Phone 54 FLESHERTON Government Wheat (Continued From Page 1) pare a bill on Canadian nationality which would amend and consolidate the law.s of Canada relating to it, but was, he said, unable to proceed with the matter "For the reason that while the i)ermaneiit officials of the various departments of government are intelligent and richly experienced in the administration of the depart- ments, their minds are very obtuse, indeed, to the reception of new ideas which concern jjeneral public policy in matters only incidentally affecting their departments." Such frankness is most helpful, particularly from a man of Mr. Cahan's standinjf. appointment of a special committee, whose business it will be to study the whole need in this field However, on second reading of Bill is the place to protest the prin- ciple, which a number of us did. I said I couldn't see how people who were unable to pay their debts with- out borrowing could i)ay them by bor- j-owing from one of these companii and at the same time pay the addition- al moneys resulting from 27'/^ inter- <st. One of these companies had car- rie<l on a persistent lobby in favor of their bill and that I said always made me suspicious. If the act was as good as they claimed, it could rest on its own virtue. After a division the matter was referred to the com- mittee. â€"AGNES MACI'HAIL Saturday. March 20, 1937. Mrs. N. Marshall Dies Mrs. Margaret Marshall, resident of Meaford for 50 years and prev- iously to that time of 1 Uh line St. Vincent where she was born and rais- ed, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. A. F. I'edlar, Eugenia on Friday, March 12th, in her 8-Uh year. She had been an invalid for the past 10 years, and la.'-t April suffered a stroke from which she never fully re- covered. The late Mrs. Marshall was one of a family of ten chddren, four dying in infancy, and a brotlui and sister surviving, Charles Hill of '1 hornbury and Miss Lydia Hill of De- troit predeceased her; Mrs. Geo. tiai- braith, Owen Sound, Mrs. G. Mitchell of ThonibuTy and Mrs. Jn,). Mc- 'Knight, 4th line St. Vincent. She was a member of Trinity United Chuich, Meaford, and is survived by two daughters, Mrs. A. F. Pedlar, Eugenia and Miss Kathleen, Kingston, J. N. and M. II., Meaford. Her husband predeceased her two years ago, one son, Charles H. in 1008 and one daughter, Retta, 2 months ago. Service was held Sunday at the] home of her daughter and was con- ducted by Rev. Dean of Feversham. Rev. and Mrs. Dean sang very ap- propriately, "A moment in Heaven pays for it all." The remain.? were then taken to Meaford, service being held on Monday at the home of herj son, J. N. Marshall with Rev. Baker in charge. Interment was made in Lakeview cha|)el„ Meaford. The flowers were numerous, among Ihem being a beautiful spray, the kindness of friends and neighbors of Hlh line and Eugenia. I'allberears at Eugenia were T. Bet Is, Wm. Walker, R. Purvis, T. Mc- Kee, Wm. Magee and Alex. Cameron. PROTON STATION The difficult year.^, whicTt we hope are behind us, have been a harvest for fmall loan companies, which arrange credit for people suffering from great financial stress. At least two of them have been before the House this session asking for changes in their charter. Both the House of Commons and the Senate have shown strong opposition to the rates charged. For instance, one company names a 2% rate per month, which sounds easy but actually runs about 27% a year. Fam- ilies that come into the toils of such concerns must have the utmost dif- ficulty in extricating themselves. The Finance Minister, Mr. Dunning, asked that the bills be referred to the Banking and Commerce Committee and definitely promised that the .Sup- erintendent of Insurance will be asked to continue gathering all available material in connection with the prob- lem of small loans and at the next session of Parliament the government will ask the Housi> to consent to the Time i'' what most of us have lots of, but do little with. â€"SEED TIMEâ€" and then THE HARVEST YOIR BEST HARVE.ST is assured when ', I you ship your Livestock to Dunn & Levack LIMITRI) 1 1 Canada's L<'ading Livestock '.

As the date of the meeting â- hanced to be St. Patrick's Day, Miss Ruth Shearson read an interesting iirticle on St. Patrick, the Patron Saint of Ireland. Mrs. Ed.

