Mr. Hawman informs us that Mr. Fred Bellamy, an old Flesh- erton boy, who has been in Collingwood post office as a clerk for the past four years, is getting ahead â- with rapid strides, and is now assist- ant postmaster. We congratulate Fred, who has always been considered rather a good sample of what Flesh- erton has product in the â- way of suc- cessful busness men. A Dog Found The Steer ! Mr. Wm. Blackburn of Saugeen Jet. advertised a lost steer recently. He has now recovered it through the in- strumentality of a dog owned by Mr. T. Watson of the Durham Road.' The dog in question went into a piece of ' poplar bush and ran the steer out of ' it. The animal was taken in by Mr. ] John Meads and the owner notified, Mr. Meads having seen the advertise- I raent. The dog, also, must have ' heard about the advertisement. In any event he assisted very materially â-  in recovering the animal, which had i been in hiding for a month or more. i Giving Play At Vandeleur i !

Ceylw All Should Have Same Half Holiday There are few to\*Tis that do not observe a half holiday for a few months of the year. In some the half holiday is observed from May until the end of October, in some from June until September, while a few towns and cities have the half holiday during the whole year with the excep- tion of the month of December. .A. great difficulty in connection with these half holidays is that all places do not close on the same day. In -Arthur the half hcdiday is on Wed- nesday, and in Mount Forest it is on Thursday. Possibly in the next town it is on Friday. Thus, through the summer months a traveller never knows when he is going to find a town closed up and the blinds drawn. For the holiday, Saturday after- noon would undoubtedy be the proper time. This, however, does not seem feasible at present, although there is no good reason why it could not be adopted. In any event the day in which the early closing takes place should be uniform all over the prov- ince. The united Boaards of Trade, with perhaps the co-operation of the Ontario Legislature, should be able to effect this. â€" Arthur Enterprise.

NOTICE TO CREDITORS The Bankrupt Way .o««oi I had a* fine and gaudy car, quite fit . for dukes and peers; "In it," I said "111 travel far â€" it's good for twenty ; years. It ia as good a bus, I ween, i as any gruy should need; it gives me. for my gasoline, all kinds of power and speed.' Thus I reasoned Mon- ; day night, but on the Tuesday mom, I was a sad and heartsick wight: I ' viewed my van â- with scorn. My next door neighbors, the O'Fakes, had bought a wagon new; it was equipped with four wheel brakes, and mine had i only two. I put a mortgage on my ' shack, and one upon my shed, and < from the dealer soon brought back an auto painted red. It had a brake on every wheel and cantilever springs, and it was built of costly steel â€" a tumbril fit for kings., ""This car," I said, "I shall propel until I'm old and grey, until I hear the passing bell that sum.mons me away." On Thursday night I reasoned thus, as I sat by my door; on Friday mom I saw a" bus that made me sick and sore. It has the fat and mushy tires that people call baloons; and I went forth to seek my tires and sell my forks and spoons "I'U have to have such tires," I said, "to train with other guys;" and on ray shack and on my shed another mortgage lies. How happy is the man who tools a flivver old but true, â-  and doesn't join the frantic fools who look for something new. â€" Walt Mason The Peoples' Grocery AND ICE CREAM PARLOR • • S • s 9 OATS.
