WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1933 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE > Calf Felt At Home There is one calf of the cow var- iety in town that can make itself at home wherever it may be, according to the story i-eeeived by Tlie Advance. Mr. Albert Stewart has one, a twin ^:alf, that wandered into his residence through an open door and made a tour of inspection despite efforts made to have it change its inclination. Mr. Stewart mubt have his stables in a spotless condition and cxh-a comfort- able quarters because Miss Calf went right to the' bedroom and flopped itselfi on the bed, rcfuiiing to l3e moved from its adopted home. It finally was ejected after considerable excitcTiicnt and, no doubt, will ponder over and covet the comfortable sur- roundings enjoyed by the human race. Why It Is^ed ''She" Why is the locomotive called she? A road foreman of locomotives em- ployed on a Canadian system believes he has the answer. He says: "There are many reasons. For instance, thex wear jackets with yokes, pins, shields and stays. They have aprons and laps too.

The measure of strictly local responsibility back ot the car, the local facilities for service, the interest of the local dealer in the welfare of the owner â€" these are some reasons why we are selling satisfaction with every new or used car we deliver.

LITTLEJOHNS, Teacher, After Highway Paviog A deputation from Flesherton, Dur- ham and Dundailk interviewed the Deputy Minister of Highways in To- ronto on Thursday last regarding the paving of Highway No. 10 from Dun- dalk to Flesherton, a distance of 11 miles. Reeves H. A. McCauley of Flesherton and Ridley of Dundalk stressed the condition of the road this and other springs and urged" that the pavement be hiid. While the Deputy Minister could not give any assurance that the deputation's wish would be granted he was sympathetic to their demands. He stated that before paving was commen.;ed the county council would have to be con- sulted as they would be required to pay their share' of the costs. It is likeiy that an estimate of the cost will be prepared ard submitted to the council for their considei'ation. a regular berth. All young men are- urged to come out to practice and receive the experience necessary to hold a place on the team. All have an equal chance by showing what they can do. Won Rod With Troot S. S.

This farm is situated three and a half miles south of Flesherton on Highway No. 10 and is one of the best in Artemesia. There have been very few farms sold this year, al- though there have been plenty of- fered, while many of them have been rented. BASEBALL PRACTICE STARTS SPRINGHILL PUBLIC SHCOOL There have not been many practices held for baseball so far, as the weath- er has been unsettled. However, it is expected that a good team will go on the field when the season opens. The yosng players are interested in the game and will work hard to catch Fishing in this district opened with a bang on Monday and quite a large number of fine trout were on dis- play. Mr. Charles J. Bellamy of town caught the largest one in Grey County during the storm Monday evening, which was 16 Vi iPi'jhes long and weighed 2 pounds IVj, ounces. With this fine fish Charlie won a fine split bamboo trout rod, awarded by Frank Slater of Owen Sound foi the largest trout caught in Grey County the opening day of the sea- son. Second prize in this contest v.'ent to Laurie Lawrence of Kimber- ley with one 18 inches long and weighing two ounces less than above. He caught hi-s in the Beaver River north of Kimberley, and was a fine specimen. Mr. Bellamy secured his in the Hydro Lake from the bridge on the Eighth Line. Early in the morning Master Jjm Thurston, 8 years old, caught a trout measuring 13 Vj inches in length and weighing one pound, also at the 8th Line bridge. He was a proud lad bring- ing his trophy home. The number of outside fishermen present to usher in the season was not as great as former years, but four carloads of Guelph fishermen were on hand, but had not caught any fish in the morning. A number from Gait were also at their reserve on the Beaver. The next trophy to be won by trout fishermen is the Toronto Star trophy for anglers. All three pound and larger trout should be entere.l in this competition. y Small Advts. L,ost or Strayed LOST â€" Large Parker black foun- tain pen, also ladies' Waterman brown pen.

Back-to-Farm Movement The present increased employment of men on farms is a definite step toward minimizing the unemployment situation, declai-ed Dr. Christie, pres- ident of O.A.C., in a rece'nt address. He referred to the fact that more boys and more men as farm manag- ers on salaries had been placed on 'farms this spring than in any like period for the past ten years. "These boys and men are being welcomed back to the farms and they are look- ing forward to a good home, healthy living, and a small but steady wage. More farmers ai'e taking on help this year than usual. Throughout the rural communities there is generally a feeling of faith, a feeling that thing.5 are going ahead." In his opinion, it is the rural people who are saving the situation today and it is the farm which is leading the way in stablizing conditions throughout the country.

West Demands Cars Great improvement is apparent in the demand for automobiles in the prairie provinces, according to C. E. McTavish, general aal^ manager of General Motors Products of Canada, who has just made a Western tour. "There has been an almost dramatic demand for cars," says Mr. McXav- ish, "in sections of the prairie prov- inces that the' general public in other parts of Canada have come to believe were economically prostrated by low prices for agricultural products, par- ticularly wheat. Chevrolet sales in Retina ane up over 40% over last year's for the first three months ot the year, and other General Motors cars show similar increases.
