THURSTON & SON, Proprietors New Road Foreman Mr. Norman Stoddart of town has received the appointment of road fore- man on this section of the County higiiways system, succeeding the late G. E. Henry. His beat is from Flesh- ertOM to Singhampton and from Maple Valley througrh Badjeros to the town line. He also has charge of the roao from the gravel into Feversham. His new duties commenced on Monday of this week. Osprey Sub-Overseers Appointed For Year Returned Home Mr. Jas. Robertson arrived home on Saturday after spending the past few months in Toronto. Mrs. Robertson expects to arrive shortly. Mr. and Mrs. Robertson enjoyed a cruise through the British West Indies and were as far south as Trinidad. The change from the warm tropical clim- ate to that which we enjoy at the present time, Mr. Robertson said is almost too much to bear. Some folk are curious as to the origin of the $15,000 Hon. Duncan Marshall paid' for a prize Scottish bull. Perhaps Santa Claus did it. EASTER FLOWERS Order your Easter lillies and flow- ers for Easter. â€" W. A. Hawken, Flesehrton, phone 17.

Gardiner, Minister of' .Agriculture, by which he proposes to| advance $6,500,000 to wheat growers! in westei-n Canada who received less than 60 cents a bushel in 1930. The Govei-nment, however, Rolds the wheat as collateral. A much smaller am- junt (5200,000) is to be paid to pro-' iucers of oats as compensation.
