Never before, according to some of our oldest residents, has there been an absence of snow on January ]2th. Christmas day heavy rains commenced to fall and the snow disappeared, kv the present time the fields and bu.sh are free of snow and sleighs and cut. ter are safely stored in the barns. It is expected that they will shortly be needed. The sporting fraternity in town are also having their fun and various sports were enjoyed this week. Sev- eral setts of tennis were played on the courts at the park on Monday, and Tuesday afternoon Markdale high school played a game of touch rugby. Tuesday night a hockey game was p!aye<l at the local rink, the first tim(> thnt summer games have been played so early in the new year. U. C. Sunday School The annual meeting of St. John's I'niled Church .Sunday School was held at the parsonage last week and the reports received from the various officers showed the School to be in a flourishing condition. Mr. Geo. Arm- strong handed in his resignation as Superintendent and the vacancy was filled by Mr. Wm. Miller. Mrs. W. Moore, who had given the best of sat- isfaction as treasurer for seven years, desired to be relieved, and her resig- nation was accepted with regret.

PROTON STATION .\ gi<'al deal of live stock haj, been shipped to Toronto from this locality during the past week. Pever Bios, and Herb Corbelt shipped another load last Monday. Clayton Retls is on the road every day and sometimes part of the night wth his two trucks, delivering live stock to Toronto, Hugh Sims is driving one of the trucks. iMr. and Mrs. McCannell, Mr. Ar- thur McCannell, Mr. J. H. Richardson ami Miss Viol.-i Richardson motored to Goderich Sunday to attend the fun- eral of th4' late Mr. R, Phillips, who is a relative of Mrs. McCannell and Mr. Richardson. iMr. Alex. Ilergntt visited in Dur- ham on Monday. Mr. Emmett Jackson and Mr. Wil- fred Batchelor visited friends in Cor- bet ton community. Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Uyous and family are moving into Mr. Wyville's house which was vacated last week by Mr. and Mrs. Dan. Campbell, who have gone to Dan's hovhood home on the town line of Artemesia and Proton. The wonder is that the lawyers themselves through their own organ- ization, have not inntested vigorous- ly- Hjive Away High School? A movement has been on foot for some weeks by ratepayers of the Township of Artemesia to declare the Village of Flesherton the local high school district, in place of taking in part of Artemesia. A delegation met the Artemesia Council on Monday on the subject and it was agreed to meet the High School Board of Trustees at thj; school this Wedensday evening. There has been a change in school regulations this year, but the signifi- cance of this is not known at the present time. Artemesia township owns ninety per cent of the high school, the remainder being owned by the Village of Flesherton. It is a peculiar situation that the owner of the school would wish to present it to Flesherton and if it won't cost the village taxpayers any more each year. We suppose that we shouldnt kick if they wish to give it away. Curling Club Officers J. O. Dargavel was elected Presid- ent of the Flesherton Curling Club at the annual meeting held Friday even- ing last. The financial report was given and showed a sub- stantial balance on hand for this year. Mr. Roy Piper was elected Vice-Pres- ident and Mr. F. H. W. Hickling as secretary-treasurer. Both Messrs. Dargavel and Hickling have held t'neir offices since the Club was started six years ago. The rink committee is composed of Messrs. G. McT)ivish, B. Welton, Ci. Brackenbury. J. A. Rich- ards, M. Wilson and II. McCauley. It was decided to hold a bonspiel and the first week in February was chosen. At a meeting on Monday evening the skips were chosen and twelve rinks wer<> drawn up for the season's playing. Several new mem- bers have Joined this year and it is expected that a most enthusiastic year will result. The President and Vice-President are choosing rinks and will start the season with their 'spiel, the losing side to provide the dinner. Live Stock Report Although supplies of cattle were very heavy for Monday's market, price.s were fully from a quarter to a half higher than a week ago. Be- sides a good local demand, buyers for shipment to the United States were actively engaged in securing their re(|uirement8, which meant a great deal to the market as a whole. Choice heavy steers brought from !S*)..'')0 to $7.00, and fair to good from $.'>.50 to $6.25. Choice butcher steers and heifers sold at from $5.50 to $C; fair to good from $1.7.") to $5.40; com- mon and medium $4.00 to $4.05. Choice baby beeves held steady at from $7.. .'")0 to $8.00. Best butcher cows brought from $4.00 to $4. '25; fair to good from $3 to $3.90; canners and cutters $2.00 to $2.75. All classes of bulls were in strong demand, choice light buU'her bulls from $4.00 to $4.50, others from $3.50 to ?4.()0 The lamb market held steady, choice ewes selling at from $0.25 to $0.50; hcpvies and culls at lower prices ac- cordingly. Choice light butcher sheep made from $4.00 to $5.00. Calves continued to feature the market, ad- vancing to a top of 12 cents, with the bulk of the good to cliioce veal sellinu: at from $10..5O to $11.50, fair to good. $'.».00 to $10. (M), common and medium $7.00 to $8.50. Monday's hog market w-ns some- what easier, and sales were made on the basis of $8.50 to $8.05 for truck deliveries. The market for the bal- ance of the week would depend entire- ly upon supplies. Reports from Eng- land were lower and this is having an adverse effect on the market, while On the other hand, American markets are providing sonip stimulant to the trade in keeping prices at the present level. «4H ^*i PV ** * ******** * ** * ** * ****** 1 1 1 »f ♦♦'»»l A MEETING OF ALL GREY COUNTY :: Cattle Owners TO DISCUSS THE RESTICTED AREA PROJECT FOR GREY COUNTY will be held at : Feversham, January 20, at 2 p.m. j Kimberley, January 20, at 8 p.m. 11 Flesherton, January 21^ at 2 p.m. Eugenia, January 21, at 8 p.m. ii Rocklyn, January 22, at 2 p. m.

The game was featured by some nice running and catching on the part of Leavell, Piper, Smith, McVicar and Clifton, while Martin showed good form in forward passing and running. Markdale was held in check by the local line, which was superior on point of size and weight. For Markdale the half and quarer backs, Henderson, White, W. Henderson, Bailey and Dundas, showed to best advantage, and although the above score was large, the game at no time was an easy one for the home team. Ground and weather conditions were ideal for touch rugby. Flesherton Players â€" Hopkins, Mc- Tavish, Monaghan, Johnson, Archi- bald, Leavell, Clifton, McVicar, Piper, Turney, Martin and Smith.
