Tiiuraton Kclltor TRUTH BEFORE FAVOR- PRINCIPLES. NOT MEN ARE WE LOYAL CITIZENS ? Monday last was the anniversary of the King's liirihd'iy, lull there were fovr Wiiys in which tlie visitors to town could be re- minded of it. The village as a whole ap- peared to forget it. Princijml Holland of the public cchoul was the only (tersun who (presumably) hud enough respect for the day to display a Ha. There are many fine rings owned in town, but they were all laid away where moths corrupt and mildew mildew*, We do not look upon thi peculiar phe- nomenon a proof that socialism, auar- hiim or robust disloyalty are rumjmnt here, but merely as illustratinn the de- termination of the people to maintain the 24th of May as the one spring holiday which they love best and intend to main- tain. The Kind's Birthday comes too close to that other to make a second rea onabl* 01 fojwible. A moveable holiday is not popular. Therefore we will, with all due respect to King George, retain the 'J4th of May as the one day to cele- brate in early summer. Of course we c*n drink (in cold water) to hie health on Jue :t, and we outfit to hoist a few flags, but if we do forget or iieulcct to do so it hould not be regarded a an evidence of treasonable tendencies on the part of our citizens. We plead ifuilty to indifference and forget I ulnes. but not to a studied ignoring of His Majesty's natal day. Those who know the mountain road wett of CollingwuoJ will bo able to ap- preciate the thrilling naturn of a runaway j which occurred there recent'}', nhati a team drawing a load of hay ioc beyond control and dashed down the mountain. The driver was thrown off with the hay and badly hurt. The team first came in contact with Samuel Shaw's buggy which was occupied by himself and Henry Moore of Sin^hamptun. The two men were thrown from the bug^y which was badly smashed. Mr. Moore was injured I on I he head ami the WHUOII ran over one if his limbs. Hushing on they next .sttuck Mr. Geikell's buwjjy which was <<c- cupied by Mr. Oeikell andhis wife. Mrs. Ueikell was seiiously injured und was taken to Mr. Baker's, owner of the fruit farm. Continuing their course they next collided with Herbert Conn's bugay and stiikini; one of the wheels dashed it to pieces, but Mr. Conn was not injured. The horses kept up their mad race with the Wiigdit behind until they were stop- prd near Kirkville. Notwithstanding the destruction they had caused, the horses themselves wote unhurt. Clarksburg Women's Institute have invested in a vacuum cleaner for the use of the membership. Adam Barber of Owen Sound was fined $11)0 anil costs for refusing to open a door <n the Coulson house for M. C. Beckett, the license inspector. Samuel Kerr of Heathcoto dropped suddenly dead from heart failure. He leaves a wife and four chillren. NEW STOCK ! New Suitings New Pantings Everything Njew ! CLEANING & PRESS ING A SPECIALTY ^7 Gall Solicited OUR FIRST VOTING On Friday of this week the electors of Flesherton will have an opportunity "f casting their tirst votes as citi/ensof an in- corporated Tillage. On thin ocaasion it is only a small nitu-r of $'-''KX) f-r com- pleting the side walks i>f the village in cement. The old p<>) ie trustees claimed that it retired from 8150 to $200 each year for repairs to the "Id sidewalks. At an annual payment of $HiO the debentures for f. spieling the sidewalks in cement would be paid oil in twenty years. If this is not doue, necei*iry work on sidewalks this year would make our taxes very high. So far at we know, the action of the Council in this regard is endorsed by most of the ratepayer, and we do not believe that when the Tote is counted there will bo found many opposed to the nclieme. In any event no ratepayer should mi's the opportunity of casting his tirst vote under the new <.rder of things. T wo Mt. Forest business men upset a canoe on May '21. Oue swam ashore.
