iWednesday, February 10, 1937 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE • • • IS that enough? True, the radio gives you certain cold figures but it's indirect and impersonal and at best only a general indication, compared to acuial tele- phone talks tu a number of biijers. In conver- sations, you get the actual feel of the market; you know wtiat's going on; where and when to sell; wliat grades are going best; what the pic- ture promises; and all those other intimate details, the knowledge of which puts dollars in your pocket. The telephone, as a business agent, is truly irreplacalile. THE FLLbHERTON 40VANCE Published on Collingwood Street, !-'lesherton, Wednesday of each week. Cireulation over 1000, f'rico in Canada $2.00 oer year, whtn paid in advance $1.|?0; in U. S. A. $2. per year, when paid in advance $2.00. W. H. THURSTON, Editor. F. J.

They may be very serious and even fatal if neglected. Every ultenij)t should be made to discover the cause and re- move !'• before repeated convulsions result ill deutli.

Toddlers, discovering the jire.sence of their luw baby teeth and in their an.xicty to use them niiiy Kiiaw Ihe k'Ks of their newly painted cot. Lead is in many paints and the sucking or chewm;; of these newly liainted objects ha.s resulted in sev- ere convul.sions, blindness and death, tlue to lead poisoning. Convulsion.^ occur in infanLs when they have soiiiu "stomueh upset" and in this instaiue may be less aerioua than those eonvulsions due to jmisons. Many times some infection such as infected ear (b-um.^, tonsilitis and pneumonia may be ushered in with a convulsion. Although the convul- sion in itself may not he harmful yet if li'ft untreated, repi-nted con- vulsion.s may cniine death. ('onvul- «ive seizures oecuring with infections jfeiiPially clear up and leave no after- math. However by early and pro- per treatment such as the drainage of pus from an car drum or the open- ing of an abscess in the nose or throat, the convnlsinn may lie jirevent- eci ironi recurring. In the early stages before the physician arrives. It is wise to place the child in mustard bath, rubbing him or her briskly. It is quite obvious that such con- ditions are too serious for parents to assume the responsibility when their child ha.s a convulsion. Your, doc- tor should be summoned immediately. The physician will be able to find out the necessary treatment. MAXWELL liOKN â€" - Tu Mr. and Mrs, Joseph i Wright on .Monday, February 1st, a : son.

The meet- ing opened with a hymn followed hy I the Lord's prayer. The discussion pi-riod was taken by the Christian Fellowship convenor, Mrs, Rushell. The topic was "The Christian Family at Wiiilship"; Miss .levvel Priestly sang a solo. Recreation consisted of a Bible contest. The meeting closed by singing "The more we get to- gether". The next meeting will he j in the form of a Valentine social. The Indies will have ehnigc of the program .iiid the men will supply the lunch. Another disastrous fire has visited our fair village. Each time a con- flagration occurs adequate fire pro- tection is discussed for a time and there the matter rests. The chem- ical engine was taken to the fire an Monday, but the operators failed to swing' it into action and there it rest- ed, a useless piece of equipmentâ€" Flesherton's only protection against the fire menace. It is doubtful whether or not the building would have beoii .saved had it operated, but it was as useless as if the village had no pro- tection of any kind. It is a sad state of affairs. Do the people of the village wish adequate protection? If they do the Council should tackle this iiroblem at once and allow the ratepayers to decide. Some scheme should be worked out for better pro- tection for our homes and business places. A hockey match between Diindalk and Flesherton High School senior boys will be played on Thursday of this week, Feb. 11, in Flesherton Ar- ena. Game at 8 o'clock p.m. Skating between periods and after game. Admission only 15 and 10 cents. Durham just about abolished Flesh- erton's hopo of being in the play-offs of the Centre Grey League Hockey wchedule on Thursday night last when they took Flesherton for a ride of 5 â€" 3 on Durham ice. Flesherton still has a chance if they win their next two games and Markdale lose one. DO VS A FAVOR During the next few weeks the Advance will carry several striking advertisements issued by the Dom- inion Department of Fisheries, stres.<;- iiig the benefits of eating more fish. They are also offering free of charge a splendid cook book containing fish recipes which should be in every household. Many National advertisers do not use rural weeklies because they do not have as many thousands of sub- scribers as the dailies. They think ihey art- hastily read and thrown u- side like the dailies. We know our readers will read these advertisements but unless they send for the cook book the Uept. of Fisheries will not know. The Ad- vance hopes every household will take .idvantage of tne offer. The book is well worth having and it will be II real favor to the -Advance, perhaps helping to give Us more profitable aiivei-tising \vliieli will iMiable us to make the Advance a better paper. .lust write to the Uepartnienl of Fisheries.

Realiziiifr that certain boys are get- ting athletic training and that other boys who .should be developed are not given the ojiportunity it is being con. sidered by the P. T. instructors of this vcinity to exclude Centre Grey and ,Semi-Pro. Hockey players, to some extent from High School com- petition and give the inexperienced players a chance to play organized hockey. Lack of money and time do not allow us to enter as many teams as we would like to enter into competition. In the endeavour to dis- cover and develop new players, such a plan has already been started. Thurs- day night at 8:00 p.m. a High School team of this kind from Flesherton will I)lay a High School team of the same kind from Dundalk. Admission is ir>c and 10c.
