The old mill here towers over one end of the mill pond with a bridge across the dam giving access to the highway. At one time a head of water all year «round provided power. Today the mill wheel is so geared that eletric power can operate the stones if water fails. Some people blame deforestation for the lack of water. â€" Mr. E.

Like two huge coins face to face, the upper stone revolves over the fact of the lower, which is staâ€" tionary. Wheat enters at the top in the centre and it works its way slowly out to the rims of the stones where it comes out as the good oldâ€" fashioned whole wheat flour. Breslau is a quiet little village whkere community life is best reâ€" flected in the fact that the postâ€" office, presided over by Mr. Cressâ€" man, is located in the flour mill. He operated the mill prior to his retireâ€" ment. Breslau grew up around this mill, which was built 108 years ago when the Grand was a big river all the year round. There are few such mills left in the country but in most cases the stones and waterpower have been abandoned, but this one at Breslau seems to have survived. Tigers started off the period strong with Bauer all but scoring on several rushes. With Dyte in the penalty box Murray broke from a Waterloo power play. Couch chased and tripped him, but as Murray went to the ice he pushed the puck under Haynes, who was falling to make the stop. Grigor made it 30 when he broke from a power play. Haynes made the stop but the puck rolled oyer his body. The game roughened near the end of the period and Tigers pressed hard with the man advanâ€" tage through penalties. Vrooman scored the lone Waterloo counter when he took Bauer‘s pass from a fiveman attack to score. The gaff was heavy and the lighter Tigers found the bruising game cutting down their speed.

A rotten egg made its appearance on the ice, supposedly from an ired fan. ‘The Falls demonâ€" strated their superiority in all phases of the game. They were faster and their plays featured intricate passâ€" ing that fooled the Tigers. With Bauer back in the linoup the Tigers were much stronger offensive ly than last Friday in Niagara. The first few minutes on a scramble around the Waterloo net Allen picked up Morrison‘s pass from behind the net to beat Haynes, who was sprawled flat on the ico. The goal made Tigers fight harder, but Mowâ€" ers in the Brights‘ net, was ‘good. Couch and Vrooman had several chances but the Falls‘ goalie played his shots carefully. Grigor and Hause got minors for mixing. The rough and tough second period produced enough extra color for any two games as the boys went to it hammer and tongs. No less than six penalties were handed out as the players threatened to turn the game into a real freeâ€"forâ€"all. Many of the penalties were for mixing with the Falls‘ squad, laying on the hickory heavy. Krueger went off for Tigers with a bead injury, while Brenchley was also burt.

"My friend (Meinzinger) and Judge Clement were to meet some time ago to ‘sift the wheat from the chaff" but apparently nothing has beâ€" come of it." Mayor Gordon asserted it was "high time" that Ald. Meinzinger named three or four men whom he was accusing. He denied he had failed to act on the matter and carty out his duty. } "We have listened to a lot of talk today, and might say that when I was a child I used to whistle to keep my courage up.

N Magistrate Blake contended that every complaint submitted so far in the meeting by Ad. Meinzinger was against the commission. He said he would be willing to sit at another meeting in the future "providing all charges were presented by the indiâ€" viduals in person".
