaved roads just as the frost is coming out wrought wholesale destruction. The present legislation limiting certain vehicles to half a load has apparently‘been in_ sufficient to cope with the evil and if stricter enforcement will not take care of the offenders then a new law should be enacted with “teeth” enough to protect the roads of the municipalâ€" [ities. A sheepvclaim of $25 was paid to J. B. Rae, lot 34, con. 3, for one sheep killed by dogs. There was no infor. mation concerning the offending canines. The members of- Vaughan council are to be commended for seriously taking up this question and if they take the lead in the matter of securing better enforcement or better legislaL ion there is no doubt they will have the sincere coâ€"operation of other munâ€"i icipalities. If they succeed they willl have rendered a notable service andl in their effort they should merit the ‘ support of every thoughtful citizen of the Country?
