A deputation of ratepayers from the South side of the Township was a-i gain on hand to press their claim toj having the 30th side road opened;! this project has, without doubt, been ! dealt with by Councils for the pastj tweiity-five years and I expect the! Bame old promises have been made; however, sometime that road will have to be opened. | Another matter brought to the at- tention of the Council was the ex- Jjenditures which Jiave been made on the Coutts Drain, as past Financial Statements are supposedl to tell the story, the Clerk was instructed to delve into them and report on his findings. Sheep- worrying dogs came in for considerable discussion on receipt of Valuers reports to the amount ofl $358.00. Opinions were wccressed by members of the council that a bounty should be paid for the des- troying of these marauders, however, it was laid over until the next meeting when it will be thoroughly dealt with.

Jewels Recovered Met At Orangeville Two young men from Toronto were caught on Friday last after they had ' cleared some scrap iron from a vacant farm in Artemesia township. Mr. Chas. Stafford of Toronto Line North was working on his farm on the west ; backline and heard what he thought ! were section men working on the railway. Shortly afterward he heard a motor start up and leave. He be- came su.'picious and upon investiga- tion found where a truck had been present and had left, travelling south. .â- V neighbor had seen the truck on the road heading toward Fleshei^oii and ; with this information notified Pro\nn- cial Constable Cooke, who detained the men when they arrived in town â-  with their load. Restitution was ! made with Mr. Stafford, it is said, i when a sum of money was paid over | for the old iron, and the young men piven a solemn lecture on their act with a warning that their next esca- pade would not end so quietly.

Memorial Fund Needs Your Help The Memorial fund had a splendid boost this week from the Toronto branch of the Flesherton Old Boys' and Girls' Association when three sub- scriptions were sent in from Mr. Bur- ton E. Field the energetic secretary. the names of whom appear in the list helow. Flesherton citizens are very backward in sending in .their dona- tions. Over one thousand dollars is needed to erect a proper memorial and if everybody will get behind the movement the objective could be reached in a very short time. No matter whether the amount is 25 cents or ten dollars it will be welcome. Don't delay, send in your donation at once to either F. H. W. Hickling, G. A. MoTavish or The .A.dvance -office.
