OWEN SOUND, ONTARIO AvfftorizM/ Solffors of "Coca-Co/a** Drink &(a<rr& Possibly some good reasons could be ^ven for deferring the municipal elections for two years. If so, Hon. Mr. Cross has overlooked the fact. "We are motivated only in this proposal by one objective, namely, the winning of the war," said he last week." But he failed to indicate how it would put the skids under Hitler- ism to have municipal elections every two years. Let's look at it. The municipal elections cost some money admittedly. Here is about the sequence of events. 1. The Municipal Clerk and Coun- cil set the dates and pursue the legal formalities. 2. Polling places are provided and paid for. 3. Voters' Lists are prepared and printed, and election is advertised. 4. Ballots are printed. 5. Election officers are engaged and paid. After the election the people spend the rest of the year cussing the Council. Now, where does the pro- Hitleristic influence come in, there? The Clerk and Council serve for the same remuneration, election or no election. The renters of polling plac- es stand to LOSE the amount usually paid, and will have that much less to spend in the community. The printers will have their revenue cut down â€" and have much less to contribute to Mr. Hepburn's and Ottawa's Income taxes. (Who ever heard of a printer hoarding money? It just can't be done! And for obvious reasons!) There remains only the candidates for public honor to be considered. It is doubtful if the cigar bill of the average municipal candidate is suffi- cient to be considered. have complained of the poor fishing on the 'akes and no wonder. If the present • tate of affairs continue very n .y more years, the ommercial fisherman will be compelled to store their new aw£,y for the want of fish to catch. Let the Department of Game a -d Fisheries declare a closed sfaron d't?ring the last week in Octo- ber and the first two weeks in Novem- ber and in ?. ve. y few y. am fiihiig will again be a paying proposition on the luke». lip to the p es. n*- the fish- ermen have opposed the schc, ip, as they claim that fishing is best in the spawning season, butj that is a narrow view for them to take as they ♦I'e dcfcTtmg the aims for their own good by such a stand. BUCKINGHAM George Udell. Mr. and Mrs. McKinnon (Laura White) of Toronto were guests of honour at the Ceylon Hall Wednesday evening, ,when their friends in this community presented them with an electric floor lamp. Miss Irene Math- ewson read the address and Miss Doris Marshall made the presentation on be- ralf of the friends. Both Mr. and Mrs. McKinnon expressed their appre- ciation to their friends. Lunch and dancing followed the presentation. Friends sympathize with Mr. and Mrs. Donald McDougal and family in the loss of their daughter, Catharine, (Mrs. Reede), whose death occurred at Iron Bridge, Algoma, on Nov. 7. Mrs. Reede was a sister of Mrs. John Meads. ORANGE VALLEY Mrs. Clarence .\lcox spent the week end in Toronto. Mr. and Mrs. F. Eagles and daugh. ter spent Sunday with M. and Mrs.. J. Eagles.

Littlejohns and son Clifford spent Sunday evening at Portlaw visiting the former's aunt Mrs. T. R. McKenzie. Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Hill and fam- ily spent a day recently at Walters Falls with Mr. and Mrs. Morrison. It is claimed that Ontario has een warmer than Florida. It would be nice if we could repeat that statement next February. WHY ANNUAL ELECTIONS? As a matter of fact, we have long felt that annual elections are im- portant factors in our democratic set- up, and even that elections by accl i- mation are subversive of best resuiis â€" save in such cases as they are the result of extraordinary efficiency, and not merely indicative of a lack of interest on the part of John Public. Our municipalities have declining debts hnd as a rule are in good fin- ancial shape, which cannot be said of the "higher" governing bodieA. Why? Largely because of the annual elec- tion. Also, because the ratepayer is close at hand, and watching with in- terest the public expenditure. Cross (which is of course, Hepburn) is talking twaddle when he suffvfosts thi'i we stop our annual elections merely tc "win the war." The only iiidicntion of how he thinks it will help, is appartmtly on the ground of economy. If We are to win the war by econ- omy, why not stop everything that means an outlay of money Wly have Parliament meet in session? Save the m6ney for bullets. Why run tho railways? Or stores? If econ- omy is the wat.'hword, why not let Ottawa run the .show, an I dissolve our Legislatures? There's lots of foolishness wc could do, if it were just a matter of follow- ing the politicians. Friends and neighbors gathered on Tuesday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Tyson, who, were recently married, and presented them with a miscellaneous shower. The first part of the evening was spent In dancing, and at the lunch hour a nicely worded address wan read to the yOung couple, who had been asked to occupy the chairs in front of those present. In response both Mr. and Mrs. Tyson thanked their friends and expressed appreciation for the lovely gifts they had received. Mrs. Tyson was formerly Miss Daisy Heather. They will reside on the groom's farm on the townline. Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Taylor of Creemore spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Herb Taylor. Mr. Hugh Davidson of Camp Bor- den visited recently with relatives here. Mr. and Mrs. John Brown spent a day the past week with Mrs. Brown's mother near Markdale. A large crowd gathered in Rob Roy hall Friday evening to offer congratu- lations and to spend a social evening with Mr. and Mrs. Harold Fre'ethy, who were married recently. Dancing was indulged in until the lunch hour, when the presentation was made. Mr. Russell Cameron read a congratula- tory address and Messrs. W. Essland, M. Bristow, E. MuUin and W. Black presented Mr. and Mrs. Freethy with an occasional chair and small table, on behalf of their many friends. Mr. Freethy expressed appreciation on behalf of himself and his wife for the gifts, after which lunch was served and dancing r&umed. ceVlon LAKE FISHING DECREASING J During our holiday we sptniU ^ shiirt time fishing fov lake troll^ ,;t Lions Head and were fortunate in landing thirteen fine fish in about four hours. The fishin ' was extra good. Why? This is th-> seasgn for the fixh to come into shallow water for spawning purposes ai'd nro then a prey for the fiHherman with nv»tii and line.
