All members of the Senate committees which killed the bill were men from the big cities.

Twister Strikes Orleans County About 6:30 Friday evening a twister blew out of Lake Onta- rio at the rate of 75 miles an hour leveling barns, cottages, trees and power lines. The twister first struck the county at Point Breeze where cot- tages and trees were damaged. Blowing from the northwest, it struck with terrific force at this summer resort, levelling one cot- tage and damaging several others. The cottage destroyed was on the lake shore and lumber was strewn for 200 feet along the lake. The porch on the Charles Patten cot- tage was torn off by the force of the wind as if done by carpen- ters. Traveling In a southeasterly di- rection the storm next struck the Ridge Road where at least three barns were flattened. The large gable roof on the farm of T, Ray- mond Snyder was levelled as was the barn directly across the road. A barn on the Edgar Wells farm a few hundred feet to the east was destroyed. A number of cows and horses were imprisoned in this latter structure and the Al- bion fire department was called to assist in their removal .Trees and power lines along the historic Ridge Road were blown down and fruit and other crops suffered tions of the county but Medina vli- severely. Rain fell in some sec- lage escaped both wind and rain, Man Accused of Leaving Accident Arrested in Locfcport by Detec- tive Sergt Benjamin Furlong and Plainclothes Officer Joseph Miller on a charge of leaving Qie scene of an automobile accident, Charles ., - ,-.«,..«:„ TOk „,„„ „,, aur Pritchard, 25 years old, of Medina, Motes farm „ potato, growers ^J^S^^^S^JS^- zance Sunday by Police Judge Ar- thur F.

Alfs Gives Fine Travel Talk Following the customary Rotary luncheon last Tuesday afternoon at the Walsh House, a very in- teresting address was delivered to the assembled members by Mr. George H. Alfs, of Burlington, Iowa. Mr. Alfs described a cruise that he took several years ago from this country to Europe, sailing through the Straights of Gibralter down to the Bay of Naples by the Mediterranean. In a very col- orful and picturesque manner, he portrayed the beauty of the Near politan Harbor with the crater of Mt. Vesuvius in the distance con- tinually emitting smoke. From Na- ples Mr. Alfs made the famous Malfi Drive along the Mediterran- ean, visiting the town of Pompeii, which was buried by an eruption of Mt Vesuvius in 79 A. D., and also the beautiful islands of Cor-' rento and Capri, the latter famous for its blue grotto cave. Mr. Alfs concluded his speech with a brief description of St. Peter's Church in Rome and the Vatican Palace,' which, unfortunately for his audi-' ence, had to be somewhat curtailed on account of the time. His speech was greatly enjoyed by all the members of the Club and it is sin- cerely hoped that we may have another opportunity of hearing Mr. Alfs when he visits Medina again.

New and Modern Type Face Used The Western Newspaper Union, America's oldest and largest Newspaper Syndicate, and pub- lisher of \The Publishers' Auxil- iary/' which goes to over 15,000 printjng plants-every Week, has. announced the< adoption of a rtcw 1 type face which is clean, sharp, legible, and streamlined for today. The new type face is Excelsior, and is the same face which we have been using in The Medina Tribune for nearly a year, it hav- ing been adopted last fall at the time our new multiple-magazine Linotype took the place of the old two-magazine machine. In speaking of its new type face, The Western Newspaper un- ion says: \New developments, new de- signs—bringing improvements over the old! That's the order of the day, in type faces as well as in railroad trains and automobiles. Western Newspaper Union leads the way, on behalf of the thous- ands of newspapers it serves, by adopting the most modern of type faces—a face which provides the greatest measure of jcyc-camfort and makes reading a distinct pleasure. Several new faces, all similar i in their characteristics, have recently been developed. From W* gmvp WNtr has chosen Excelsior by Mergenthaler. \This step is imoortant It is in «ne- with H?NCJ*S policy of constant Improvement in its fea- ture msteriai mi in the mm* Subscribe for the Media*.

With one exception all were fe* gra*s fires which S timed so rapidly because of the ry spell as to endanger prorMtrty. Two alarms came in so cjosjs to- gether, it was necessary 'to divide the department up to take care of them. While returning from these another alarm called them to a grass fire on Meade AvenUe.
