November 5th, 1924 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE â- BBS J. A. CLARKE REAL ESTATE DEALER Msrk4«le Ontario. I have several Rood farms for sale, to exchange or to rent. Large fapns for small city and town property ... for farms. Always ready for a deal, that they may be called on at their "Service and Satisfaction' my motto. I homes after business hours. The merchants of the town of Hanover have signed an agreement not to give or donate to any institu- tion, club or society, nor buy tickets to shows, concerts, fairs or other en- tertainments, nor to give to or buy from beggars or pedlars durin'- busi- ness hours. We presume, however, Your Crop Money THE future holds many an unknown financial problem that ready money can solve. With surplus crop money open a sav- ings account now. It not only will pay you interest â€" it gives you business contact with a banker whose advice and assistance will be useful to you from year to year in making the most of your farm. "BANR'TDRONTO" BRANCHES: FEVERSHAM MARKDALB Township Intention to Purchase at Adjourned Tax Sale Take notice that in the event of t he County Treasurer failing to sell the undermentioned lands of the Township of Osprey att he Tax Sale to be held in Owen Sound on November 14th, then â€" In accordance with instructions given to me by the Municipal Coun- cil of this Township, I will, at the adjourned sale, which it will then be necessary fo rthe County Treasurer to hold, purchase the said lands for the amounts due as shown hereunder, providing always that at the said ad- journed sale any offer that may be made for the said lands is less than the amount due for arrears of taxes, charges and all other costs or if no price at all is offered Acres If Patented % Patented 60 Not Patented 15 Patented Kelvin Patented Hydro Users Requested To Use Power Here The village hydro commission has received word that there is a possibil- ity of our power being curtailed during the months of November and December, owing to the great demand I on the system and a delay in secur- i ing nmchinery from the manufactur- ers. The letter conveying this infor- mation reads as follows: Please be advised that due to ex- cessive demands for power on the . various plants serving your district i that the Commission might find it I necessary to curtail your supply of I power during the period between the i present date and the first of Janu- ary next. The Commission regrets having to give this notice but delay in securing delivery of equipment for the exten- ' sion of the Muskoka development at I South Falls (which is no fault of the Commission's, but is entirely duo to I the manufacturers being unable to j live up to their contracts) has pre- ' vented the Commission completing the South Falls development in time to be of any value in helping out the demands on the Georgian Bay system during this period. It is expected that the first new unit at South Falls will be in opera- tion by January 1st, after which date the Commission expects to have sufficient power available to meet all requirements for some time to come. Should curtailment be necessary, you will receive notice by telephone from the Superintendent of the sys- tem, (Mr. T. Berry), and when this notice is given it is expected that you will comply with same; otherwise, the only means of protecting the gen- erating equipment is to trip the switch and interrupt the service. The Commission trusts that it will have your co-operation during this period and you can I'est assured that every effort will be made to main- tain the best service possible under existing conditions. On Tipping Overseas Clippings Taken From Sorae Exchanges On Occurrences In Europe Europe is wedded to the tipping system, and some of the editors who were overseas 'the past summer had rather funny experiences. While visiting' the tower of Lon- don, Mr. H. E. Rice, of the Hunts- ville Forester, bad an experience in the matter of tips even more singu- lar . Mr. Rice described it thus â€" Our guide, rotund, ruddy-faced, good- natured and humorous, came in for many words of thanks. Thinking these a little unsubstantial, I waited until the party had got safely away and then slipped a o|oin into his hand. He immediately handed it back witli the proud assertion that he "was employed by the King" and could" not receive tips. As far as I can recall, this is the one and only outstanding example of proudly as- serted financial independence met with on our entire trip.

Township of Osprey [An Agricultural Authority I â€" The Toronto Star, referring to the success of modern Canadian women in the judging of live stock, thus re- fers to a lady who received her early education in Flesherton, where she spent her girlhood and where she still has numerous friends: â€" "Cora Hind, the agricultural editor of the Manitoba Free Press, in many re- spects the greatest living spinster, is the most honored figure at Stock- breeders' Conventions, and, of course, is as womanly-hearted as the world contains. The Free Press wheat crop estimate is Miss Hind's estimate, and the best that comes through." So say we all!

HILL & Co., Limited, Markdale The Walkerton Telescope man says some of the editors found it rather difficult to get acquainted with the currency of the various countries. One of them was Sam Wynn of the Yorkton, Sask., News. At Antwerp Sam and the editor of the A. T. de- cided to visit the museum, once a feudal baron's residence, but had long since l>ecome the property of the state. While in the basement of the building viewing the dungeons Sam suddenly remembered that Eur- opean guides were not averse to ac- cepting gratuities and r|roduced, a coin and gave it to the guide. Short- ly afterwards we went upstairs and were examining other relics of bar- barism when that functionery again appeared and called out, "Meester, Meester," and at the same time held up something between his fingers. I went over to him and found it was a coin he was holding. I took it from him and notwithstanding his threat- ening attention burst out laughing, for Sam with true Canadian generos- ity had handed him a five centime piece as a tip. This I replaced with a franc. As a franc was only worth five cents in Canadian money Sam had unwittingly presented our honor- ed guide with the magnificent Canad- ian equivalent of one quarter of a cent. Needless to say when it was explained to him Sam and the guide had a good laugh. - â- ; LIVE STOCK FOR SALE FOR SALEâ€" 3 Steers two years old, in good condition. â€" Ben McKen- zio, Ceylon.
