The Eugenia Hydro lake has never been so low as it is at present, and this condition is reflected throughout the various Ontario systems. The users of Hydro in Flesheiton have not been co-operating and the consumption ol power does not show very much re- duction. The Commission has allot- te<l 825 kilowatts for Flesherton'- daily consumption, and on Mondax this amount was exceeded by 450 k.w., and this Wednesday mornin« reading showed 175 k.w. too high. Lights will have "^o be turned off ii a room when not in use, toasters placed On the shelf, the use of elect- ric sto-es and neaters curtailed and other savings made. The stre lights in the village are turned of, each night at 2 ajn. and the busin- ess places have cut out the sign and window lighting. The creamery is closing at five p.m. in an effort to save power. Greatei* savings will have to b made in the homes and the house wife enters the picture. The alter- native, as given by the Provincia Hydro Commiission on Monday, is to cut off the power at stated inter- vals each day. Let's all get together and do our best to save power in every way possible, so that we can get our allotment down to where it is supposed to be.

Fi^sherton Took Three Game Series From Dunaik Flesherton took the post-season Softball series with Dundalk, by win- ning Friday night 15-12. They wâ€"o down 12-9 going into the last Inateir but with some hefty slugging tied the game on Andrews' single which brought in two runs and, with two on, Bob Turney hit a home run iato light field and the game was a<rer. Flesherton scored five runs in tfea first inning and Dundalk four, and in the second Dumialk took the lead witl> two i-uns and three more in lAm fourth to make the count 9-5 and three more in the sixth to take lead again, after Flesherton had tied the game with four runs in the fourth only to have the locals come throusrk with a hearty six-hit barrage tar six runs. "Hank" Best hit a tremen- dous home run into centre fldld hi the first inning to score two ahead of him. Haw was playing well back at the time and even his speedy running failed to catch up with the ball. It was a fitting climax to m most successful season for Mm Flesherton team. The game Friday night was noticeable for the absence of Dundalk rooters. Maybe if they had have enjoyed more moral sap- port from the sideline? they migM have copped that game.
