Wednesday, May 9, 1045 rKn MvKSHKRTON ADVAN^CE VICTORIA CORNERS Our news this week is mingfled with high hopes, sorrow, anxiety iind the usual "come and go". Foremost in our minds is the an- ious high hope and fervent prayer that V-E Day may pronounced very, very, soon. To Mr. Jos. Parks and Miss Marg- aret Mills, Saugeen Junction and Toronto respectively, we extend our profound sympathy in their loss of a loving wife and mother, in the pas- sing of Mrs. Jos. Parks at her home, Saugeen Junction, early Monday af- ternoon. Our thoughts are with the Arthur Jackson family in their anxious moments re two telegrams received stating that thth- eldest son. Harold, had been seriously wounded about the legs, when actively engaged in battle on the Italian front. The first telegram revealed grave facts, while the second proved somewhat more encouraging. We are very glad to know that Harold's name has been released from the dangerously ill list and trust that his wounds may not be as severe as was at first an- ticipated. More word will be eagerly awaited in the immediate future. Mr. ami Mrs. Wilfred Gallagher visited on Sjilurday with their ne- phew, J. D. Wiltshire, at his home near Bethel. They were pleased to find his condition somewhat improv- ed. J. D. has been quite ill for several weeks, spending part of the time in Lord Dufferin Hospital, Orangeville. Mr, and Mrs. E. A. Stinson and family spent Sunday â- with Mi's. Stinson's grandmother, Mrs Bolen and parents, Mr. and Mrs. Bert Henderson, Corbetton. Despite her advanced age of 87 years on June 2, 1945, Mrs Boleil'? mind is very keen and by listening to the rddio is very loariuHl in current events. iMV. and Mr.s. Elwyn Ferris and little son, Lylc, visited on Sunday with Mrs. Ferris' parenits, Mr, and Mrs. Em Hawtoii, Feversham, Miss Ruby Copeland is assisting: in the home of Mr .and Mrs. Carl Bradley, KtiToicoke, and Mis's Hazel Copeland in the home of Mr, and Mrs. Nelson Copeland, Toronto, Mr, and Mrs, Jas. Batchelor ac- conupanied by Mr. and Mi-s. Wm. Batchelor, Carolyn and Jimmie, Pro- ton Station, visited over the week end witli Mr. and Mrs. George Mc- Gregor and family, Preston. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Bradley and family, Etibocoke, and Miss Ruth Richardson, Toronto, spent Wednes- day with Mrs. J, H. Richardson and Viotta. Eggs The producers loss on eggfs is 5c to 6c per dozen when eggs are slightly soiled and are placed in 'B' grade rather than 'A Large' grade. It is not, therefore, worth 5c to 6c a dozen to you to keep your eggs clean and fresh before mark- eting? It will help us speed up the grading too. Poultry We need live and dressed hens and are paying: .-\live . . 22c (A grade, over 5 lbs.) Dressed . . 26c (A grade, over 4J/^ lbs.) Open Saturday Nights Flesherton Creamery & Produce Engagemeni Mrs. Martha Plester wishes to an- nounce the engagement of her youngest daughter, Dorothy Eliza- beth' to Wright Alexander Marshall, son of Mr. nad Mrs. Fred Marshall. The wedding will take place in May. Presentation To Soldiers Two Flesherton soldiers were hon- ored at a dance in the town hall on Mondiiy evening, when Stuff Sergt. E. ffliiss and L.Cpl. Wes Armstrong, just returned from ovesreas, were presented with a sum of money by the Welfare League. Reeve K. Betts welcomed the iren home and was fol- lowed by short si)eeches hy H. A. MeCauley and H. W. Kernahan. Mrs. P. W Duncan and Mrs. John Brack- enbury presented the gifts. Both the returned men expressed their appre- ciation of being home and thanked the Welfare League tor 'he monthly cigarette ration sent to them when they were overseas and uhey wished to return the money to the League to be used to send more cigarettes to the boys yet in the fighting zone. The officers of the League accepted their thoughtfulness and stated that the cigarettes would be sent over in t'-.eir name. The dance was held un- der the auspices of the Flesherton Post of the Canadian Legion. An interesting: angle to this presenta- tion was the fact that both these men knew each other in Italy, as they were both with the same unit. U.S. farmers received $20 billion I in cash income last year â€" far ahead of the $14.6 billion previous record made in 1919. Phone 66 Angus Avis, Manager CREDIT Auction sall COWS, CATTLE.

Flour milling is one of Canada's oldest industries, the first mill in Canad« being ' ilt at Port Royal now Annapolis, N.S., hi 1607. A Chance to Go Fishin' . . . ! YES, and the right to go fishin' . , . the right to enjoy the simple, piea!>ar)t things of life! Picnics by the river â€" week-end trips in the old family jalopy â€" these are some of the things that your boy is fighting for today! And he won't be able to enjoy those things, unless we at home fight /or him against inflation â€" unless we make sure when he gets back his dollar will be worth a dollar. To protect his dollar, we must realize NOW the dangers of careless, unnecessary buying! We must buy only what we need â€" nerer buy two where one will do! We mu.st not evade rationing or price control, or deal with black markets. If we break the rules, our country â€" the country he's fighting for will stirt on that spiral of prices known as inflation! Remember! Every time ONE of us breaks ONE of these rules, we're lowering the value of our soldier's dollar. We're helping to shoot prices sky-high . . . and sky-high prices mean inflation. The value of every dollar m Canada goes down, and when the men overseas come back their dollar might buy. only a quarter's worth of goods! We can prevent inflation! We can give our fighting man his "right to go fishin' ", if we make sure his dollar will be worth a dollar, when he comes home. We can't give back to him his lost years, or his lost youth. But if we keep up the fiji'it against inflation, he can look iorward to pleasant, .satisfvinc; livin(» â€" the Canadian way of life! Make this Pledge Today! I pledge myself to do my part in fighting inflation : By obicrving rationing and avoiding black markets in any shape or form. By ratpacting pric* cenltola and other anti-inflation measures, and re- frsininj* from careless and unneces- sary buying, I will nut buy two where one will du, nor will I buy a "new" where an "old" will do.
