From whatever lat- itude they come they are assured of a warm welcome. Bloor street Toronto, is being' provided with a sidewalk pretty nearly as wide as many pavements The sportice autoists vary the mon- ] otony by taking to ;he walk when tired of the pavement. Some are even now practising the change. | • • • ! The Canadian Weekly Newspaper A.ssociation at its recent meeting, ' passed a resolution in favor of a ' "Canadian Flap." They had no ' fault to find with the Union Jack,; but simply wanted something more' to wave. i • . , j "The failure of the Liquor Control Act as a temperance measure has" asserts the Xew Outlook, "become notorious in Ontario." And the condemnation is not coming: from' churches or temperance societies al- one â€" "business men are fiercely de- ' nouncing this thing Ihat is debaun- ' ching youth of the province. The repeal of the law, and it-:i replace- ment with a prohibitary measure, at no distant date, is advocated by very many well wishers of the province, i * " . I The old saw is having verificat- ion in the experience of belated holders of last year's northwest wheat crops. They have proved ' that it is indeed an ill wind that blows nobody good. Lack of rain and very warm weather is stated to' have reduced ithe prospective con for 1929 by almost one-half, and the holders of many millions of bushels of the 1028 yield have in consequence' been receiving a return on their hold \ ings greatly in advance of the price paid prifir to the persistent drought There is not likely to be a bumpei ; crop in Western Canada this year' and there may be some compensation ' if higher prices are realized fo"such yield as there is. In Ontario gen- ' erally we are likely to have average crops. I TENDERS WANTED For taking off old shingles, and reshingling the Flesherton Public School.

Normal Results Tht examination results of •the N o • m a 1 School examination.'? throughout Ontario Normal Schools gives the following former Flesher- ton high school pupils as having ob- tained their interim Ist class cer- tificates.

Miss Jeanette Cargoe attended North Bay Normal, while the others were students at Toronto Normal School. We also notice that Miss Almeda W. Weber of Kimberley se- cured her interim second class cer- tificate. ed that Flesherton will enter a team in the tournament here in Old Home Week. Let's go, and have another t,'»>;d ball team in Flesherton, as in former years. No excuse. ) MISS MACPHAIL NOW TRAV- | ELLING IN UNITED STATES Misa Agnes Macphail, M. P. left Canadian shores on Tuesday, not to re' urn until fall. She has tommen- soLDiERs retur:>ed Tiie Flesherton members of "D" Company of the Grey Regiment ar- rived back from camp on Saturday afternoon, under the command of Majo- A. E. Bellamy and report an excellent time at 'he Divisional camp at Hur.tsville. Private Emerson -Mc- Killop of Flesherton was the best shot in "D" Company and Privates Bill Put'on and George Sled were awarded Jiarksmon badges for musketry. The Grey Regiment al- so brought back the Carmichael cup for shooting, which was won by the Sin-.-.'oc Regiment the past two years and previous to ^hat was held by the Grey Regiment. Will Be Lacrosse Lacrosse lovers will be able to see two hifrh class team-s ficm Toronto i.i action at Flesherton on Monday, August .")th, at the Old Home Week Celebration. Swansea junior cham- pions of 1928 will have as their op- prr.c:,t.s the Toronto Keystone jun- iois, runners-up in 1928. This game should be full of action all the way throufirh, as the kids arc noted for the high brand of lacrosse they play. Canada's national gatne is little en- ough known in this part, as it has not been played for some years. HIGHWAY DETOURS Detours will add to the joys of travelling on Provincial Highway No. 10 for several weeks to come. While some consideration is under- stood to have been given a plan to do one side of the road at a time (in Caledon ountain section at any rate) it does not appear to have looked prood enough to be given a trial, and there is now a big detour from south of Orangeville to Victoria Corners. The detour is oficially described this way: "Noithbound traffic for Orangeville detour at Victoria Cor- ners westerly 2^4 miles, thence nor- therly throhgh Cheltenham 2% miles thence westerly three quarters of a mile, thence northerly to Belfount- ain 3'/t miles, thence northerly 2 miles, thence easterly 2',i mil. thencs â- northerly 3 miles to Alton, thence easterly one mile thence northerly .1 miles thence easterly one mile in- to Orangeville." Some are going oast from Orangeville to Mono Mills and then south through Caledon E. and Weston to go to Toronto. With luck the complete paved highway from Shelburne to Toronto will be in use about the time of the Toronto Exhibition. â€" Free Press & Economist.

'U FLESHERTON & BASEBALL | Flesherton played ball at Inistoge gardeii party on Tuesday night of] last week and lost out to the Dun- dalk team by a small margin.' They again met the Dundalk nine on thei- ow 1 diamond at the celebration on July 12th, and up to the seventh inning the score was 4 all. This was one of the best games played on that diamond for seme years. But alack. After the seventh inning the Flesherton team went all to the dogs wiLh the blame on no one in partic- ular, and in two innings Dundalk err -scd the plate 12 times, making the score 16-4. Flesherton has the makings of a good team here and if the boys v.'ould only pet out to practice, they could put up a game worth while watching.

Greater Strength and durability THE Ford Steel Spoke (Drop Centre) wheel is an advanced step in engineer* ing and the result of exhaustive experimental tests. It is smart in appearance, extra strong, having a lasting finish, easy to clean and provides a simple method for mounting and demoimting the tire without tools and in a fraction of the time previously required. The steel rods or spokes, V^' in diameter, are elec- trically welded to rim and hub shclL The finish is enamel baked on steel. Possessing great resiliency and being one solid piece, these wheels have a sturdiness not approached by any other type. The Ford wheel eliminates loose, squeaking spokes and rims, pinched tubes, chipped or peeling finish, necessity of tire flap, misalignment of tires lue to carelessly mounted rims, and a host of other vheel and tire ills formerly encountered. It permits of easy steering and no drumming sound is created by the wind. There is in enormous amount of careful work necessary to build stretigth and service into the Ford Steel Spoke wheel, and the results justify the engineering study atid skill devoted to this feature of the Ford ear. //\^ ^'â- i^e it V^^t^=*^ ^ Yourself â€" y^^'^'C^ U there is no ;;/m"VX^y^ Better Test ^ Ford Car Features Ckoiet of colours 65 to as man an hour ^0â- Sor^e ptncer enpini Full laJ.'ocn tirta FnQy mclond tix-iTak4 n/tUm 4 Und*iDt kvdratiUt ikotk cbtorbtrt to to M men p«r ialUm of cuoHiM ShMtrvno! gtMm vindtkitU TStft pnef ianitton loth JMioMily ml bnt spkMp 1 â- *â- Â« Arrange for your demonstration ride with the neater Ford dealer H.
