Of this number, 889 were Canadian cars and 512 American. By these figures it is appar- ent that the Americans are not so anxious to visit Canada as the Canadians are to come here, perhaps because people on this side became quite familiar with the land of the maple leaf dur- ing the prohibition era. During this month the heavi- est day's traffic was on June 3rd when 37£ cars crossed the span; 118 American; 2 54 Canadian, June 6th, there was the least traffic, a total of 48; 34 Ameri- can; 14 Canadian.

Of course, not all Ameri- cans even during the dry era, went to Canada, because it was wet, but to tour and enjoy the scenery, of a beautiful country. -. „,., ,„ T , T . „ brother and sister-in-law, Mr. and had spent a few days with the^ J»r. and Mrs. Joseph Kelly on Mrs. John Almond, —Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Kelly former's parents, Mr. and Mrs. I*.

Two of the cars owned respectively by a Mr, Montroy of Moira and Mr. Lavigne of the Rafcquette were badly damaged and some of the occupants re- ceived minor lacerations and bruises. According to reports, the Mon- troy car was going toward Mo- ira; and Lavigne was coming into Bombay. They met at the front of the M. E. parsonage where Rev. Kirkness' car was parked at the side. The latter's machine was damaged very lit- tle in the resulting smashvtp. Troopers were called and vestigated the mishap. Another auto which figured in the accident is reported to have left the scenefollowing th< collision. pasture land- whicn had I suffered enormousy I terkiil. Many of the farmers of this north country irere on the downward path to financial ruin and their large stocks were facing starvation during the . eeming fall and winter. Today, one week later, condit- ions have taken on a different hue and although Mr. Farmer is not yet out of his economic dil- emma, he is wearing a smile. Milk prices have taken a jump which will mean approximately 40 cents additional that he will receive^er hundred weight. The heavy rains of the latter part of the week have saved his grain and corn crops and 'will materially help his hay and pasturage. According to some local farm* ers, the hay crop although it ? has nearly reached maturity, may yet grow a little but it can Jiardly be expected to attain last year's peak. Farmers here may consider themselves much better iff than in many localities to the south and downstate where the Tops are doomed. - PRESBYTERIANS ENJOY CHILDREN'S DAY PROGRAM Children's Day was observed Sunday at €h e Presbyterian church and an excellent program was given by the young folks.