Flesberton Won The Centre Grey Trophy Playing wonderful hockey from the goal out, p^lesherton defeated Chats- worth 5 â€" 4 in a torrid struggle on Markdale ice, Friday evening, win- ning the Centre Grey League trophy in two out of three games. Chats- worth took the first game at home 1 â€" 1 and Flesberton came back strong to win at home 5 â€" 3 and finished a line season by taking the third. Play 1 lashed from end to end in lightning plays that had the huge crowd in a lather of excitement and suspense from gong to gong. The game was fairly clean and four penalties handed out by referee Saunders, Durham, two to each team, Ed. McFarland and Patton in the first period, while Ed. McFarland and McCutcheon were giv- en five minutes for ruffling leach other's hair in a fist fight, when ex- citement was running high. From then on both teams collected them- selves and stayed on the ice, keeping the game going at full speed. Play commenced at a fast clip and within five minutes Smith skated in alone to beat Kirk and open the scor- ing; Ferris was forced to extend him- self to keep out repeated charges and finally Chatsworth was rewarded with a goal scored on a ganging attack, the puck slipping in off Johnst n's skates when Bill Patton suffered for his misdemeanor in the penalty box. W'ithin three niinutes after he carne back, hp put the locals ahead on a nice combination play from Boyd and .Smith. Boyd scored another this period, but it was called back on an off-side. Both teams scored two each in the second, the first by Boyd on a pass from Patton, followed by Bell from E. Wood:;. Smith again gave Flesh- a two goal lead when Johnston carried the rubber to the blue line, shot it over to Smith on right wing who made sure of his shot. Bell again brought Chatsworth in the running in a lone effort. This period was the best of the game as both goalies made leniarkable saves. Chatsw'orth .scor- ed another one in this frame, but was ruled out when Ferris was interfered with in the crease. With play going at high speed and the players keyed to a high pitch McCutcheon and Mc- Farland traded punches and were ban- ished for five minutes. Flesberton commenced more of a defensive game in the final frame and kept it Up for half the period when Woods and Bell broke away, the form- er scoring, the puck slipping through Ferris' pads. This tied the game four all. Flesberton again went to town and McCutcheon won the game and the Championship when he drove a hot one from outside the blue line that caught Kirk asleep. From then on Chatsworth was kept in their own ind of tile rink by some fine back- checking by Boyd, Patton and Gorrel. Both teams were almost exhausted from the fast pace set. and while Chatsworth never stopped trying, they failed to re-organi/.e themselves to cause any damage to the Flesberton hopes. Local and Personal .Messrs. Dick Stewart and Bill i'atton spent the week end in Toronto. Mr. Winslow Kernahan of Toronto was in town last week. Miss Edna McCallum, Reg.

The Misses Dirstein and Miss Meu- ser sister of Mrs. F. G. Karstedt of town, and two gentlemen drove over from Elmwood and assisted in the service. After lunch a sing-song was much enjoyed, led by the two gentlemen. We were sorry that so many had left the church, and so fail- ed to hear it. The regular meeting of the W. C. T. U. was held at the hoine of Mrs. H. Down on Monday evening. The president opened the meeting by read- ing a portion of scripture and then led in prayer.

BUY AT HILL'S AND SAVE NOTES Flesberton made one of the greatest fighting finishes ever .seen in local hockey to win the centre Grey League title. loosing six of their first eight K-.mwn played they defeated Durham and .Maikdale in the schedule to en- ter the iilay-downs. They def«ate<l Shelbiirne l!» â€" 8 in two games, while Chatsworth in third place were polish- ing off Dundalk 8â€"7 on the round who had only lost one of their league irames. Tho„' they lo.st the first of the final series at Chatsworth and came baek to win the next two. Both teams scored 11 goals in the serie.;, but games won vvere to count. .\11 honour to surh a fighting gang who did not know what the word "(luit" meant. Besides coming from the bottom of the League race to win the coveted cup, Fle.sherton had a hostile crowd in Markdale to contend with. Dundalk district, Chatsworth (naturally), and half of Markdale were giving Chats- woith their vocal support. Why Dun- dalk (lid not give Flesberton at least a share of their support is not known, or worried about very much, but we should think they would give a game li'juii credit for the splendid come- liackthey nuide. It was a great dis- apiioinfment for Dundalk to lose out in both "instance8,"and we firmly believe that they felt Chat worth's defeat worse- than the latter them- selves did, considering that Dundalk look both games from Flesberton in I be schedule. ,Thnt wa.s before Boyd joinei the team and the boys had their passing working well. Six wins out of the Ifst seven games played shows the calibre of the team, so it should be no astonishment for Dimdalk to realize the bitter truth that the better team m the semi-finals and finals won the cup.
