Band Here Civic Holiday A committee of the Flesherton Old Boys' and Girls' Association were in town on Saturday and met the local committee to make ararngements for the big picnic to be held here on Civic Holiday. The item under discussion was the employing of the Canadian Field Artillery band for the day. This is the same band that did such excellent work the time of the Old Home Week. It was decided that the band would be engaged and that Flesherton would pay half of the bringing the band to town. This will be a real attraction.

Moved From Maxwell Two pleasant evenings were spent recently when Mr. and iMrs. R. J. Morrison of Maxwell received pres- entations from their neighbors and ther friends. On Wednesday even- ing of last week Mrs. Morrison was presented at her home with bronze book ends from the Maxwell Women's Institute of which she had been sec- retary. On Monday evening a social time was held in the Orange hall and Mr. Morrison received an Orange emblem ring and Mrs. Morrison a pyrex pie plate, as tokens of esteem from the community. Mr. and Mrs. Morrison and two children left on Tuesday for theii new home, near Walkerton, where Mr. Morrison has purchased a mill. Best wishes accompany them to their new home with the hope that they will have their share of prosperity. Farm Hcrses Come Back The present low price of oats and other feeds in contrast with the high- er costs of gas and oil required in tractor operation combine to indicate that the horse is rapidly regaining favor as a medium of farm power ; The next few years will likely see a revival in horse breeding and the use of heavy draft horses on the farms of Canada, both east and we-t. Under present conditions horses ca i b<? bred and reared cheaply and wben they have reached workin;: age, tbi chars es for depreciation, fuel and repairs are surprisingly low, for tho self- oil- ing engine has nothing whatever on the self-repairing heavy draf". horses. Eye Was Injured Mr. John Ottewell of town met with a painful accident on Wednesday of last week. While working at a buzz- sawing a particle of bark struck him on the eyeball. He did not think much of the accident at the time, but it soon became very painful. An abscess had formed and he was forced to call on a physician, who sent him to Owen Sound to a spec- ialist, who treated the eye electrically. He returned home the same day, but since then the eye has been very painful. It is hoped that the sight will not be permanently injured, but it is not certain yet what the result will be.
