PARKS COMMITTEE CoUingwood New Ftnl Cars Likely i Will Tike Vete fir in Mirket ii Aitnm New Siiewiki in Tiwn "Yes, a new Ford is coming but it will be autumn perhaps before we will be able to display the new model" -said H. Down of H. Down & Sona, local Ford agents in discussing the recent brief announcement from the The Village Council ihet on Monday evening as « Court of Revision, with all the members present. Mr. Ansley appealed against the assessment of the Flesher estate property, and Mr. Men Won the Contest company's head offices at Ford, Ont. W. G. Kennedy against his business "It is characteristic of Ford policy assessment. The former was enter- not to hurry into the production of a tained and a reduction of 1760.00 waa car. Ford experimented for many | ,„ade. i„ the latter case the assess- years be'ore the /amous Model T|^^„t ^^ ^qq ^„ sustained. I "^.'T^^V^,;*!^ ««T„^ „Tr«^"i^ Council then met. Communica- out sell all other can for nineteen 'â- , ^ , ^._ t^ ^ ^ years shows that when he experimenta 1 t'ow w«" >â- Â«Â»Â«> 'â„¢'" *e Department he arrives at some real results. He|of Highways, agreeing to pay thirty has been ej^rimenting for years to ^ per cent, of the cost of a sidewalk at get something more advanced than the the cemetery swamp, also agreeing to model T. Now that he has it, plans supply calcium chloride for the streets have been completed to produce it on ^he same terms as last year. An on a quality-quality basis that will give the public the benefit of Ford economical manufactii;ring ynethodB. Meanwhile we will take orders for the new car "sight unse«n" and deliveries will be made strictly in order of the of the time the sale was arranged. We will also continue for the present to sell the moled T. It always has been Ford policy to trade on Ford used cars and so the owner of a current model Ford will enjoy a preference when it comes to buying the new model. The company's faith in this practice is based on the long life and high figure at any period in its life. This policy of trad- ing on used Ford cars will be more apparent than ever when the new model is placed on the market some time this Fall. No information is yet available respecting the mechanical details of the new car, thS Dealer said. "The only definite information I have ia that the new model will cost more than the present model. But that was to be expected if it was to be an im- provement over the present model, as anyone who knows automobile values will tell you. There is every indication that the new car will be a sensation. We have the company's word for it that it has speed, style, flexibility and control in traffic. That is .iust about everything one could ask for, and when you add the benefit of Ford's economical production methods and traditional adherence to a stand- ard of highest quality you have a wonderful combination. "In the interim we will continue to sell Model T cars and to give service on them. They will never be orphan cars, for the company will continue to produce parts for them as long as they are in use, and as they are the longest-lived cars on the market that will be for a considerable time. The announcement that the new model will cost more to manufacture than the Model T should set at rest the rumors which circulated about a private cut. We know we'll have no difficulty in moving out our stock of Mode' T's for they are still the best value ard we are expecting a time when the demand for Ford cars will be very much greater than the supply." HALF HOLIDAY COMMENCE Thursday afternoon of last week saw the inauguration of the half hol- iday in Flesherton during the months of June, July, August and September of this year. Many took advantage of the fine day and finished the long neglected gardening, which has been retarded by the wet weather of the past few weeks. Others went fishing and still others enjoyed themselves by a short motor vacation. The an- nual half holiday is looked forward to by both employer and omployee, and full advantage is taken of the recreative possibilities. account for 93.36 was received from' W. A.

PEVERSHAM FOOTBALL TEAM ORGANIZES FOR THIS YEAR The anual meeting of the Fever- sham Football Club was held in the Temperance Housq, Feversham, on Saturday last, June 4th. After the reading of correspondence, passing of accounts and reports, the officers- for 1927 were elected as follows: Hon. Pres. â€" Andy Fawcett. Pres. â€" Thos. Thombury. Vice Pres. â€" Gideon Egy. Captain â€" Clarence Alexander. Sec.-Treas.â€" C. H. Smith. Grounds Com. â€" Wm. Heitman, R. J. Whiteoak, S. McMuUen, Jack Smith and John Robinson. The concert competitiou given under the auspices of the Agricultural Soc- iety on Wednesday uod Friday nights of last week, resulted in a win for the men, whose concert had more '^f a variety than the ladies', according to the judges. However, the concert given by the ladies waa real good and Mra. Down, as chairman, was better than most men. and in her addreas gave a sketch of th.: various profess- ion and ocGupationa that wome.i are entering. An orchestra, composed of Mrs. Ray Pedlar and Mrs. C. Thomp- son with violins. Miss May Camtthers with the auto harp. Mias Loma Chard with the guitar and Mn: HcCallum at the piano, furnished aeveral orches- tra numbers than were heartily ap- plauded. Miaa Irene Martin gavo a reading and Mias Alice Beard gave a fine piano solo. Mias Emily Acheson gave a comic reading, while Miss M. Stewart delighted the audience with a soprano solo, and Misses Jean and Marion Stoart olayed a piano duet and were forced to an encore. Mrs. A. Down, Mrs.' McCallum Aid Miss A^nes Henderson sang very beauti- fully "I Passed by Your Window." Mrs. H. Down and Mrs. W. Inkster gave a comic sketch, that filled out a program that was heartily applauded. The men quite distinguished them- selves to a crowded house and the numbers were very pleasing and at- tractive. One comic number was a bun eating contest between several of the directors of the Society, the buns being soaked in blackstrap mol- asses, this number being captured by the president of the Society, Mr. Robt Richardson. The Ceylon trio, com- posed of Messrs. Geo. Cairns, Donald McLeod and L. Jackson, and the South Line orchestra gave several numbers and received a great ovation. Mr. S. I&rdwick presented a musical mono- logue, while Murray Inkster gave a bass 'solo. Messrs Geo. Hazard and Henry Howard gave excellent num- bers on the accordian. and Messrs.' T. Skinner and Jos. Corkill made things lively with clog and step dahcinc and Dr. L. G. Campbell entertained the audience with an excellent reading.Mr. Wm. McKenzie gave a recitation, as also did Mr. John Russell while Mr. Howard McGee of Vandeleur gave a couple of readings, the final one being decidedly humorous. The program was real good and received favorable comment. We believe the total receipts for both the concerts was about $90. ENGAGEMENTS Mrs. A. E. McCallum announces the engagement of her elder daughter, Mildred Irene, to Mr. Albert E. Sparks, the wedding to take place early in June.
