THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER 2. 1931 For*200... Can you equal this? For $200 invested yearly, a young man can capitalize his youthfulygowr and effectively prepare for life's contingenc&slthrough the Sun Life Assurance Company" of Canada. 3 QREAT BEXEFMTS He can secure for his dependants immediate protection of $10,000, in- creased yearly thereafter by accumu- lating dividends. This $10,000 estate is created instantly by the first pay- ment. The assured thereby obtains maximum protection for his family at minimum cost at a time when protec- tion is the greatest need. In a few years he may stop paying, take a paid-up policy for $10,000, and thereafter receive regular dividends until his death when the full capital sum of $10,000 is still payable to his dependants. By middle life (if he has not selected the last-mentioned plan) his policy will mature as an endowment for $10,000, returning to him a sum far in excess of the total premiums paid. This investment settlement comes at a time when personal and family maintenance have become more' im- portant than protection. The above policy, like all Sun Life policies, can on maturity be paid in monthly instalments over a period of years, ins wad of in a lump sum.

This last spring the, Department of Field Husbandry, O.A. j C., Guelph, sent a couple of bushel.; to Mr. J. H. Menary Jr. on the llth concession of Euphrasia. This crop has been cut l?or hay while the other is being left for seed production. It can be seen by the fanners, who might be interested, at Mr. Menary's home. Soybeans can be used for forage crop or seed production. The hay H a rich legume feed like alfalfa. The seed is very high in protein. It is almost equal to cotton seed, therefore, is an exceptionally good crop to feed to growing animals. Mr. Menary would be delighted, indeed, to show interested farmers this practical ex- periment. T5ie Grey County branch of the Department of Agriculture, which was instrumental in securing this seed, would be glad to have as many Grey County farmers as possible visit the olot.

Kennedy is serving an ultimatum upon Fall Fair Assoc- iations in Ontario that unless thy dis- continue their practice of looking chiefly to Queen's Park fc~ financial assistance, the I'sual Gc"ernment grants will not I a forthcoming in 1932. He is convinced 'Aiat many fairs show too little pride in them- selves, that they would sooner ask the Government for help than their 3w n municipalities. Consequently he rs taking steps to alter that attitude. This year the ujual grants will be made, but nxt year the Government will give a fair no more money than the fair's municipality gives. On the present basis of contribution, several fairs at least would have to suspend operations. The Government contributes between $80,000 and 100,- 000 a season in supporting these fairs. Under tlhe new policy a con- siderable part of the expenditure will be saved, which is in line with the general policy of entrenchment in the department. LBXGTHY TRIP FOR ONE DAY Car Smashed Into Two Others On Main Street Flesherton was the scene of con- siderable excitement on Wednesday night of last week when two Durham men, Allan MacGillivray and William Darby, both intoxicated, smashed into two cars parked at the side of the street, after they lost control of their lar. Chief of Police Jos. Field of town placed the men under arrest and Constable Denton of Owen Sound wag notifidd, came down and took the men to the Owen Sound jail. The next morning, Thursday, the men appeared in Police Court and in the absence of Police Magistrate Spereman, who was unable to be pres- ent, Chief of Police Carson and the Police Court Clerk, both of whom are Justices of the Peace, presided. Darby pleaded guilty to being intoxi- cated while in charge of a motor car, while MacGillivray pleaded guilty to having liauor in "-\ illegal place, as there was a consiU ;:-able quantity of wine in the car when the police placed the men under arrest. They were remanded for sentence until Magis- trate Spereman returns to the bench. The accident, in which the men fig- ured, occurred when they went too fa-3t over the intersection at the main corner, on which is a raised section where a pipe crosses the road. The speed cf the car made it bound into the air, wrenched the steering wheel out of the driver's hands and the car swerved, hitting Mr. Thos. Genoe's :ar, parked in front of F. V*. Dun- ?an's hardware store, stripping the running board. From there it car- sened wildly across the street and ran head on into a car owned by Harry Akins, which was als? parked or, the street in front of H. Wilson's blacksmith shop, smashing a front wheel. Here it came to rest without my damage to itself and very soon the arm of the law and a huge crowd was on hand. While the affair had an unexpected ending to the pair in- volved, it created 1 considerable excite- ment for those who witnessed the melee. The men came up for sentence on Tuesday morning before Magistrate Spereman. Williac Darby was sent- enced to 21 days in jail and his driv- ing and liquor permit cancelled for six months on a charge of reckless driving-. His companion, Allan Mc- Gillivray, as fined $100 and costs for having liquor illegally. THE BARGAIN COUNTER A Brooklyn department store ad- vertised that 10,000 coats and dreas- es would be placed on sale at $1 each on Monday morning. Five thousand women saw the adv. and came run- ning. Four women were injured. Four plate glass windows were smashed. One ambulance and 20 poticeman were called out. Traffic was held up in the vicinity of the store for sever- al hours. Yet there are still some merchants who will say "Advertising doesn't pay,for nobody reads the ads." Between 300 and 400 old age pen- sions have been cancelled by the pro- vincial office the first of the year in addition to those struck off ow- ing to deaths, which are taking place at the rate of between 300 and 400 a month. The check-up has shown that the pensioner had $7000 in the bank. Another had $5000, the bene- ficiaries, husband and wife, receiving the bank interest on the deposit and a full pension for the two of $480 a 7er. In another instance the recip- ient was found to have $3000. In each case the pension was cancelled. Several cases have been found where children have received farms from their parents under an agreement to support them for the remainder of their lives. Instead of doing this they applied for old age pensions for their parents and received them. In- spectors, however, searching registry j jffice records, discovered the agree- j ment and had the pensions cancelled. BORN McTAVISH In Durham hospital on Thursday, August 27th. 1931, to Mr. and Mrs. Cecil S. McTavtsh, a son, Daniel Purvis. WEEKLY CROP REPORT Harvc-sting throughout Ontario is practically completed and fair yields have been reported through the greater part of the province, although yields of oats and barley are not of is good quality as last year. Through- out the eastern portion of the prov- ince it has been very dry and there has been a decided falling off of milk, cutter and cheese. Eggs are becom- ing scarce and the price is advancing-. Hogs and lambs are taking a decided >lump in price. Alfalfa and red clover seed threshing has been : n progress and very fair yields report- ed. Prices for all farm produce arc exceptionally low. On a recent Sunday Mr. and Mrs. Frank Dowling, Eris Dowling and Ger- ald Whiteside took a trip that is probably a record one so far as Allis- ton tourists are concerned. Leaving Alliston at six o'clock in the morning their car was headed for Windsor, which place was reached before the noon hot?r. Going over to Detroit by way of the tunnel under the Detroit river these lour Allistonians spent some hours in the Michigan city and coming back to Windsor drove all over that city and environs. Before start- ing on the return trip a call was made on some friends in the Canadian bor- der city. Alliston was reached before midnight, the entire run having been made without a puncture or car trouble of any kind. The route taken was by way of Orangeville, Fergus, j Kitchener, Stratford and London. Alliston Herald. Some of the census takers want the rest of their pay. People like to buy on the instalment plan, but they don't like getting paid that way Reports say 15,000 Doukhobors were thinking of coming to Canada, and it sould be added that Canada was also thinking of not letting them enter.

It nails and cuts as easily as lumber with a minimum of waste or muss. Cyproc is fire - resistant, easily and quickly erected, structurally strong and has insulation value. It is draught and vermin-proof as well as fire-safe. Because it is ivory-coloured, it does not require decoration (when panelled) yet it is also a suit- able base for Alabastine, Gyptex or wallpaper.
