CREAMERY SAFE ROBBED OF $152.00 I Wife Still in Scotland Flesherton creamery was burglar- ized early Friday morning of last week, when the safe wa^ blown, tiie thieves making away with cash to the amount of $162, a number of postage stamps and a non-negotiabl cheque for $750.00. The robbery was discovered by Mr. John Stewart, an employee, when he opened the creamery for business <at 7:S0 Friday morning, and found the doors of the large re- frigerator wide open. iHe thought this strange as he had closed the doors the previous day, and he made further investigation and found that the door of the teafe in the office had been blown and the Arm's books and papers were strewn in confusion over the floor. Nothing had been overlooked. A check was made on the butter and egg stock, but none was found missing. Manager Avife was soon on the scene and Constable H_ Black made his investigation, but as yet the thieves have not been ap- prehended. The robbers made their entrance through the rear door of the cream- ery. After the safe had been opened, the pick owned by the cream- ery and a hollow tube were used to complete the opening of the safe door. Messrs. Louis Rapp and Har- old Borinsky of Markdale are own- er's of the creamery. It is thought that the time of the robbery was around three a.m. It has been usual in safe robberies to take the safe with them in their get-away, but it was impossible to do this afe the safe was embedded in cement, and was all the more solid to make a good blowing job. It will take considerable work and effort to remove the safe safe from the floor.

Mild Weather Prevails Just for the record wt' might men- tion the long mild sipell we are now experiencing. The thaw started last Friday and by Monday all the snow had disappeared with the exceqition of ice on the streets and roads. This Wednesday morning rain is falling and there does not seem to be â- .my prospect of the weather tightening up. The ice in the skating rink's is also taking a beating and will have to be built up before there is any more I'.ctivities there.

We are informed however by the Manager of the Walkerton Office, A. J. Schnurr, that such offices will continue as Na- tionnal Employment Offices and will service the public in matters relating to Employment Service, Unemploy- ment Insurance and Army Personnel Rehabilitation Employers are invited to place their orders for help re- quired, while applicants for employ- ment are asked to register at the local office for emploj-ment where they will be given every assistance possible in securing such. The Walk- erton Employment Office, Mr. Schnurr, stated is particular";, in- terested in assisting the Dischcrgees in their rehabilitation. When they are requiring information relative to Department of Veteran's .Affairs, or in the niattsu- of employment they are invjced to visit the National Em- ployment Office where Officers in charge of the particular department will give them every attention.

Some^vhere back in the sunset Where loveliness never diels She lives in a land of glory Midst the gold and blue of the skies And we, who loved her clearly, Whose passing haS brought many tears, Will cherish her memory always.

Peacetime motorists are gomg to benefit :from the experiences of the rough-riders of the British Eighth Army whose vehicles had to carry them over hundred's of miles of trackless desert, under a scorching sun. Tliere. motoring pi-esented many problems for the United King- dom's car industry to Solve, and the solutions are being incorporated in new models now in production. New ideas in suspension and Springirrg were developed to make desert tra- velling more comfortable; in peace- time cars these new ideas will take the crick out of the neck and the pain out of the back of long journ- eys. In the deSert grit was an en- emy. New devices for sealing re- volving joints, such as are found in I gear boxes and back axles, will help to comibat the ravages of duSt and grit and make car maintenance eas ier. Air-conditioning was essential. It was so developed that even inside tanks and armoured cai^. men were able to -breathe comfortably. New cars will incorporate similar air- conditioning devices, and motorists will be able to regulate the tempera- ture as they wisb Colours won't fade in the Sun or wear away ir wind and rain. For desert warfare, new paints fjide in t"e sun or wear away in wind and ivsir. For desert Warfare, new paints v.-'re developed which will stand up to weather and sun, and keep their colour in the most difficult of atmospheric condi- tion's. The.^e paints wi'l be used for 100.000 new cars which the Uni- ted Kingdom's motor industry is planning to build before June 1946.

Mr. and Mrs. Morrison are iraB known and highly esteemed through- out the community for their kindly and friendly feeling toward thek fellow man. Mr. Morrison was bom in 1S76 on the Morrison homestead, on the Collingwood Gravel, about four miles east of Maxwell. Mrs. Morrison was born near Rob Roy in 1876, on the farm now owned by Mr. Clifford Bristow. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Pallister, moved to Ma.xweii, to the farm now owned by Mr. Sam Grummett, when she was six years of age. In 1896, Mr. and Mi-S. Mon-ison were married at the home of the bride's parents, by ReT. Legatte of Maxwell Methodist Church. The bridesmaid was Miis Julia Guy, later Mrs. Levi Pallister (now deceased) and the best man, Mr. Edmund Pallister, brother of the bride (now deceased). Following their marriage they liv- ed for some time on the farm now owned by M'r. Jim Brownridge, where they lived until recently, and which farm is now occupied by their son, George. In 1925 Mr. and Mtb. Morrison took a trip through the Can.idifln West to the Pacific Coast. This fall Mr. and Mrs. Morrison built a new house in the village and were privileged to celebrate their Golden Wedding there. The family presented their par- ents with a dinette suite. The Max- well United Church W.A. presented a tablecloth. Several other gifts and numerous cards of congratula- tions were received from friendS and neighbors. During the afternoon and evening friends and neighbors called to of- fer their congratulations. Mr. Mor- rison is 78 and Mrs. Morrison iS 70. Both are enjoying fairly good health and we wish them many years of hapipiness in their new home. Incidentally Mr. and Mrs. Morri- â-  son remember th* weather on New Year's Day. 1896, as being very cold and stormy. Springhill Farm Forum Farm Forum met this wee': at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Richar( Allen.
