I THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE Wednesday, Miarch 20, 1940 Electors of Grey-Bruce â- wi UDtESANOSENTLEMEN: I am Salieiting Your Support in this Eltction far tlie Following Reasans-- A â€" I believe that the King Government has successfully administered the affairs of Canada and should be returned to office. B â€" I believe that the Canadian war effort has been magnificent. This united effort was only possible under the leadership of Mr. Mackenzie King, virho recognized that his most important duty was to maintain the unity of Canada. C â€" I believe that the Government, by the appointment of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board has effectively controlled prices and prevented profit- eering â€" a lesson learned from the last war, _ ,^ D â€" I believe that if peace comes during the lifetime of this Parliament, as we hope it will, the Liberal Party offers the best means of re-establishing trade in Canada and promoting trade with other countries. E â€" I believe that Grey-Bruce requires representation in Ottawa by a follower of the party which will undoubtedly form the government of Canada. If you favor such a Policy â€" If you wish the King Govenunemt Returned Vote^HARRIS * First name on the ballot. Late Wm. Aldcorn y (By Priceville Correepondent) The funeral of the late Wm.

The next game was played in Mark- dale Saturday night, when Feversham reversed the count 8-4 and in the third game Monday night swamped the Priceville club with a avalanche of pucks to win 17-2, in one of the most one-sided scores ever seen here. Several members of Priceville team were ill, but played, and, while Price- ville had a goodly margin of the plav. the Feversham lads watched their cheeks closely and 'n the break-awavs from their own end, turned on the speed and their passing attacks to baffle their opponets and not the rubber. The fourth game '= being played in Markdale this Wednesday night. 21 PIGS IN LITTER- EASTER DANCE will be held in Robinson's Hall, Feversham MONDAY, MARCH 25, '40 Music by Wilf Johnston's Orchestra Admission : 35c and 25c Annual Easter DANCE will be held in the Fraternal Hall, Flesherton MONDAY, MARCH 25, 1940 Music by- Florence Sauer and Orchestra A big time for all.
