%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% COAL GAS FUMES FROM STOVE ENDANGER LIFE A chance call is credited with probably saving a Woodvbridge resi- dent from asphyxiation by fumes last Sunday. Mr. Carman Clayton knock- ed at the front door of Mrs. J. C. Brown’s home to see why she hail not arrived at his home for a birth- day celebration. After repeated knocks Mrs. Brown staggered out of the door and collapsed, overcome by coal gas fumes. She was alone in the house and was aroused by the knocking just before becoming com- pletely unconscious. on I,AA “I caught her as she fell face down at the door,” Mr. Clayton said. “The rush of coal gas was suffocat- ing when the door opened.” Dr. Berry, assisted by neighbours, revived Mrs. Brown. The gas is blamed on a leaking stove. fig Hillcrest Beauty Salon In our last issue we stated that at a bazaar held at St. Phillip’s Ang- lican Church a bouquet of flowers was presented to Mrs. A. K. Harr- ington in appreciation of her work for the success of the event. The bouquet presentation was really in- spired by the fact that the day of the supper was also the occasion of Mrs. Harrington‘s birthday. Mrs. Harrington has asked us to make this explanation as she feels that it is not the efforts of one individual, but the co-operation of all the work- ers and patrons which makes for the success of such an event as the St. Phillip’s bazaar.

Do you have the tree on Christmas eve or Christ- mas morning? It seems all wrong to take off its gifts at any other time than the dark early morning- of Christmas itself. Yet there are peoâ€" ple who consider that Santa Claus can only arrive in the candle-lit twi- light, so that visions of sugar plums already seen, as well as those to be found in the stockings at dawn, may dance through the heads of the young- ones. Regular meeting tonight (Thurs- day, Dec. 15) at 6.30 p.m. For fares and services phone near- est C.N.R. agent. Among Christmas memories are years when a household could not afford trimming a tree, and there was no maintlepiece‘ for hanging stockings. Some people might think that a combination to knock merri- ment into a cocked hat! They should have seen the excitement at hanging a stocking from the back of each charir, and the delighted squeals when the children discovered in the morn- ing that Santa had filled the hosiery cheap and the tinsel and holly con- spicuously lacking, only the grownâ€" ups knew it. There was always a box of dom- inoes in somebody’s stocking- and usually Christmas morning was spent in a family game, and it wasn’t al- ways the children who started it! Fathers insist on making popcorn balls Christmas morning and mothers must always fry sausage. So each has a Merry Christmas in his own way! “Children learn to read before they learn to spell.” In fact, they graduate from college before they learn to spell.
