Figure This Out A travelling salesman passed over to a hotel man a §100 bill to hold until he called for it. The hotel man needed this amount to pay his gar- age rental and so used it. The gar- age man then paid it to the Irocer; the grocer bought some clothes with it; the clothing man paid it to a hai'dwaro firm, and the hardware merchant, owing the hotel man, paid tho same $100 bill back into the lat- ter's possession just before the sales- man arrived on the .scene to reclalni it. It then developed that the bill was counterfeit, whereupon the sales- man lighted a cigar with the bad bill. Hockey Season To Open Thursday Junior hockey gets away for a start in Fle.sherton this Thursday evening when the Durham team trots over the boards in an N. H. L. fixture This should be a reai' game as both teams are of exceptional strength and the' wise ones figure that the group championship will come to either of these two teams. The other clubs in the Kroup are Hanover and Walkerton. Flesherton juniors are being strengthened with the addition of Bob and Tuck Berry and Bob Dun- das of Markdale, the latter as goalie, and Mel McFanand, brother of E. Mc- Farland, well known in hockey circles in Flesherton. The local players ar? Bill Patton, George Boyd, Harold Best, Fred Gorrell, Bob Phillips and Mci-vyn Johnson, and a real fast taam should result when they get working together.

Nothing gives greater laliie tha:i your tele- phone â€" it costs so little and is worth so much. "Dad will be at the store now" Dad had left for Northampton an hour or so before with quite a list of the family's requirements. When Peg, suddenly recalling the knit- ting party at the Brown's that evening, realized she was short six balls of wool. Quickly she reached for the telephone. "He'll be at the store now and if he isn't, Mr. Coyle will have it ready for him". An incident typical of the value of your telephone in the daUy routine or in big or httle emergencies. It smooths life's path at trifling cost. You NEED your telephone. DEPARTMENTAL CHANGES ANNUAL MEETING John A.
